In reply to: JANINE posted an update in the group Weight & Obesity I am still awestruck by my weekend cholesterol reading, which was down 36 points IN 30 DAYS!.

I think I will have to try that recipe. I have been wanting to crunch on and I love oven-roasted veggies. This sounds like a fun, 100% healthy treat.

Please let me know if you figure out zucchini chips. When I slide and roast them they’re usually limp because they have so much water, I guess. I’d love to make them crisp!
-
This is ”slice” instead of ”slide”. Oops.

I have the zuchinni chips a try yesterday in two small batches, since my oven is really small.. However, all I got was soft oven baked zuchinnis. I don’t know what I did wrong but I will keep you posted on it.

That’s what I’ve gotten before too! Do keep us posted! Thanks.

Thanks Lynn – I am gonna try those too. I keep hearing about them but wasn’t sure how to make them. I love kale any way shape or form so a chip should be awesome!

Hi, Lynn,
Thanks. I think having your tests done more often helps-at least it has for me. I can’t tell you how stunned and thrilled I was with those unexpected results! The cost of having the more detailed testing for one test is less than the deductible for the MD visit. Of course, if I wanted to have more than one test done, the MD would be…[Read more]-

Love it! You know, for the life of me I can’t explain why I thought legumes were banned and the advanced plan.

Thanks for missing me, Janine! I realized it had been a while, so I checked in. I’ve just been sort of focused on doing this and still nursing recovery from GERD, which has gone from a 9 or 10 level of intensity after stopping the acid blockers to about a 3 or 4 and sometimes hardly at all.

Thanks for the two recipes. They sound delicious, seriously. I love garlic and the combo with spinach sounds kind of like Saag Paneer,which I adore, and the curried dish sound like something great to have for lunch. Glad to know it freezes well. I am all about getting it done in big batches!

Hi Anna – nice to hear from you again! The fact that your GERD has gone down that much is wonderful. What a great incentive and fabulous side effect to this new way of eating!

Thanks Susie, yes, it is wonderful!

Hi, Anna,
I have never experienced GERD, but if it is anything like the indigestion I felt when expecting my daughter, than you have all my sympathies!

Hi, Lynn,
Well, first of all, welcome. You have come to the right place to reverse those health problems By following the program carefully, you should soon be shouting ”hooray”. Taking the first step is always the hardest. -
welcome, Lynn. you have indeed came to the right place, you will be pleasantly surprised but what will transpire during this journey you are going to undertake.
