Hi all. I don't do the oil pulling anymore, though it never bothered me reference retching. Its was the time involved, plus its cheaper to use sunflower oil. As for the hair conditioning, I have hair down past my waist and i doubt if I use a tablespoon on it all. So if you have short hair I would suggest using some on your hands and other body parts as a moisturiser and then just running any excess from your hands through your hair before bed (put a towel on your pillow or make sure its a bed washing day the next day) and wash as normal the next day. I don't do it every time just when my hair is getting rat-tailed or dry. I find the finished result is lighter than some straightening shampoo's and conditioners I have used in the past.

Well I managed one proper fast this week and still can't get get back that feeling that I 'can' do it. Whether I'm being lazy or whether its my body/mind telling me I still need to take it easy i have no idea. So for now, I will fast when I feel able, for now I'm trying to kick the naughty stuff. Wine gums first.

Ivegot shoulder length hair and used about half teaspoon @julieathome
Will take yr advice,think thats a good idea
I know what you mean re trying to get ar** back into gear..
I am ok with fast days but feed days ...they just aren't going well at all
I keep trying to get it back in control then i think " control? Feels like ive been trying to take control for the last 30 years without lasting success" ...grrrrrr...
Hope youre feeling more and more well as the days go by J X

Here is the amazing news that appeared (posted publicly) on my google + page tonight:

Eating whole fruit and veggies is very important, but your body will only be able to get 30% of the nutrients because it's harder when the body has to break down the food and process it. However, by juicing, your body can get about 70% since the food is liquid and the body has less work to do.

Anyone want to comment on this piece of BS? @Carorees?

There is also a nice image of fruits with the caption "More reasons to eat fruit" and some interesting "reasons". Let me see if I can post a screen capture...

I am going to drink more red wine after reading that thank you wendyjane!!

At least they mention strawberries ... Just had these last night with cream, and then white wine!

Oh what a beautiful morning, hope for a beautiful day. I've got a wonderful feeling
food won't be going away
Not quite the song but you get the gist :0)

I think the advice is that fruit is only good for you if dipped under a fountain of chocolate

@wendyjane and @Debs I'm drinking my juiced red grapes right now. Best way to have your fruit.

Ditto!
