AtandaAtiAdisa: @Dreamsinbc dearie Will start my shopping's immediately. Hope my shake off and acv will not disturb anything ooo.

Not at all. Acv is one of the items on the list. It's to be taken daily. Your shake coupled with everything here will make you lose more weight. If you have the weight to lose, use it alongside. If you don't, finish your course of shake off first.

@all, welcome!!!

Kudos Dreams sweerie, i'm in, trying to get my items
Re: Recipes For The Fruitful Home by Dreamsinbc(f): 1:39pm On Oct 18, 2013
Bcolah, for all except uziza leaves and pumpkin, check Goodies, Oasis or Shoprite. In fact, you can get pumpkin in shoprite. For the uziza leaves, just ask those ibo women who sell soup items in the market. Lemons too, ask the people who sell oranges. Peaches-shoprite

Re: Recipes For The Fruitful Home by Dreamsinbc(f): 2:12pm On Oct 18, 2013
@coco diva, thank you...please feel free to make contributions here o! This is a German-German approach. grin

@all, these are the ground rules... shocked

1. RELAX! If your mind is stressed, your body is stressed.
2. Before you start, fast, or do 1 hour midnight prayer, commending the 30 days to God, asking Him to take charge.
3. Aim for 8 glasses of water a day (if you can drink more, good, but remember that there is such a thing as water intoxication and it's not only counter-intuitive for our purposes, it might also be fatal).
4. FIRST thing in the morning, mix 2 cups of hot water with juice of 1/2 a lemon. Drink. This is only for women. Count this towards your 8 cups of water. Stop at O
5. One cup of bone broth is a MUST everyday for the duration of 30 days. Drink it at whatever time you like. You can drink it like that, or make an egg drop soup or cabbage soup (recipes up soon).
6. After the lemon mixture, but before breakfast, mix 1 tablespoon of ACV, 1 teaspoon of honey, 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon. Add 2 cups of warm water to the mixture. Stir and drink (better to use a straw as acv weakens tooth enamel) do not count this towards your daily water intake.
7. One grapefruit is a mandatory snack everyday, from start to finish of the 30 days (if you don't want to lose weight, increase your food intake by 1/2)
8. Use the pineapple CORE from 1-5 DPO. Let DH eat the flesh (recipes for pineapple core and flesh coming up)
9. Yam contains strong phytoestrogens which mimic the estrogen already in the body, giving a clomid-like effect. For this reason, stop consuming yam after O. DH can continue for the duration (aren't they lucky?)
10. Make sure you consume one serving of oats (in form of oatmeal or fufu) everyday.
11. For those of us using parsley, it is a womb stimulant, stop using after O
12. When in doubt as to when to stop consuming parsley, yam and lemons, stop at day 10 of your cycle
13. Eat at least ONE serving of greens or salad, aim for 2 (recipes coming soon)
14. Starting the day before O, soak your feet in warm water before bed, keep you feet warm (men, sleep with cold feet, you've been enjoying too much!)
15. After dinner, blend 2 tomatoes and give DH to drink.
16. Not more than 2 bananas a week-men and women,

some little notes: please take at least 3 days out of the month to give thanks to God. They don't have to be consecutive days. No requests, just be in the attitude of gratitude. Thank God for your children (call them by name). Thank Him for everything.
In the period, GO OUT OF YOUR WAY to do something good for a stranger who cannot show gratitude to you. Let it be something that will inconvenience you a little. Sometimes, it's these little things that hinder our blessings.

This is quite a list, but it's all worth it. Remember, the replenishment time for our reproductive system (male and female) is an average of 3 months. What you eat today will affect you in the next 90 days; at the end of this challenge, incorporate some of these things into your everyday life.
May God hear and answer our prayers and crown our efforts with success. AMEN!

Re: Recipes For The Fruitful Home by Dreamsinbc(f): 8:15pm On Oct 18, 2013
All in the fridge. For the cauliflower, seperate the florets and wrap in newspaper. Cauliflower at 500 for 3? Forget jos o, Lagos is the place to be. Here, one medium cauliflower is 500, that's why I didn't include it, make we save small money.

Omo, that garden, work dey am ooo. Enjoy...yes fresh is always better than canned. The less processed food we consume, the better. I'm very surprised you found all these o.

uteh: Na wa. I used to think pumpkin is d ugwu seed o. And what is d local name for parsley? This brown rice, i have never seen it before, dont think its available in the local market.

No, it's not in the market. You can find it in big shops. If you can't find it, no worries, just reduce the amount of white rice by 1/2 and eat two servings of greens or salad
Lol, pumpkin is a fruit/vegetable on its own. Ugu leaves are the leaves.

Welcome. It starts on the 1st of November. Pick up from where you are in your cycle, and continue for 30 days. Have you checked out the TTC thread? It would be a good idea to read through. There are lots of good advice there as well.

You need to listen to your body. Our bodies respond to things differently,what works for A in a way ,may not work for B in the same way.You shouldn't have this much bowel movement in a single morning. It'l not only leave you dehydrated,but will drain you of minerals and soluble vitamins as well. Stop it for a day or two. Then halve the dose thereafter and see how it goes. Drink lots of water now for replenishment.
Re: Recipes For The Fruitful Home by Dreamsinbc(f): 1:44pm On Oct 19, 2013
Welcome jommy, may God's will be done in these 30 days. Amen
@MamaT, no let your anger become annoyed. The broth is just the liquid after boiling the biscuit bones or cow tail with vinegar and some vegetables. I will post the recipe on Monday. You just boil, sieve and freeze in little containers for daily use. No vex biko.
@onyinyechika, I think she mentioned mile 12, but maybe a PT is in order o.
