If you are trying to lose weight and still wondering what you can do better, your are at the right place. Pierrette & I had a great Waldorf Salad for supper last night and wondered why more people need to learn how to Eat for Energy. Sorry Yuri but I need to tell people just how good this meal is.

Eating for Energy is only for people that want to permanently change their lifestyle. Having sumptuous meals that taste great will not suit everyone. Most people assume that to be in great health you need to eat foods that taste bland and suffer through the pain of losing weight. Yes, most assume this and yet look at the success rates, terrible.

Pierrette & I approached this losing weight from a different angle. We asked ourselves:

• Why do we need to suffer?
• We want all foods to taste great?
• We want to make a permanent lifestyle change, permanently?
• We want to understand what we eat and why we put the stuff in our mouth that is killing us slowly everyday?

Many months ago we were introduced to Yuri Elkaim and started reading his material. Like most information we have been researching, we were skeptical and it has taken us many months of study and trial and error to fully understand how simple this all is.

We often feel like newborns tasting our first spoonfuls of incredible foods.

Last night we had this incredibly tasting meal we need to share with you.

It is on page 247 in Eating for Energy (sorry Yuri we cannot hide this). This Waldorf Salad just blew our minds away. At first the ingredients seemed so easy that I told Pierrette,”Is that all there is, there will not be enough for both of us?”

Little did I know that the first forkful would be so great. The combinations of the ingredients surprised us both and the taste was overwhelming to say the least.

One of the reasons we are all overweight or obese is the love relationship we have built with our food, right? Well start Eating for Energy and you will find a new love. A Healthy Love For Healthy Foods. Once you do, you will never want to go back. Here is the recipe:

2 apples,chopped(fuji) We only had McIntosh, but understand why Fuji and so will you.

2 tomatoes,chopped

2 avocados,chopped

1 orange or yellow sweet pepper,chopped(not oranges the fruit,orange the color).

1/2 sweet onion or shallot,chopped(we had red onion)

handful sprouts (alfalfa,radish.etc.) (we had lentil sprouts that Pierrette helped sprout)

2 tbsp olive oil

pinch of sea salt

dash of cayenne pepper and onion powder

Combine all the ingredients in a salad bowl. It only takes 10 minutes at best to prepare.

There are no cooked foods here, only raw uncooked great tasting food.

There you have it, all you need to do is enjoy and savor every mouthful. If I had to eat only great food like this (and I will) for the rest of my life, and be healthy, why wouldn’t you?

Now please, try this recipe before buying and deciding to follow Pierrette & I & yes Yuri on our journey to permanent great health. If you are not satisfied we will have tried to make you understand.

Food for thought.
