  1. My truth  about diet tea in general…If you’re looking for a major body shift no tea alone will make you lose all your belly fat on their own.  Diet teas are flooding IG & other platforms and while they can help a little bit, please know nothing’s gonna give you a miraculous quick fix…On the plus side for the teas, the one I tried is all natural plant based stuff like dandelion, licorice root & senna leaf.

    Senna leaf in diet tea is the same ‘make you run to the loo’ ingredient your grandparents use in Senecot, which you can get for a fraction of the price drugstore, if laxatives are your thing, but let’s face it they probably shouldn’t be…

    My other issue is the price you can easily get comparable diet teas at overpriced Whole Foods and still save a ton of dosh over some of the current popular brands.

    The cleanse packets can help you with a bit of bloat as in it will make you go to the loo, but you don’t wanna overuse them as that makes muscles lazy, making it harder to go without the teas, most companies will tell you not to overuse products, so that’s good.

    If you want a flat  stomach.. and mine is totally not right now, you can try what I’m doing…Start a daily walk or exercise, cut out foods that inflame your system. Only you know which ones really make your particular body feel like crap, use your intuition and cut out stuff that’s dragging you down. I honestly don’t eat many prepacked processed foods at all and I find my body works more efficiently, and I don’t eat dairy, or meat.

    And after you do that sort of thing maybe also use a tea once in a while if you’re clogged up and eat some fiber in the form of vegetables too. Veg fiber feeds the good bacteria in the colon as well as gets you moving as well or better than any tea.

  1. “Day tripping In the desert Oldchella style or How did it feel to be the #LoneBlackGirl at Desert trip, the 3 day rock & roll all star concert line up? “
    In the desert you can remember your name… This is what a lot of what Joshua Tree national Park looks like, gorgeous & desolate… and teeming with life. If you want to see the giant rocks go to the Northern entrance first.
    Windy City, my hair feels like a tumble weed… a young coyote ran out in front of us with lunch in his mouth…
    Desert Trip or Oldchella… I was lucky enough to have an artist pass, seeing legendary bands close up is indescribable, the energy from the crowd, electric. Neil Young was incredible and not just because he threw bags of marijuana seeds into the pit. Alas I was too short to grab one…
    I love a mirrorless camera… I wish all cameras were mirrorless…  we’re in a digital age, this a is Fuji, I also have a non mirrorless canon that I still adore…. I lust for a Leica

  2. BET.com reposted a random Instagram post of mine…

    https://www.instagram.com/p/BGX85rkv_X-/?taken-by=trueracheltrue

    Thank you for all the amazing generous comments on IG & Twitter. Since then people have asked if there’s a secret trick to looking younger than our actual years,  but… Feeling good in your body at any age is more my aesthetic.

    I’ve said in earlier posts after dealing with fibroids and the underlying conditions, including a hormone imbalance that had plagued me pretty much my entire life, I pulled my health together, and it was a long uphill slog and a half, at my age, but so worth it.

    One of the side effects of nourishing the body on a cellular level with whole foods,  pumping  oxygen in muscles from exercise, and not smoking  is ‘younger’ looking muscles and skin. In other words, looking younger can be a  side effect of healthy living.

    People could save a ton on Botox etc if they’d lay off smoking and pills, if only for vanities sake.

    My body has less aches and pains if I eat right. My mind is less moody if I eat right…. So for me, worth it.

    Stop back for my next post, on  why i think ‘all foods in moderation’ doesn’t work for some of us emotional over eaters.

    Some nutrient void processed foods have addicting qualities.  we  gorge not because we’re gluttonous or weak but because  they’re salt sugar and fat bombs… that’s the holy trinity, a combo that’s almost impossible to resist.

    I really like the book Salt Sugar Fat: How the Food Giants Hooked Us. It breaks this topic down in a fascinating way, reads like a thriller. Super helpful to see how manipulated we are by adverts and seduced by ‘food products’ masquerading as food.

    xx  Rachel
