I just finished a book from Rodale Publishing "The Glycemic Load Diet". It is a 2in1 book - program plus cookbook. FASCINATING! It is everything combined in these comments. The major rule is NO flour or grain products, including rice, NO potatoes and no sweetened drinks (including Juice). Whole fruit IS ok though. <br /><br />The author, Rob Thompson, MD doesn't have a problem w/ animal products. Apparently the problem is genetics rather than consumption. He even has a lot to say about the very adaptable CAULIFLOWER !ZoeBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05029947538176354381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1704170106558126102.post-47679433434259076892012-07-09T19:39:25.500-04:002012-07-09T19:39:25.500-04:00My Nutriligion (thank you, Anon) is simply, "...My Nutriligion (thank you, Anon) is simply, "If I'm allergic to it, I don't eat it. If I don't like it, I don't eat it." That eliminates pretty much everything processed, and since I love most vegetables (not cauliflower, Crabby, you can have mine) I naturally eat a lot of them. But I have no desire to reduce carbs, and certainly not sweets. (Stevia! I tasted some about twenty years ago, and even now every time I hear the word I go "Blergh!")<br /><br />Mary Anne in Kentuckysolarityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03606487180967915130noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1704170106558126102.post-28972499603836432972012-07-09T19:29:43.789-04:002012-07-09T19:29:43.789-04:00It's not expensive if you make it; this, of co...It's not expensive if you make it; this, of course, requires a source of fresh goat milk.

I mean really... AND I think that should be your next (first?) Food Contest: the winning recipe. You could even stipulate that celery is on a short list of excluded ingredients as well as outlining what MUST be included.<br /><br />Because I am of the OCD persuasion, of course FOOD is something that absolutely lends itself to my proclivities. How much? How little? What size plate? (or, can I just use a paper towel and skip messing up/cleaning up the sink yet again?) But - I digress...<br /><br />My own Nutriligion is very close to your own - except that I recently found out that unsweetened/unadulterated soy "milk" is pretty OK in coffee. Who knew?<br /><br />Plus - I, too, have faith that I will not develop some horrid condition just from using Splenda in a cup of tea every now and then :) <br /><br />Finally - I know with unshakable certainty that absolutely NOTHING can substitute adequately for old fashioned, yukon gold, butter AND cream-enhanced, well salted mashed potatoes. (No skins either - thank you very much - that would only wreck the complete anti-health allure of them.)<br /><br />They are why Thanksgiving was invented, right? And - aside from Mac 'n Cheese - THE quintessential comfort food. Sadly - I can not allow them as more than a rare, occasional Indulgence for which I required to do heavy penance. Yes - when the divorce is finalized, you will find me with a big, heaping, steaming bowl in my lap and THEN out for really loooonnnnggg trot the next day.
