Hi Ellen!
My family went off sugar also and wanted to tell you about cocokefir which will help your sugar cravings immensely. It is a live probiotic drink made with young coconuts, and it happened to play a key role in recovering our daughter from autism too! I think that if you are trying to cut sugar from your diet, fermented foods and drinks are a must!
Hi Ellen, I think I have posted a message in every area I can think of to get your attention. I have left a detailed message about what I need on your Blog page under "7yr old boy with leukemia" and "Urgent message for Ellen". Can you please help me. I am in charge of putting together a huge fundraiser to help support 2 families that need the assistance. My nephew is 7 and has leukemia and the other boy is 9 and has a stomach cancer. I want to make this the biggest event that Redding has ever seen. I would love for you to be a part of it. Please read my blog messages and let me know. Thank you Kelly Daniels

Hey Ellen,
how is it that you look even more beautiful w/o all that stage makeup!?!? you never cease to amaze me! love from our lesbian fambly here in texas!
uh, oh! No sugar! I hope you are ready to feel...AMAZING! Not to mention lose weight, get sick less, and live longer!!I hope with your celebrity you can encourage and inspire more people in this country to do the same-eat to live, not live to eat!
Good luck, and thanks for being such a breath of fresh air-it's great to start my day laughing with you!
Hi Ellen...I'm a huge fan...unfortunately because I'm a mother of 2 boys, I'm hardly able to watch any TV.
Congratulations on beginning this amazing Diet. I wanted to share a little bit about why we experiemented with this amazing trend. My son, Zachary is 6 years old with special needs. I am continuously trying different diets and therapies. Came across this diet due to his "autistic" characteristics, and it's been the best thing ever for him. He has just come out SO MUCH! Since his little body isn't worried about the madness that used to go on inside his body, he's been able to focus on other things...like the rest of the world.
It truly is a healing diet! Not just for people trying to kick the sugar thing...but also, for children and people affected by the gastro issues!
Congrats to you again. You go girl!!!
Thanks,
Hi Ellen, Firstly I wanted to say I love your show and watch it everyday without fail.
I was diagnosed with diabetes 2 years ago and as my mother had died from complications from diabetes, it scared the hell out of me. I got home from the doctors and did a lot of research on what I should and shouldn't eat. I cut out all prosessed sugar and also limited sugar in natural foods like fruit. I found it hard for the first couple of days as I was a sugar addict but I knew I didn't have a choice. I feel better than i have in years,
Good luck on your giving it up and keep dancing!!!
Love to you and Portia and mamma
Ellen,
I'm 13 turning 14 in 8 days, and I think you're such an inpiration. I watch your show everyday and I laugh all the time. You're like wicked brave 'cus if I ever went off sugar, I'd be loopier then I would be if I was on it. I absolutly loooovveee Jersey Shore and you should have seen my parents looks when I screamed when Mike, Pauly D (
Hi Ellen,
Long ago and far away, I used to see you at your house or the Ellen set, thanks to Joely, and we used to be neighbors on W & W.
I want to share that The Body Ecology Diet is my savior in terms of experiencing a calm body and open Heart like never before.
Not eating fruit while cherimoyas were dropping, living on Maui, and no sugar, no agave, no wheat, wa interesting... but wait...For 3 solid amazing months I invited optimal wellness to take complete control of my life.
Past indulgences were cleared and detoxing inspired many naps; rest is good!, but all in all, every extra pound melted off, daily walks and some yoga brought strength, & the principles very easily made my Spirit, body and mind a resilient team with the intelligence to choose winning foods for what I now teach "inner Permaculture."
I am a certified Permaculture Designer (PCD); PCD teaches how to make your home into an ecosystem; this is my passion & business, and Body Ecology is the place to begin: Zone Zero; The Body Temple.
The Aborgines are having Donna Gates, BE author, to Australia to teach them the diet. Imagine all the indigenous people empowered, and living their peace as they know best. Imagine peace in your own body.
Oh, and I wrote a little book of recipes with BE principles, called "GOOD MOOD FOOD"; make your own reishi chocolate, chocolate mousse, chocolate torte, millet-crust pizza with carmelized onions and shiitake shrooms, caraway foccaccia bread with pumpkinseed oil; Yum! Coconut Kefir is coconut champagne & you can have it all the time, with every meal and before bed for boosting probiotics; pure Heaven. Finally, Heaven on earth!
This is the tastiest food EVER!! It's a miracle.
I am wishing you the hugest highest blessings for your success, and I thank you for all you contribute to improving life on earth. Laughing is key!! Thanks for making me smile and laugh all the time!!! I am grateful!!

Congrats! Overcoming the destructive side of our subconcious is no small feat. Whether the subject be that of sugar, overeating, smoking, destructive life situations, etc... the voice is the same. I have been following your progress and have felt so much support toward my own efforts in living without refined sugar. I am feeling great with you and hope that you continue your website videos. I have attempted, unsuccessfully, for 2 years to find a partner in this adventure! Thank you.
Ellen, I am so glad to hear you are still watching out for that sugar!
I have been following the Jorge Cruise plan (the belly fat cure) which has the goal of 15 grams or less of sugar each day. I have followed this since last spring, and I feel great.
All sugar is counted in this plan... even sugar in fruit and milk, etc.
I must admit, I was surprised when I read a reply here that someone was having a smoothie with an apple and 2 bananas (and other ingredients). One medium banana has 14 grams sugar and an apple has about 14 grams sugar. That is 42 grams sugar just from those 3 servings of fruit!
Another option for fruit lovers, are raspberries, blackberries, strawberries. 1/2 cup of raspberries is only 3 grams sugar. 1/2 cup sliced strawberries, 4 grams sugar.
Hi Ellen:
Can you please post the details (rules) of the sugar cleanse? I am intersted in attempting this.
Thank you!!
Allison
Hi Ellen, I love, love, love your show...you make me laugh everyday. I have to say I thank God in Heaven that no one sees me get up in my sweats or pjs and dance right along with you when you start "the dance"!
I was disappointed however that you gave out all that Vitamin Water to the audience. It was REALLY nice of you no doubt but ALL THOSE PLASTIC BOTTLES....As Americans we throw out billions of plastic bottles every year and they are winding up in our oceans...so so dangerous. Please at least remind those folks to promise to recycle. It's too late to take them back but PLEASE again remind them to recycle. Thanks and Love ya!!!! Janet Gillam
If you made it to day 9, then I made it to day 8...unfortunately I had already eaten sugar on the day you started...but I'm going strong! I made it 12 weeks last summer...but then fell off it during pumpkin pie season....but I feel more ready to just give it up altogether now! Although if anyone has any recipes on how to make pumpkin pie with no sugar I would be much happier come fall!
Hi Ellen, it is good to laugh and you make me laugh. I woke up one morning and the radio said Ellen Degeneres is going to give up sugar and I thought - yeah - I would like to do that too. Every day I wake up and I say I am not going to have any sugar and every day goes by and guess what???? I have eaten sugar. Well if you can do it I can do it. I will let you know when I reach Day one without sugar. By then you may be back to eating sugar.

By the way this is Day 9 of still eating sugar!!
