My name is Carly (from Australia) and I am new here. I own Love Signs and Star Signs and the latter book has fascinated and captivated my imagination since I have read it. This message board is great, very extensive and I am sure I could spend way too much time here! LOL.
Anyway, has anyone successfully tried the Red Diet for weight loss? A couple of questions...
1) How come Linda says you can have lemonade (loaded with sugar) but then says sugar is a no-no?
2) Can you have wholemeal wheat products or no wheat at all?
3) No nuts allowed?

Thanks...I am trying to lose a few stubborn kilos after having two babies within two years of each other!

I look forward to learning from all you interesting people...

n to answer another one of ur question,i tried the diet for 20 days n stopped wen my bulb broke and it really was working...i think it has a LOT to do with ur mind..wen u'r doin this plumpie diet,u'r thinkin u'r losing weight,therefore u do!!! kinda like tht u know?
anyway,i've started it again n itz been jus 10 days n already ppl r tellin me tht i've lost weight so go ahead n try it itz a lotta fun!
oh yeah those two other qs..i think somewhere randall said tht if he were to make an educated guess,it wud be tht wholemeal wheat products r allowed...and no nuts..thtz stated clearly.the nuts r for the skinnies who'r greening themselves and brown n green...trees u know?makes sense to me they'll go together.

hope i've been able to help..

peace

I had my beautiful baby boy 5 months ago, so I can totally relate to those stubborn few extra kilos!!!

It does take time for your body to regain balance after having a baby. I found after my little boy's birth that my lower chakras felt out of sync and I felt extremely vunerable and weak. Now, after 5 months, I feel much stronger and more in balance.

I have lost all of my pregnancy weight due to diet, exercise and breastfeeding (I was lucky I was able to breastfeed). Your message did make me think of the colours of food that I mostly eat. Come to think of it most of the foods I eat are mostly the red ones e.g. beetroot, tomatoes etc. So, perhaps the diet does work. I also like listening to techno music, but that could be due more to my starsign of Aries. I don't know about the nuts or the lemonade though.

Good luck with everything! Hope this helps!
