VitaMix or HealthMaster?



I've been eating vegan for two weeks now...and I'm down 7.6 pounds! Half way through the 28 day challenge! So far I feel really good (except for the other day when I ate way too many peanuts and got a stomach ache)...oops!

I'm considering buying a VitaMix or HealthMaster, and was wondering if anyone out there is using them. Do you like them? There is such a huge price difference...is the VitaMix worth it?

I'd love to know your thoughts! I'm also looking for great vegan products and recipes to help keep me motivated...

Trying Vegan...


So after all those years of eating a low carb, high protein diet, I've decided to give a vegan diet a try. Atkins isn't working for me anymore. I don't know if it's related to menopause, or if my body is just rebelling after all that meat!

I'm basing my diet on the book Eat to Live by Dr Joel Furhman , and Dr. Oz's 28 day challenge.

I started on 11.19.09. I've lost 7 pounds so far! I feel good, and I even made it through Thanksgiving dinner! Woo Hoo!
