low calorie beverages are harmful to us if they are diet drinks, especially carbonated ones!

Try spiced tea, flavored teas, iced peppermint tea, etc...

and most of our food is water. As Dr. Mehmet Oz said on Oprah, water is a good tool for feeling full and staying regular, but it is not a must that we have 8 glasses a day. Even cheddar cheese is 40% water.

I personall drink water before noon though until my urine is no longer yellow.

It keeps me energized.

My coffee to wake up and then water all day long. I've never looked good in yellow. You have got it right!

As you all KNOW, I am NOT a fan of fundamentalists of any kind. But, check out the hallelujah Diet. This guy may have something really great going.

Whitemanitou, I support all diet plans. What works for one does not work for another. I am not biased, but I try to persuade people to not err on the side of grace.

I am going into my 8th year of diet support for Christians. Not a one has ever asked me about the hallelujah diet or my opinion of it. We do talk about scams though. It is because if it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck......

Dieting is a multi-billion dollar industry. So are a great deal of "ministries".

I have no opinion of this diet but if you would like to discuss the restrictiveness of this, rather than a healthy lifestyle change, I would love to exchange thoughts. And I mean that ever so sincerely because as far as I'm concerned, you da' main man. You have been so very kind to me.

I am glad for your interest!
