Maverick: o fi :DAlina: a fi cu ceilalti se desdoevte, in anumite momente ale vietii tale, a nu fi chiar un privilegiu si este foarte posibil sa nu ai ce darui sau ce impartasi

Very good, most tutorials ecsdribe processes as if they were talking to engineers with lots of assumptions, this was easy. Thank you very much.

Congratulations to Right Media!I'm sitting in a Hilton hotel room in Eugene, Oregon, niavhg flown in this evening to spend tomorrow with the some of the super folks at Right Media's Direct Media Exchange, who will eventually become the newest members of the Yahoo! publis

You HAVE to try 'Caring Candies' ... they are fantastic and have NO SUGAR .... a friend of mine has started selling them here in the US and they are amazing!!!!

Good luck!

Ellen,
Have you killed anyone yet? The first ten days are an adjustment, but after that you will feel wonderful and have ten times the energy (however I can't imagine you have any more energy).

I have been on this program since April 2009 and have loss 45 pounds and 15 inches, so I am thrilled beyond belief. Today (2/09/10) I started on Jorge's 7/4 challenge and hope to reach that 50# mark by February 15th!

I am so excited you are doing this program. Please tell your viewers that the weight loss is secondary to the health benefits. I have lupus and FM and until late April I was taking ten or more pain pills a day. Now I may need one or two a week AND that is usually because I mess up and eat something with sugar in it. I always pay the price, and let me tell you, it is not worth it.

I'm going to keep up with your journey.

I just gave up sugar too!

Okay.

I'm going sugar free as of today.

By the way how long do we have to do this!!!???lol

Already had to spit out something three different times -- turns out I eat scraps!

(off of kid's plates that is....not like out of a trough or anything...)

i LOVE U ELLEN AND I LOVE WHAT U DO EVERYDAY
THIS SUGAR THING SUCKS YOU NEED SUGAR ITS GREAT DONT DENY YOUR SELF THE GOOD STUFF LOL ANYWAY I WOULD LOVE FOR YOU TO KNOW I AM FROM CANADA ONTARIO A LITTLE TOWN AND MY 2 AND 5 YEAR OLD LOVE YOU WE LOVE ELLEN YOU ARE SO GREAT

Ellen;

I am following a low sugar eating plan as well and I feel great. But don't give up on all alcohol products. Wine has very little sugar. The sugar originally in the grapes is what the yeast feeds on while it ferments. I didn't believe this either, but I googled it and it's true. I am following Jorge Cruise's Belly Fat Cure which limits your sugar intake to 15 gms a day and he lists white wine as 0 sugar, 0 carbs, and red wine as 0 sugar, 1 carb. So go ahead,enjoy a glass or two of wine.


Hey Ellen-
Have you heard of Jorge Cruise? you should check him out. I also gave up sugar about 3 months ago following his program. I switched to only stevia and stevia products for the sugar part.
Glad to follow along with you!

Good for you Ellen! I gave up sugar when I found out I was pregnant 7 months ago. It wasn't too bad until the cravings hit...need I say more? Since then I have adopted a "12 step mentality" around it....
Just for today my thoughts will be on my health,
living and enjoying life without the use of sugar!
One day at a time Ellen, much love and the best of luck!

Hey!

Day two for me, and I feel better about my body. Oprah had a show on Diabetes and it really reinforced my decision to go sugar free with you. Thanks!

Hi Ellen,

First of all I was so excited to hear you have gone Vegan and now giving up processed sugar is amazing. I have been Vegan for two years and vegetarian since I was 19, now 51. I feel great and love that I can eat all the fruit I want. I'm on a mostly raw Vegan diet and hope to some day take the plunge all the way raw. I would like to invite you to look at the website OrganicAthlete.org http://www.organicathlete.org/ And also think about joing us for the Tour d'Organics this august... it will be fun and all the rest stops are local organic farms and the food is amazingly Vegan.

I think it's awesome what your doing, hopefully more of the world will learn from you and this earth can become a better place.

Love,

I just wanted to say good for you sugar is had to give up. But I have given up sugar and trying to eat better.But it is hard because you want the food you cant have.I think it is good to eat rite but it don't always happen for allot of people.I have been trying for a while now it is hard but I do the best I can .I use to weigh 300 lbs and now I'm at about 194 lbs. If I can do it any one can I'm still working at it.I do 1 day at a time.OK Ellen good luck to you and all me best to you and your co workers that are on it with you.Good bye from La's Vegas NV.

Hi Ellen:

I thoroughly enjoy your show. It let's me get my laugh on everyday.

I was wondering if you were going to celebrate Mardi Gras and if so, will you be eating a piece of King Cake?

Thanks for the laughs and good luck with the sugar fast.

Need a great dessert? Take 8 frozen strawberries, blend them in a blender until they are powder like. Put it in a bowl with a packet of stevia and about a tablespoon of Walden Farms dipping chocolate. Mix and enjoy. I've lost 30lbs since Oct. by cutting back on sugar and carbs. GOOD LUCK TO YOU.

Thank you for clarifying your No Sugar Plan. I have done Kathy Freston's Wellness Cleanse, which you know includes No Sugar. I just finished my third "21 day cleanse" in the last year and a half. You will feel FANTASTIC!! Once you start eating your cake again, you will savor it that much more!! :) My favorite part of doing the cleanse is trying and experimenting with new foods or ingredients. Agave is great! It also makes you READ LABELS which is so important for many reasons! Everyone should know exactly what you are putting in your body.

Keep up the Great Work!!

I LOVE YOU AND YOUR SHOW!!!!

Hi Ellen, I think what you are doing is awesome! I have been doing a no-sweets challenge for the past year or so, and I have felt fantastic. I never went through any withdrawal periods. Interestingly, the first time I did a no-sweets challenge it was for two months, and when I finally ate a piece of cheeescake, I was so unsatisfied, as it felt like I was eating pure sugar. The emotional reward aspect of it had left. Keep it up!!
