Chef Barrae is REALLY BACK Now!!! Please read ... I am Requesting YOUR SUPPORT!

Over a year ago I thought I was back ... and then ... I was diagnosed as legally blind in one eye and had also lost about 30% use of both of my hands. All of these physical challenges were from my type 2 diabetes. Even though my blood sugar levels were well under control and I thought that I was eating real healthy, diabetic retinopathy, diabetic neuropathy, arthritis and carpal tunnel took over my body. I was forced to step back from cooking. As a chef, I was devastated and fell into another deep depression and old habits returned once again. After working so hard and losing 210 pounds I did gain back some of the weight, about 50 pounds worth. With the help of my friends, I am now back. My vision has improved significantly and my hands work once again and I am cooking! And I am working on the weight again. The most important thing is I AM HEALTHY! I AM READY! SO, LET'S GO! Wooooo hoooooo!!!!

So, this brings me to something very important. November is National Diabetes Awareness Month. Almost 6 years ago I challenged Chef Bobby Flay to a "Reverse Throwdown" and said that I would create the dish of his choice for diabetics that was low in carbs, healthy and DELICIOUS! To date, I have had no response. I have however, seen shifts in the FOOD NETWORK programming to include several healthful food shows. Back then I was told via email by Bob Tuschman, General Manager/Senior Vice President for Food Network, that they already had a "healthy chef" (there was one woman who was a dietitian I think) and they did not do those types of programs. Well, haven't times changed! Today, I am PROUD OF THE FOOD NETWORK for the shifts in their programming to include many more programs with an eye on good health. I would make up that when one of Food Network's  biggest stars, Ms. Paula Deen, was taken ill and diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes, the programming shift began. Thank you. Thank you for showing more of what the public REALLY WANTS in this health conscious day and age. Okay, I digressed so back to my point.


November is National Diabetes Awareness Month and I am now issuing a NEW CHALLENGE TO CHEF BOBBY FLAY! After six years my cooking chops have only improved and I want to meet you and BEAT BOBBY FLAY! Yes, let's meet in your arena and I will create MY SIGNATURE diabetic, family friendly and extremely delish dish! I can bring the heat also ... I am not called the SAUCERESS for nothing! So, hear me FOOD NETWORK! Friends and family on this site, you have enjoyed my recipes for years now. Now, it is my turn to request that YOU CONTACT FOOD NETWORK AND TELL THEM THAT CHEF BARRAE WANTS TO MEET AND BEAT BOBBY FLAY!


ANY PROCEEDS RAISED, ANY MONEYS PAID TO ME FROM THIS CHALLENGE, WILL BE JOYOUSLY DONATED TO DIABETES AWARENESS AND EDUCATION! PLEASE STEP UP AND REACH OUT!

News from Chef Barrae!
 
 
My dearest friends and loyal followers,
 
It has been far too long since I posted here last and I apologize for that. Life has been full, filled and productive. I have completed my Gratitude Training and now get to use new and powerful tools in my life. I have begun several exciting new projects that are becoming fruitful and are definitely fun!
 
I get to share one of my favorite new projects with you RIGHT NOW! Chef Barrae, Inc. has a new spin off company called Sauceress Brand Fine Condiments. I am currently producing fine, handcrafted artisan condiments. There is nothing like these out there anywhere! These condiments are excellent for barbecues, marinades, dipping or slathering. These multi-purposed condiments are all natural, vegetarian, gluten and dairy free, contain no artificial flavors, colors, preservatives and NO ADDED SUGAR! Currently, I am offering three different condiments, Bimini Bacchanal, Thaigress and HabaHot. Each one of these condiments is made of over three dozen different ingredients, including at least six different chiles, and have smoky, deep, rich layers of flavor and heat. These condiments are not just about heat. They are able flavor. One of the most satisfying parts of this for me personally is that these condiments are all LOW IN CARBOHYDRATES. I would not have it any other way. Many of you know my recipes and have made them your own. There are testimonial after testimonial posted on this blog. I can absolutely guarantee that all of you will fall in love with these condiments.
 
Here is a brief description of each for you to consider.
 
Bimini Bacchanal is what I love to call a blend of tropical sweet and tropical heat. It is a complex blend of citrus, mango, herbs, island spices and dried chiles. This condiment is rated mild to medium heat. It will liven up anything from chicken to seafood to pork to beef. It is also fantastic as a baste for grilled fruit.
 
Thaigress is my personal favorite. In this you taste layers rich in smoke, molasses, chocolate, spices and herbs and this sauce gets its heat and sweet flavor from Thai chiles. This condiment is rated medium to bold heat. It pairs very well with chicken wings, either to baste or dip or both, pork, seafood like salmon, or slathered on burgers. Try this as a great dipping sauce for those jicama fries you might be making from my recipe.
 
HabaHot as the name implies gets its heat from habanero chiles as well as jalapeno, Serrano and more. It has an incredible depth of flavor, rich in aromatic spices, fresh herbs and a deep smoke and has flavor not just heat. This condiment is rated medium to bold heat. It is perfect as a barbecue sauce to grill beef or chicken for your low carb tortillas, is awesome on roast pork, fantastic on shrimp and so much more. This sauce will perk up any dreary, same old-same old dish you make.
 
So, now you might be wondering, "How do I get these delicious condiments?" and "Are they expensive?" The answer to both questions is simple. I have set up a new website, a blogspot site, equipped with PayPal for your convenience to accept any major credit or debit card. These condiments are priced right at $6.00 for a "small" (8 ounce bottle), $11.00 for a "large" (16 ounce bottle) or 2 large bottles for $20.00. We will ship these fine condiments anywhere in the USA. The shipping and handling is more than reasonable at $4.95. So, my friends, give this a try. You will not regret it one bit. In fact, you will have found something brand new, packed with amazing flavor that is low in carbs and has no added sugar. Please visit my website and check it out. Read the lists of ingredients for these condiments and see for yourself.
 
 
 
Please look for us on Facebook and Twitter under Sauceress Brand.
 
Thank you one and all. I cannot wait to hear from you and get your feedback on my new condiments!
 
In gratitude,
Chef Barrae

Chef Barrae Asks Your Help For Her Continued Education!

 

Hi! I'm Chef Barrae. Many of you have been visiting my blogsite for great low carb recipes for a long time now and I appreciate your doing so from my heart. For those of you who are new to my blog, welcome and please look around, read and help yourselves to some wonderful recipes!
 
At this point in my career, in order for me to better serve my clients, community, family and friends, I am involved in a series of workshops called Gratitude Training. Gratitude Trainings are transformational personal development workshops that emphasize the importance of Gratitude. 
 
What are some of the benefits from participating in the Gratitude Training:
  • Identify your life’s purpose and manifest it through taking action today. Why are you here?
  • Become more effective in your life by mastering the power of choice.
  • See how committed action will create your desired results.
  • Be grateful for everything in your life. No matter what!
  • Experience living without fear and anxiety. Dare to Risk.
  • Create greater intimacy, connection and openness in every relationship.
  • Be the change you want to see in the world and experience social change as your own life transforms.
Perhaps you can now see and understand the importance that this training will have on the work that I not only am currently doing but in the work that I plan on doing for my foundation next year.

I am presenting you with a link below. This link goes to my Indigogo account where you can make a donation for my education. You will receive a perk based on the amount that you are able to donate. I am beginning Gratitude Training on February 13, 2013 and have a lot of money to raise. Please help if you can and if you cannot afford to donate money, please pass the link along to all of your friends and family in your email and on your Facebook page, etc. Do what ever it is you can do to help me!

Thank you so much for your presence and for visiting and reading this. If anything, you will learn a lot about me when you read my story on the link. If nothing else, please read about my journey with Type 2 Diabetes and my escape from certain death.

In gratitude,
Chef Barrae

What a gorgeous good morning this day brings! Hello to all of my subscribers, visitors, friends and family! Much time has passed since my last post here ... please accept my sincerest apologies for that. I have not forgotten anyone or the purpose of this blog for one minute ... I have been quite wrapped up in moving my cause to fight Type 2 Diabetes forward and to reach out and help as many sufferers and prediabetics as I can. Life has been abundant with joy, Love and good health!

Here is some news about what has been going on ...

I have been providing free weight loss seminars in the South Florida area since this past July and have achieved great success in reaching out to many, many people! I simply share my story with everyone, what I did to overcome my suffering both with nutrition and weight loss and through an internal emotional healing process to rid myself of my mindless overeating triggers. To date, I have lost about 210 pounds, am healthy and fit! I am a Complementary and Alternative Medicine practitioner as well now and use what I have learned to help others in the same way these techniques have helped me. I offer private weight loss counselling, locally and nationally, have written a book called, "2-3-4 Weight Loss Solution Manual for Life", which is now available through this blogsite for the first time, and have of late been speaking publically within the heathcare industry about my journey. It is awesome and life is abundant! If you would like more information about any of the services I offer or my seminars please contact me at 234weightlosssolution@gmail.com and I will respond immediately!

As I mentioned, my path has been taking me in the direction of the healthcare industry and I have now offered my seminar at Genesis Community Health, a local healthcare provider in Boynton Beach, Florida, and have been honored to speak on World Diabetes Day at an event by Boerhinger Ingelheim pharmaceuticals in Ridgefield, Connecticut. My journey of reaching out to Type 2 Diabetics has come full circle and I am once again following that path. How amazing it truly is!

I am also very pleased to announce the offering of my book, "2-3-4 Weight Loss Solution Manual for Life" here on this blogsite for the very first time and am so excited to finally do this! It has been well received and has sold world wide now! How thrilling it is for me to share the weight loss Solution I have developed that includes both aspects of balanced nutrition and emotional healing and present it to you! I continue to say, "Eat, live and enjoy life!" and have now added, "Lose weight with Love" to my calling card! I have provided the safety and security of PayPal for your convenience. I am available to answer any questions you may have about The Solution! Please email me anytime!




Thank you all for your continued support and visiting this blogsite! I am honored to serve you all in any way that I can and will continue to do so ...
In gratitude,
Chef Barrae

I have now lost a total of 206 lbs., look and feel great and no longer test for my Type 2 Diabetes. I do not take any medication for blood sugar or blood pressure! I had about a year of private spiritual psychotherapy.  That impacted me so much that I studied Complementary and Alternative Medicine for the next year so that I could learn the techniques and methods that were used with me! Now I use them with my private clients!

I HAVE A BRAND NEW WEBSITE!!!

The cookbook is the first in a series and is available NOW for a special, limited time, discount price! The "2 - 3 - 4 Weight Loss Solution Manual for Life" will be available within a few weeks! Please visit my new website for all the details!

While you are there check out my weight loss progression photographs! Wow! I have gone from a morbidly obese 330 lbs. to a petite 124 lbs! The transformation is incredible and the "2 - 3 - 4 Weight Loss Solution" is why! I have combined the dual approach with my innovative nutrition program and deep internal healing! If you lighten the mind you will lighten the body! I know that I have purged my eating triggers for good! These caused my mindless overeating and the "yo-yo effect" when I tried to lose weight before! This is NOT A DIET! THIS IS A SOLUTION to lose weight and keep it off for good!
