I took the last Swami and placed it on my computer..

I then opened another Swami and changed ONE line on the possibility of a new health 'condition' and then:

SWAMI changed my foods DAMATICALLY..  

Wow so nice to have instant feed back of changes and comparisons..

and new instant shopping list..

I gained several dairy products.. I gained and lost some other things.. Fab!!!!!  I love the changes just for change sake.. a new lease on life --- having fun.

Just this fooling around with one single answer.. created a whole different world for me..

I love it.. worth the paying a few dollars for SWAMI.. I love instant responses.  

There is a song about Swami, I wish I could sing it like the old blues singer.. but I hear the melody in my head!    I looked on google.. there is no song download for it.. so saaaad..

I think the song is Swanee & I think that is a river.

I sure wish I had more info to add to my SWAMI also.  Someday I hope to meet Dr. D or the group at Bridgeport & get more help!

The Beach boys also mentioned swami although they may have been referring to a sail

Goldie - I hope you are not just changing input data on swami just so you can get it to tell you to eat what you like lol

Goldie!  There is a wonderful Saint that they call Swami.  George Harrison was a big fan and so am I.  Sathya Sai Baba.  Lots of vid's of him around.  Don't know if there is a song but I'm sure there are chants.

It's so funny because when I say "thank you for my Swami" or "thanks to Swami".. I always think of Baba!!!  

Also does anyone know when the new Swami changes will be in effect?  I read something about them on some thread last week... didn't know if that was true or not.  

There are several variant to the Swanee River song.

I think the is the way Pete Seeger song the song:

Way down upon the Swanee River,
Far, far away, There's where my heart is turning ever,
There's where the old folks stay.

Chorus:

All the world is sad and dreary,
Ev'ry where I roam,
Oh, darkies how my heart grows weary
Far from the old folks at home.


All up and down the whole creation,
sadly I roam,
Still longing for the old plantation,
And for the folks at home.

Chorus Again

All 'round the little farm I wandered
when I was young,
Than many happy days I squander'd,
Many the songs I sung.

Chorus Again

When I was playing with my brother,
Happy was I,
Oh, take me to my kind old mother,
There let me live and die.

Chorus Again

One little hut among the bushes,
One that I love,
Still sadly to my mem'ry rushes,
No matter where I rove.

Chorus Again

When shall I see the bees a-humming
All round the comb?
When shall I hear the banjo strumming
Down in my good old home?

And then of course there's Swanee sung by Al Jolsen....

I've been away from you a long time.
I never thought I'd miss you so.
Somehow I feel
Your love is real.
Near you I want to be.
The birds are singing it is song time.
The banjo's strumming soft and low.
I know that you
Yearn for me too.
Swannee, you're calling me.

Swanee, how I love you, how I love you
My dear old Swanee.
I give the world to be
Among the folks in D-I-X-I-
Even though my mammy's
Waiting for me,
Praying for me
Down by the Swanee.
The folks up north will see me no more
When I get to that Swanee shore.

(whistling)
I miss the old folks at home.

Swanee, how I love you, how I love you
My dear old Swanee.
I give the world to be
Among the folks in D-I-X-I-
Even though my mammy's
Waiting for me,
Praying for me
Down by the Swanee.
The folks up north will see me no more
When I get to that Swanee shore.

I remember both Way Down Upon the Swanee River, and Swanee, How I Love Ya. I cross over the Swanee River every  time I go back home to Florida. It is a pretty place and the new bridge is nice. I don't go very often anymore, though. Once every few years. Things changed so much. Kinda sad.

Swanee, how I love you, how I love you
... yes that is the one I hear in my head.. somebody add some musical notes here.. ha ha

What I changed in the first line was the the first question about Cancer in MY life and made it Yes..
Before I had cancer only in my family.. (I think I am dads side-no cancer- but for a few days I did not know.. now I do and I am fine!!.. All the bumps the surgeon found are nothing. )

PC.. No I do not cheat other then with foods..

Mrs T O+    Maybe you need to start from scratch here and state all the issues that bother you TODAY, and see what might come of it.. I think you might be able to find answers by re-evaluating where you are.. I would love to be here to help.. If you are 'stuck' I might be a able to help.. PM me with your phone number if you wish..

This business of changing input data intrigues me.  I have changed mine several times as I have acquired new information. I would guess that is typical for folks in their first months of swami.

The change that has me chuckling is the Myers Briggs impact.  Myers Briggs is an interesting instrument that is not considered by  mental health/psychology professionals to be particularly valid. Interesting, yes. Valid, not necessarily.
Scoring parts of my MB seems like a c**p shoot, dependent on my mood, which of course may be influenced by my recent health. When MB scores me as J-judging, I get chocolate as a diamond-- Hunter.  When I am more tolerant and intuitive, chocolate is a neutral.  I actually used a more comprehensive MB than the one linked to swami and changed from Hunter to Explorer.

Could it be that when I am less open, eg.: crabbier, grumpier, the chocolate is prescribed to improve my outlook and mood??  

Goldie, so glad to hear your good news!!
