I think I may be "The Biggest Loser" because I am now hooked on this manipulative show! Since I found out that Bob Harper went Vegan, for the animals & his health (he was even the Spokesperson for a Farm Sanctuary Walk!) I have been a "Biggest Loser" convert. Bob's genetically high cholesterol dropped over 100 points after going vegan. Although, I was pretty surprised that they rarely even mention dietary choices, and when they do it's very '50s style "product placement" sort of manner. Lately though, at least they have had some ads for "Lara Bars" and other stuff that isn't just trash decorated as breakfast food. But then moments like when Bob Harper had the UnderDog team to his house for a Vegan Dinner make all the painful advertising and the insane commercial breaks prior to nail biting weigh-ins, well, worth it. Here are some of Bob Harper's Vegan Recipes that were featured when he had the team over for dinner.
Here's Bob Harper on the Cover of VegNews! An all vegan 'zine.
And here is Bob Harper's interview aboutFarm Sanctuary& being Vegan.
We usually binge on Vegan Tacos and Cashew Cheeze, Vegan Indian Chili, Raw Vegan Olive Crostini, or some other high fat, comfort food while watching our "DVR"ed Biggest Loser show. Yep, we binge while we watch once morbidly obese people get thin. Sick Habit. Must Stop!
Fat. Fat. And Lemon!
Other highlights include Bob wearing his "Eat no Cow" shirt (PETA) in the gym and Jillian last night sported a super sexy "My dog is a Rescue" shirt, I believe from PETA also. Plus Jillian is now advertising Coconut Milk! That is a zillion steps up from A Milk Moustache. If you are donning a Milk Moustache and you have allergies, well read up a little about Milk!. From Wikipedia, a map showing the percentage of Lactose Intolerance in populations.
I started with one avocado but it wasn't really enough to get the food processor going. So....2 avocados. Stevia Packets to taste. Coconut Nectar. Freshly Squeezed Lemon to taste (I used 2 or 3). And the total amount of liquid (including lemon juice) should be about one cup. So I used a tiny bit of lemon juice and then purified water for the rest. You just process it until it is creamy!! So simple! The only difficult part is keep ripe avocados on hand!
My husband said these were too dirty too print.
Have you seen those banned PETA commercials? I included one at the end of the post!
After processing. You will have to scrape the sides a bit.
So it's not yellow. I would be more likely to serve the chocolate or carob version to company that isn't "Raw-like". But I felt like a change!
And it was super yummy!
Eat No Cow Shirt that Bob Harperwore at the gym in a 2010 episode of "The Biggest Loser".
Available from Peta. As you can see, Paul McCartney is a fan of it as well!
And I think it was this shirt or check out the Peta "My Dog is a Rescue" V necks, that Jillian was wearing on the show that aired last Tuesday, May 2011. Her last season! I always have to "Pause" the tv to see their shirts! Another Peta Rescue shirt.Sure Jillian is tough on people trying to save their lives. She is trying to prevent death! So she shakes stuff up a bit. But she has a huge heart and not only rescues dogs, but kids as well! We will miss you Jillian!
Jillian Michaels on the Dog Whisperer.
And I thought I would order the Guayaki Air Dried Mate in Bulk. Since my other brands might have some odd links to odd stuff.......
Wouldn't this qualify for "Green Sex Toys"?? They are even "Solar-Powered". No BPA's here!!
Are there any other Biggest Loser Fans out there?? Do you sit and eat while you watch other people work out also? Or are you too busy working out to be lazy enough to watch the tely?
What? You love dogs and you are pissed and livid and all over your social media telling Jay Nixon to f** o** and that you aren't going to vote for him again?? Well, first, it started with the Republican Vote base. But you are RIGHT. Mr. Jay Nixon should have upheld what Missouri Voters wanted and pulled his cojones out of his a** to do it. So you are helpless and you can't stand the fact that these poor dogs are suffering so miserably why these blow hards protect their "Agricultural Interests"??
What can you do in this moment to change that?
Go Vegan.
Don't keep giving their side money! If you think the whole thing is totally bogus and you want the puppies to win, you must quit buying products from all of the companies that want Prop B killed. Animal Agriculture. And that means chicken. Yep, chicken is not vegetarian. No meat. No dairy. No Eggs. If you are still using and buying these products from people who are funding the opposition, then consider yourself against Prop. B. Consider yourself in support of factory farming puppies. 'Cause that's why everyone is so freaked out. They are really freaked out that if you give 2 shits about puppies that somehow you might not like that pigs are treated even worse! You can bitch. You can moan. But if you are still eating chicken, you just voted. And it wasn't for the puppies.
Simple Economics. Quit giving money to the people who are killing Prop. B. To the companies pouring endless funds into advertising and lobbying. Even if you think pigs, chickens, and cows are very different creatures than your beloved puppies, in my opinion, you should stop funding the source! If you are against abortion, you generally don't make daily payments to Planned Parenthood and have them earmarked for abortions. Or if you are Christian, do you make a monthly check out to A Muslim Mosque, to support their activities-or vice versa? Do I make out checks to John Ashcroft every single day? You vote with your money. You buy stuff everyday. And you probably buy food more often than anything else. In addition to saving the puppies, well you may (in my opinion) find yourself with a lower risk of cancer, diabetes, obesity, stroke, and heart disease.
Then adorn yourself and be proud (check out more vegan jewelry here). At least you don't have to spend countless hours trying to pull your cojones out of a vast, dark, impacted place (this diet will clean ya out too).
