.................................................................

The Poetry Branch has been in limbo since the prior hostess left FreeRepublic April 15th 2003. We've since learned that said hostess has lost her posting privilege. That being the case, and Jim Robinson having given his ok, I wanted to renew the thread.

FreeRepublic is blessed with many fine poets, and we look forward to seeing their poems posted on FR once again. There were many non-poet FReepers who visited the Poetry Branch for the camaraderie; we hope they will return.

I would like to invite everyone to visit and relax at Poetry and Potpourri. Hopefully you will renew old acquaintances for chatting, sharing jokes, telling stories, posting cartoons, etc. Everyone needs a place to escape from the everyday news, make Poetry and Potpourri that place.

Sugar/starch free diet. I don't know all the details but if it's white, you can't eat it. Also, no corn or carrots. Anything that turns to sugar is out.

My friends went on it after he had open heart surgery and learned he was border-line diabetic. He can eat any amount of what he can eat. Their two young kids eat the same foods and get their kid stuff when they eat out.

His cholesterol went down. He's lost 30 lbs. in 8 months. They all feel better.

I'll let you know more when I get the book.

I would love to hear more about that too! My uncle, who I care for, also had open heart surgery and is diabetic. He is controlled with a medication he takes each day, and we watch his blood sugar. So far, so good, but more information would be helpful. Thanks! :)
