Love the thread title. Day 1 of fast done on to day 2. Goals for this month: figure out other food sensitivities. After the fast I plan on omitting beans for 2 weeks. See what happens. I will incorporate some different grains in our diet instead. Make it to the gym 3-4 days a week. We are off to see my daughter perform her…

I would suggest getting the book Eat For Health it is a gentler approach to becoming a nutritarian. I am with you 3000 calories is too many. I would gain weight with that many calories while breast feeding. Eating this way will make you feel better and prevent disease. All the new studies coming out state that if we let…
