THE GUT FEELING WHEN FAT IS BEING BURNED

Once you get on the tonic for a few days and you are able to control the amount of food you are taking in there is a feeling that you are striving to have. This feeling is in the center of your stomach and it similar to feeling hungry but it is deeper than that. When you get this feeling you are starting to burn the calories from your fat. This is a feeling that you want are should look for. When you get it start to feel comportable with it as then you know you are achieving your goal-getting rid of excess fat.

Remember you can over ride the tonic and eat anyway and if that is what you're doing then you need to look at your life and try to fix your stress or frustration before you diet as the problem cannot be fixed with tonic alone.

Alkaline and Acid Food Chart

I have a good Alkaline/Acid food chart but I don't know how to get it on the Blog. So, send me your email and I'll email it to you. Email me at CarverDavidL@aol.com and say in the subject "Sent me the Good Stuff."

More on Alkaline and Acid

Alkaliners don't throw your treadmill out the window as you just need to do a couple of things. I stated that it is very important to make the tonic and drink it first thing in the AM prior to your appetite getting in gear. Alkaline does not offset Acid what happens is Acid wants more acid alkaline doesn't desire more alkaline. The proof is when you eat a salad does your stomach ever say, "I want another salad." But, when you eat a great sweet roll your stomach stays, "I love that and I want more." Drink the tonic and go straight to the treadmill and do you walking/jogging and take your vitamins as usual. When you get a little hungry around 11:00 make another drink and the same around 3-4. Then eat lunch and breakfast and try to skip the heavy meal of dinner. Also, honey, sugar, bread, all are acid and they make you want more.

Also, I have a whole thought about the life we live-whether it's acid or alkaline. Acid being stressful alkaline being peaceful.

Also, there are only three ways to get rid of acid. 1. sweat it out, 2. Eliminate it out, 3. Breathe it out. There is no other way. That's way jogging in zone is so good. It does deep breathing and sweating at the same time. So don't put acid things in and you won't have to get rid of it later.

Letting People in the Canyon know that there are Police Watching

I like to let people know when there are police up ahead in the canyon so they will slow down and not get a ticket. I usually put on my flashers and use my hands to say, "slow down." When I do that and when men pass they immediately put on their brakes and watch for signs of a problem. But, when I pass a women and do the same thing she keeps talking on her cell phone and looks down at her feet, like that hand motion means, there's something under your seat, watch out.

I have seen this same type of driving in the grocery store when I say, "Look out, Lady! I'm in a hurry. Can you quit looking at every can of beans and let me through?" I usually get the look that says, "Screw you buddy, I was in this aisle first and nobody is going to get past until I damn good and ready."

The dog is in her cage howling and I'm laughing so hard I forgot what I was talking about. See ya.

Tonic Elixir Experiences

Please let us know about any experiences you have using Dave's Tonic Elixir. We'd love to hear from you. Post them here. Have fun being Alkaline. Remember: If you ingest too much acid the only place the body can get rid of it is into fat. There is no other place it can send it.

"Alkaline is Fine"

TONIC ELIXIR RECIPE POSTED AGAIN-Many have asked about it so here it is again

Here is the formula for Dave's Tonic Elixir
1 large glass of distilled water
Juice from 1/2 a lemon
1 tablespoon of Bragg's Apple Cider Vinegar
1/3 Teaspoon of Concentrace minerals from Great Salt Lake
Stevia to sweeten to taste
Stir thoroughly
Rinse your mouth out with plain water after you drink it as it can harm your teeth-not any worse than sugar however.

Drink first thing in the morning prior to having anything to eat at all and prior to exercising.

Drink another glass about 11:00

Drink another one about 3:00

This will take your appetite away. It is a cleanser so be careful. You may need to ease into the amount you take.This is a very acid drink but it leaves an alkaline ash.You'll feel like a million bucks.
Blood sugar will be leveled-no spikes.
Stomach will feel really good.
Skin will become shiny-really improves your skin.
Medicines will act much more effectively.
Cholesterol will be lowered.
Blood pressure will be lowered.
You won't want to drink a coke, eat a lot of sugary things or eat breads.
Be sure to exercise and take fish oil as a supplement.

You can use this for "a while" then back off to 2 a day then one and you're on your way.

Read up on an alkaline diet vs. an acid one.

You can over-ride the effects of this drink by eating or drinking unhealthy stuff. If this happens then you may need to ask yourself, "Do I really want to lose weight right now or not?" If you are stressed or strung-out and you want to feeling of peace that a full stomach brings then you may want to deal with that problem prior to placing all your trust in the Tonic. It is a miracle drink but not "that" much of a miracle drink!

New Invention-Book of Elementary Class Pictures That Feed Into High School

This is a great idea. This is one example but would apply to all years. We gather all the pictures we can of all the elementary schools that feed into the Ogden High School Class of 68 and print up a real nice picture book with as many names as we can find. We use this book for two things:

1. The help develope various class reunions and

2. To act as a picture archive of people that graduated for a particular school

Now this idea is great but the real "kicker" is this; we tie the book to a website so the book can be updated as to people and what they are doing, i.e. marriages, deaths, location, children, etc. The cost of the book would include access to these pictures online for research and adding comments or corrections.

The proceeds of the sale of the book would allow for funds to be contributed to the Restoration
Foundation for, in this example, Ogden High School.

There are many other applications and additional pictures but the concept would be to act as an "online archive" for the history people that we care about.

Once we have all the people names one could call a search of our site and there would be a powerpoint presentation made starting from earliest years to later years of a person. How cool would that be?

More to follow.

Food Shopping-One Man's experience

I needed to go to the store for some food and I told Linda I thought that I could do it myself. Pretty brave isn't it. Well, I should be able to do that alone. So I needed to pick up one of these little non-electric rug sweepers so I thought I'll go to Wal-Mart and get the vac and food at the same time-sort of multi-tasking. Multi-tasking for a man is really like a Reader's Digest in one hand heading for the bathroom. Anyway, I said, hello to everyone I met because they could be my buddy someday. Linda hates it when I call everybody, "buddy." So I get a cart and the worker guy is looking at me so I say, "Can I use this one?" pointing to the first in a row of 200. He looks at me like, "What a dumb as........" I guess that's a. Yes and headed off into the store. My eyes grew wide and my lips started to get dry as well as my throat. I have never seen so much stuff to buy. I'm sure glad I didn't make a list. If I had a list it would take all day trying to find everything. This way I could just walk up and down the ailes (sp) and buy whatever looked good. I started at the Pharma-that's what Grandma calls it, and saw that the line was so long trying to buy Claritin-D that I'll just use some of Grandma's instead. So I stumble onto the vaccum cleaners and can't find any that are non-electric. So I'm looking at a steam cleaner that costs $465 and I'm thinking, "I'll hire a little Jap guy." Just as I am about to move on I see what I need on the top shelf that says, "Ask for assistance." I say, "screw that, I'll just climb up here using the ladder in the hardware section. No problem but the old guy in paint was having a heart attack because I didn't as for "assistance." I just said I was checking out the ladder and It didn't seem to be what I was looking for as the steps were too far apart. I realized the error of my ways when I noticed I was climbing up the wrong side. In anycase I got the sweeper and was off the get some groceries.

Women, drive their shopping carts just like they drive their cars. Without any warning whatsoever they stop or worse they turn without signaling and then stop right the hell in front of you. I think shopping carts should have horns on them. One lady kept doing that and I kept going from side to side and I thought if this cart had real horns I'd goose her a couple of times with them to get her going.

ONe thing I noticed is whenever I found something to put in my cart I would pick it up and then look around to see if anyone was watching or if anyone would come up and say, "Why are you buying that?" I would quickly place it in the cart and move on in case someone did come up and grab it from me. This happened especially in the meat and cheese department. All I kept saying to people as they passed, "buddy, would this make a good sandwich?' They would look at me and just stare and move on.

When I was getting the Macaroni and Cheese-the item you must buy when you go to the store no matter what and no matter if you have a thousand cases in the basement. This guy is getting mad at his wife-it must be his wife because if it was his girlfriend she would have just decked him and walked out. He was winning about how many boxes of Mand C they need. I thought, hell buddy you'll need a lot to fill up that big mouth of yours.

I said, "excuse me" in a real high voice as I was a little scared of this guy that maybe he might start looking at what I bought and want to stomp my face or something. I thought if he asks me a question I'm going to say what Tiff said in one of her comments, "my nose is starting to run and I need to sit down."

After I got all my stuff I went to check out and no matter which line I chose the people would have a problem with the check or something. I thing that is a ploy to make us use plastic credit cards.

While checking out the lady said, "first time?" I said, "excuse me?" She said, "from what you bought here it looks like this is the first time you have ever been to a store. " I said, "No, I work for the FBi and I'm tracking someone. I'll have to bring it all back in the morning as it will be the wrong stuff. I was setting it up for when Linda sees what I bought.

I had a funny feeling about going. I should have laid down on the couch until the feeling passed.

New Invention-Beard Hair protectors

Do you realize how much beard hair winds up on the floor? Well, if someone didn't cut their beard for a year that's how much there would be. This stuff is ground into the carpet or tile so Davie Boy has invented something to solve the problem. I get the old desk calenders that have a bunch of pages left-the kind that lay on the dest and you write on them, and then put them under me while I shave. Cool idea and very useful. I don't bother trying to get more than one shave out of them because they wouldn't be disposable then would they? Davieboy is inventin' like crazy.

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT (at the end of my Blog near the counter)

Be sure to review the points prior to going out for the evening to make his night pleasant and enjoyable and not to offend his friends. Also, tell all women that you know to watch the announcement so they can learn these important habits to acquire prior to conversations when men are present

Help From Those That Have Passed On

I think that our lives are protected somewhat by those that have passed on that have an interest in our lives, i.e. relatives and grandparents. I was driving up the canyon a couple of weeks ago just after a snow storm and the roads were really slick. A school bus with kids drove past me and put on it's warning lights as it was going to slow down and stop to let off some passengers. The bus put on it's lights as it was rounding a turn and following a short distance behind was a large truck and about 15 cars behind him. I had the impression to put on my blinkers and make hand gestures to slow the line down as they would never be able to stop under the conditions because they could not see the bus's blinking lights as it was hidden by the curve.

Nothing happened all was find and everyone went on their way. But, as I continued up the road I had the impression, "You have no idea how much help you (we) receive from the other side." I'm not saying anything like I had averted an accident-nothing like that. What I am saying is that some small thing can change the course of many lives and we won't know until the final "wind up scene" is through.

The lesson for me is to ALWAYS act on an impression-to call someone, to say something, to do something. I hope I never hesitate as the consequences could be enormous both for good or bad.

Outiside the Box

So I have this goofy pair of house slippers that keep falling off my feet when I go up or down stairs. The solution? I wear them on the wrong feet and Wa-la (How do you spell that?) they stay on. Another solution would be to buy new slippers.

Death is Not The Enemy

There are a lot of people with serious problems that we all pray for everyday. I had this thought;
"Death is not the Enemy, losing Faith is."

Preparing for Ice on the roofs

Ice dams are a real problem in that they cause water to backup and flow under shingles and then inside that house damaging the walls and paint. This is a real mess. But don't fret as DavieBoy has invented the answer to this dilema. You take a $20 "hammer chisel" that you buy from Home Depot and attach it to an airhose and compressor. This little tool is easy to use and fun. When applied to ice it just pulverizes it. My little grandkids were using one last year to break up the ice on my driveway. When used on a roof it destroys the ice and does nothing to the underlying shingles. This is fun and easy to use. Just don't fall off the ladder and break a leg. Call me for more testimonials and information.

Expanding The Blog

I am going to expand my blog to include everything I think about everyday. Now many of you may think, "whoa, that's not possible!" But, I assure you that I am not thinking all that much. For example, What does a guy have to do around here to get some peanut butter!

How do normal people eat wheat bread? It is so dry with a capital "D". Do you have to dip it in warm water first to eat it? It's just a thought.

Why does a McDonald's chocolate shake and then a coke have such a negative reaction? Kinda like Mentos and Diet Coke only in your stomach.

I have exhausted all my thoughts on taco eating and messyness and I think the way to eat a taco without getting it all over you like Grandma did. Just cover it completely with the wax paper that they come in and roll it up like a cigar which will pretty much smash the crap out of it then tear the end of the paper off and push it up like one of those kids pushup popsicles. Just be sure to fold the other end so nothing goes out the wrong way.

To get a dog to stop jumping up on you all you have to do is lift your knees like you are marching and the dog will worry about hitting them and stay back. It only takes once. Also another way is to, jab just behind his front leg into his rib everytime he does it and after a while it will get a little sore and he will get the message. The dog is doing what it naturally thinks is a greeting so you have to pay more attention via petting so he will learn there is another way to say, "Hello."

To stop kids from climbing on the roofs of your sheds to slide off in the snow you say, "Wait until you have to buy one of your own." Then walk away as you can't stop those little monkeys from doing it and who cares anyway?

To soften leather gloves that have been wet, all you have to do is spray WD40 on them. Works instantly.

To make pens write after sitting for a long time is to use a lighter to heat the end for just a second and they will write perfectly.

Things you can't have enough of: Garbage cans-people will throw stuff away if it is convenient. Rugs to catch dirt and snow. Get the good ones and clean them at the carwash. It is unbelieveable how much dirt they can hold. Good dish towels and good bath towels and good wash clothes.

Brushing a horse will gentle it down as fast as anything. Get a good dense high quality brush not one of those cheap ones.

If you're looking for a bit to use, put it in your own mouth and feel the difference between real silver, copper and cheap silver. I'm not kidding here.

I think a good topic for a book about the scriptures would be to talk about the people that don't have names. Like the boy who had the fishes when Christ fed the 5,000. etc.

There is an incredible story to be told about the 22nd horse and the monument that stands in Sharon, VT., the birthplace of Joseph Smith. Briefly here and in full later. They were trying to haul this massive granite monolith to the designated spot and they got almost to the top but the mud and wet stopped them. They were using 21 horses to do it. They prayed and in the night the weather turned cold and froze the ground and they added a 22nd horse and they pulled the load up to it's final distination. Never think you're not needed as you might be that 22nd horse.

It's important to learn to enjoy working. Not only at your job but around your house. To always be busy making things better is truely and gift from God. Children need to know that work is essential to our salvation. It was given to Adam in the Garden of Eden when He said, "By the sweat of your brow......"

Teach kids to think before they start and teach them not to thing to long however. Just get it done. If it's wrong you'll know soon enough. If it has to be done over it's not that big of a deal.

Don't be afraid to cut down a tree that you planted if it is not growing like it should

You should trim for beauty and Prune for growth.

Choose your battles wisely. They use up valuable and non-renewable resources. Know when to walk away and when to keep your mouth shut. Ask yourself, "Am I saying this just so I can prove to them I am better or right?" If that's all then don't say it.
