I have a green smoothie every day with kale, spinach, chard, berries and bananas and flax seeds. Sometimes, if I need more carbs for a workout, I make oatmeal with cinnamon and blueberries, but I only have about 3/4 a cup of oatmeal with my smoothie. I am usually pretty full after that.

I am doing it consistently... well like 99% because I still use organize salad dressings on my salads, and those have oil in them, but I measure them out as part of the 150 discretionary cals he says are okay in the second book. So far, I am on day four and I am doing great! It is hard, and I do crave sugar after I eat…

I have a degree in nutrition, so I know how it works. I know eat to live has less calories, but there is no calculated deficit, or calorie counting. In fact, you are encouraged to eat huge portions every meal. I have plenty of understanding about nutrition-- when I said deficit, I meant restrictions on portions. That to me…

you really should read the book, because all of the advice here has been terrible. Sugar and processed foods are killing the world, and you don't have to eat at a deficit if you eat healthy foods. Read Eat To Live, or the newer book, The End Of Dieting, in order to understand what "eating what you like, but less of it"…

as an eat to live person, you've got embrace plant proteins, or you will always be hungry. I put avocado and lentils in most of my salads, as well as a generous amount of almonds and walnuts. You can also add more beans to anything you are eating. If you're actually feeling hungry (and not just TOXIC hunger) then those…

I am doing the eat to live lifestyle change. No counting calories, and the weight is coming off effortlessly (I do exercise as well). Not only that, but I am SOOO healthy. I have IBS and have had no stomach problems since I started, and I also have clearer skin and no food cravings. It is awesome. I love eating this way.
