His slow carbs are beans... lentils and beans and other legumes.

He claims that lentils are easier to digest, and I am going to try that. Red beans really upset me! He has a "mashed" lentils with cauliflower" to subsitute for mashed potatoes.

I am doing steak and eggs omelets with some success for breakfast tho. That 30 gm of protein is difficult. I've also done salmon for breakfast. (trying to keep the new kitten off my plate! LOL )

He also states, that if you diet everyday, your thyroid hormones slow and stop converting to T3. Hence the "binge" once a week to prevent that. I guess he tested himself and showed that or has a study to back it up. I find this intriguing too... because of my low thyroid status.

Amazon is offering this huge hardcover book 1/2 off right now. It was only $13.98.
