What are you eating???

[atomic sagebrush]

Belle, I don't think apples are a bad idea at all for pink. Yes, they are alkalinizing and have some potassium, BUT they are a great source of fiber and are satisfying and filling.

Here's my day for today...A lot of this is NOT for PINK but I know I'll drop the weight quickly. Still having trouble w/food as I'm eating things like broccoli and cauliflower (sways BLUE!). I used to put kale in my a.m. smoothie but that's definitely not PINK. Aside from the cranberry, yogurt and calcium, I think this is all BLUE unfortunately. Yesterday was similar but was only 850 cals (which I won't do often since I'm breastfeeding and metab slows down too much and thwarts my weightloss attempt).

Yup...I'm struggling w/the girl diet. Hoping the 20-something lbs. I lost last summer will help but I know diet before TTC is a HUGE part of swaying...

Are there any vegetables that are girl-friendly? Or any that do not sway boy? It's interesting reading about what others eat!

Well, most fruits and veg are alkalinizing and so are believed to sway blue BUT I am not sure that this is the key to swaying. I wrote a "Low-Everything" diet that includes fruits and veg and it's available in the Dream Member section.

[swish]

I'm getting into the swing of the diet now, here's what I had today.
No breakfast, strawberry nutrigrain bar at 10
Lunch - ryvitas with humous (not great but low fat version) and strawberries
Dinner - pasta with leeks, peeled courgettes, unsalted butter and a little Parmesan with a squeeze of lemon. A glass of cranberry light juice.

That's the way you do it swish! Great job.

[zanacal]

Swish, I quite like the nutrigrain bars but I thought they were a no because they have both oats and wholegrain? Have you tried Ryvita Crackerbread? (The white ones in the yellow box with red writing - I didn't know they were made by Ryvita actually!). They look good because they don't have wholegrains but have hardly any calories, protein and fat. You're ahead of me of course - because I haven't even started the diet yet!!
