Today my good food choice was...

Millet with tomatoes and chilpolte seasoning.  Vit B17.

My colostrum and organic raw milk drink in am with peaches and blueberries, agave, vanilla, probiotics, some of my supplements like noni powder and sea calcium.  I drink this and am not hungry for hours.

Tried kamut and that is not good with anything sweet, so going to try with olive oil, chives and garlic tomorrow.

Ladies, masy I ask you? Do you actually lose weight with healthy diet? Because I do. I thinking sometimes; is it normal OR???????/

T hank you, SAB, where did you read anti-cancer? AND what is frittata? where to get a recipy?

Hi olgah! Here is a recipe similar to what I do (I leave out the potatoes and the milk, and cut the cheese in half...use omega 3 eggs and organic veggies and cheese if possible.)  Basically, it is an unturned omlett!  I finish mine off in the oven. There are lots of variations and you can use whatever veggies you have on hand.

 Anti-cancer a new way of life is a wonderful book by Dr. David Servan-Schreiber about battling his brain cancer. After his accidental diagnosis he devoted his remaining years to cancer research.  He said the pillars of self-care (in addition to your conventional care) are diet, exercise, environment and mind-body connection.  I'm sure it is available from Amazon or other online book sellers, and probably in most bookstores. We lost him last summer, but I think his advice is good.

HI eveyone, found a new place to eat out at! I had carrot and chard soup! It was wonderful and the entree was grilled veggies - potato, zucchini (fanned out) and tomatoes!  If I would have had my baggie of chia seed in my purse I would have sprinkled into the soup!

SAB I've never cooked chia seed? I put in my cheerios with almond milk or sprinkle on salads etc. I've seen a drink with it too, but probably full of sugar....

Olga Whole foods has a frittata "flour" from chick peas. It was so easy to make, just add water and bake! maybe a little oil too.  I added the pulp from juicing that day into the mixture. It was great. 

As for the weight loss, I ate strictly vegan, no processed foods, no added sugar for 8 months, didn't loose a pound but didn't gain one either.  Was still in treatment though.  I felt so much better though. 

Monday and I'm going to try and cook a few healthy  things to have in the house for a busy week.  Some mushroom barley soup (maybe olgah's recipe,) split pea soup, curried lentils (an experiment) and some brown rice. 

ok everyone must be on good food hiatus?? like I was all weekend?

Will check in later. 

had a blueberry, strawberry, banana, spinach smoothie for breakfast, and a 

hummus, salsa, red bell pepper, spinach sandwich for lunch.

also, tried kukicha tea for the first time today.. not bad! 

talapia and roasted veggies - what really made it taste good? my DH made it and it was ready when I walked in the door from work!

I picked up some baby bella mushrooms and will stuff them with multigrain breadcrumbs and a touch of organic mozerrella and serve them with multigrain angel hair.  I have about 10 tomatoes in a bowl that must be used, so I picked up some fresh basil and garlic and will dice it all together for the pasta. It's Italian night!

Sagina I stole your idea again. I made tumeric chicken breast tonight (DH had fish) served over spring greens.  Topped it with a mango and strawberry salsa. Dressed it with a lemon and a drizzle of evoo.

Hi SAB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm back.....it's been some crazy weeks over here.  

I tried a meat substitute the Smart brand, mexican style ground crumbles.  Wasn't so bad, and 0 fat, 0 cholesterol....not bad.

While my DH was recouping in the hospital last week, I got to read a good chunk of Anti Cancer.  The best immune fighters for breast cancer are listed as garlic, leeks, scallions, and brussel sprouts.  He also talks about the tumeric/black pepper mixing with olive oil and how good that is and it's an anti inflammatory.  I think I'm eating too many mushrooms, making myself swell..... 

I ate  A LOT of those Smart crumbles and soy burgers before my diagnosis. A LOT A LOT. Plus I used a soy protein powder for shakes for breakfast. It is all processed soy. I wonder if that level of intake contributed to my highly ER+ cancer.  I do not eat ANY of that stuff now - EVER.  I do eat tofu maybe twice/month but that's all. No soy milk, no soy burgers or crumbles.

I encourage other ER+ ladies to consider this as well. 

I just finished my supper which was a toasted whole wheat pita stuffed with a salsa made from fresh chopped: mango, vidalia onion, green pepper, red pepper, celery, roma tomato, avacado and crumbled bleu cheese.

Breakfast was cottage cheese mixture (4T organic CC, 2T Flaxseed oil, 2T freshly ground flaxseed) topped with 1 organic sliced apple sprinkled with cinnamon and a teaspoon of honey. Lunch was a smoothie ( 1/2 frozen banana, 2% organic milk and blueberries) and salad of 1 c Romaine w/flaxoil and apple cider vinegar dressing.
