It’s easier to shed extra pounds if you know a few tricks.

To complete this How-To you will need:

A blue light bulb
Low-cal starters
Limited food choices at meals
Smaller plates and bowls

Step 1: Get the blues

Change the light bulb in your refrigerator to a blue one. It will make everything in the fridge look unappetizing, because we unconsciously associate blue with moldy food.

Tip: Yellow, red, and orange stimulate the appetite.

Step 2: Spoil your dinner

Eat an apple, a small, low-cal salad, or a cup of soup before lunch and dinner, especially if you’re having a fattening entree. Studies show you’ll consume fewer total calories because you’ll be less hungry for the main meal.

Step 3: Limit your choices

Limit the number of different tastes at each meal. Research has shown that if we are experiencing just one taste, like a casserole, we’ll stop eating when they’re full. But if we allow our taste buds to jump around from sweet, to salty, to savory, and back again, we tend to eat past the point of fullness.

Tip: Variety is a main reason we eat an extra 1,500 to 5,000 calories at Thanksgiving dinner alone.

Step 4: Cut down on sugar

Cut down on added sugar — sugar that doesn’t occur naturally in food. The average American consumes 30 teaspoons — 450 calories — of added sugar per day; think about that before you pour sugar into beverages and onto foods. And avoid foods that list sugar as one of the first three ingredients, or that contain several types of sugar.

Tip: Fructose, corn syrup, fruit-juice concentrate, malt syrup, sucrose, molasses, dextrose, and glucose are all sugars.

Step 5: Use smaller dishes

Eat off smaller plates. Studies show you’ll eat fewer calories without even missing them.

VIDEO #10 of my weekly chats
w/ my friend Dave the Raw Food Trucker! ❤

For those new to this series, check out preceding videos at http://bit.ly/Hfc1X & this quick backgrounder on Dave’s amazing story of natural healing!:
My friend Dave the Raw Food Trucker tells his story of how he came from the brink of death to heal himself of several diseases including colon cancer, type II diabetes & kidney disease, all via the consumption of raw foods. Not to mention his amazing weight loss of 178 pounds over the last 16 months, and he’s not stopping there. He’s going to go ALL the way with his health, and wants YOU too as well. This guy is a TRUE SUPERHERO!!

*****VIDEO #10 UPDATE*****
This week, Dave’s with me here at the RV making what may be the most powerful & amazing juice recipe that mankind has ever known!

❤ DAVE THE RAW FOOD TRUCKER’S 3-GALLON
SUPER SPECIAL LIFE-SAVING POWER JUICE !!! ❤

These ingredients are what Dave uses to make 3 gallons worth of juice at once, to last him 3 days on the road. This is an ULTRA LOW-glycemic juice & Dave credits it for helping to cure his body of Type II Diabetes & Stage IV Colon Cancer.

Dave is ALL about having his produce be 100% organic. As he healed himself of serious conditions & his body still isn’t done healing himself of all the excess weight, he feels this is vital. But you just do the best you can!

* I n g r e d i e n t s *

**In the preceding Video #9, Dave
went over all of the ingredients below…
Visit http://bit.ly/8iheT to see that first!**

— 5 bunches Spinach (w/ stems intact; not just the leaves)
— 2 bunches Red Chard
— 3 bunches Collard Greens
— 3 bunches Kale
— 4 bunches Cilantro
— 1 bunch Fresh Basil
— 4 bunches Beet Greens (Dave ONLY juices the greens of the beets & NOT the actual beets, as he’s still recovering from the diabetes. For those not dealing w/ diabetes, feel free to juice the beets!
— 6 Red Bell Peppers
— 4 Yellow Bell Peppers
— 2 heads Fennel
— 4 heads Celery
— 12 Cucumbers (unpeeled if organic; peeled if inorganic)
— 2 dozen on-the-vine Tomatoes
— 3 heads Broccoli
— 1 pound Baby Bok Choy (or 1 bunch Bok Choy)
— 1 bunch Mustard Greens (use a smaller amount if the flavor is too strong)
— 4 bunches Parsley (2 Regular, 2 Italian)
— 1 bunch Asparagus
— 1 large Fresh Aloe Leaf (inorganic ok; organic is rarely available…also, only juice the lower portion of it & always juice a bit & taste, juice a bit & taste, as it can be VERY potent)
— 1 bottle of E3Live Algae
— Rainbow Light Advanced Systems Digestive Enzymes (to help control gas, especially when you first jump into a program like this! If you can’t find this brand, look for a type that’s raw vegan & whole-plant sourced)

*Dan added a couple more ingredients,
picked fresh from the garden!*
— 1 bunch wild Lamb’s Quarters
— 1 bunch wild Plantain

* B e n e f i t s *

** Refer to previous video for more benefits http://bit.ly/8iheT **

— Plantain ~ Moves the lymphatic system: Pulls mucus, etc. out of the body
— Tomatoes ~ For delicious flavor!
— Aloe Leaf ~ Soothes the GI tract, especially if there are ulcers and/or inflammation!
— Broccoli ~ Some call it the “answer to cancer” but what do you think?

* I n s p i r a t i o n *

— Green Herbs Heal! + Fruit Energizes!

— CUCUMBERS, BELL PEPPERS & TOMATOES are all technically fruits!

— Nothing in this video constitutes medical advice in any way, shape or form! We’re just 2 dudes who get super healthy when they eat fruits and vegetables & want you to be healthy too!

— As you start to dive deeper into getting healthier through eating & drinking highly nutritive raw fruits and vegetables, the life force within you dances more & more freely!

— The skin on the backs of Dave’s elbow are all irritated w/ some mucus even coming out. But that’s a good thing! His body is just releasing old toxins that he wants OUT!

— Dave & I have had colonics during heavy detox periods, and we encourage you to consider doing the same…but it’s your choice!

— WARNING: This juice tastes like pizza in a glass! The herbs & tomatoes are so flavorful!

— One can choose healing via raw vegetable & fruit juices…or medical procedures such as chemotherapy, radiation & surgery. Personally, I’d choose juicing as even if it was my time to leave planet Earth, what better way to go out than to actually feeling GOOD?!

***The cost of fruits & veggies for 3 gallons of juice to be drunk over a span of 3 days?

$75 ➜ Is $25 a day really too much to save your life?

— I’ve been here visiting my Mom in Yuma, Arizona to help her recover from shoulder surgery, as well as to get her on the healthy path so she can get relief from her chronic health problems such as fibromyalgia!

— To create a supportive & healthy environment for her, we first spent some time removing all of the more unhealthy and less-healing types of foods such as surgery snacks, coffee, bread & butter, etc. I recommend that you do the same! If it is out of sight, it is less likely to come into your mind!

— I’ve been expecting miracles in the healing of my Mom, and now Alice (from a couple of videos ago) & my Mom got to meet and guess what? They totally hit it off and Alice is going to be helping my Mom stick on the healthy path full of healthy foods & juicing, as well as offering her love & support—THANK YOU, ALICE! Words cannot express the gratitude I feel…

— LOVE YOURSELF, my Mom & Alice both recommend…! It is NOT about just losing weight to lose weight, as that will never work in the long run… if you just LOVE YOURSELF, you will automatically MAKE HEALTHIER CHOICES & DO HEALTHIER THINGS! …and when you GET HEALTHY, you will LOSE WEIGHT simply as a side effect!

— I encourage everyone to just be the love! …and please know that TODAY IS THE DAY to LOVE YOURSELF NOW!

YOU CAN DO THIS!

Love, Dan
