Anyway, I spent the morning reading thru this entire Health & Healing forum for info on the Rainbow Diet. I've seen a few comment that there's alot thru the older posts, but I have not found what I'm looking for.

What I'd like to know is how many people this has worked for vs. how many it hasn't, and for those it has worked for, to what extent?

Also, I have been wondering how literally to take her instructions as far as the placement of the lamps. She says 2 feet from the skin, but I bought a clip-on lamp. Plus, she says to put between your legs but that would not bring the bulb to 2 feet above the skin.

ALso! I bought TWO lamps & am wondering if this would be MORE effective if I put one at feet & one at solar plexus simultaneously for half hour... any thots on this?

Thank you & I look forward to sharing & exchanging & getting to know ya'll!!!

When I held the lamp between my legs I had the bulb within inches of my skin, as the lamp had a neck that bends.

If you feel you might benefit more with two lamps, go for it!

Keep us posted on your progress.

I had this confirmed when I hopped onto my treadmill for over an hour & began sobbing... & this lasted for days. If I had not equated the weight with stored, negative emotions I would have thot I was sinking into a depression, so I was able to let it move thru & thus FROM me without claiming it & making it who I am. Make sense?

So, after that I tried a visualisation that I'd like to share with all of you. I did this one night & saw results the next day.. but don't remember to do it daily. Here's what I did:

Lying in bed at night, I visualised my emotional body, which resembled my physical body. I'd scoop a bit of "fat" with my hands & hold it up to Spirit & said, "Please take this & transform it into love" then I kissed it & watched it sparkle upward and become a new expression, like sparkling stars or butterflies, etc. I repeated this scooping & releasing thru all parts of my body that I feel have excess, & you can do large scoops too so one time = one area.

I too believe in this color diet, so if the results are this inconsistant then I agree, there must be something missing from the equation. I am a firm believer about how our thoughts & intentions & expectations create our realities, so maybe that's part of it? For those of you who had no or reverse results, may I ask if you had any doubts about the validity of the color diet?

I love this forum! I'm gonna be sharing some beauty secrets in that wonderful thread too!

The color diet is a bit confusing... I never really got certain aspect of it- like, how come potatoes are allowed but not french fries? And where does that leave potato chips?

Hmm... Maybe french fries & chips aren't allowed because of the oil they're fried in?

i am also going to the gym and lifting weights 3 times a week and riding a stationary bike about 3x a week (but im about to kick it up to 5x).

i did this diet in december as well, but i couldn't keep consistent with my times of day so it failed.. though i still lost weight. this time ive been perfect at 6:30 am everyday, and with the solarized water 2x a day.

i think a hard part of this diet is mental. one must believe that it has already worked before they can see it work.... like, if you're waiting for results to believe it and WONT prior to that point, it may not at all.

but 15 days in i still get my stomach grumbling after i drink the solarized water, and my tummy dances to the red light everytime.

This can be said of any diet/eating program. I thought the whole point was that the colors were meant to balance you, whether you believed it or not.

Belief is a funny thing. If you feed your dog immense amounts of McDonald's food every day, s/he may grow fat. And if s/he does, is it born from belief that McDonald's food makes you fat? And if it doesn't make him/her fat, is it born from a belief that no food makes you fat unless you believe it will?

If no food will make you fat or thin unless you believe it will or won't...then it doesn't matter what you eat or how much color you bring into your body. All that matters is the belief.

I myself have not started yet - you see, we have this Starbucks here that has a punch card - every 10th punch is a free drink, & my favorite drink costs almost $6 so that's nothing to sneeze at! Plus they're ending it this week so I gotta finish my card & get my last Venti Quad Peppermint Breve Latte!!! (does this sound like an excuse? it's really not! honest!) heehee

BTW, regarding beliefs. I have read (and agree) that it might be to our benefit to stop saying "lose weight." Why call ourselves losers, and risk a misunderstanding from our literal Universe? And often, what is lost, is found again.

Just say you're saying goodbye to some weight you no longer need, and as Brennie suggested, send it off into the Universe to become something beautiful.
