Guest guest Posted February 4, 2007 Report Share Posted February 4, 2007 Hi Suzanne and welcome! Burr! I can't imagine it being that cold out! That's great that your boyfriend has recently transitioned to being vegetarian. Sounds like you're on the right path to eat better. I recently received the You on a Diet book although I haven't looked at it yet. Nice to hear another positive review about it though. Again, welcome and make sure you check out our files for ideas and recipes. Cindi, co-owner with Pat Suzanne Walsh <suzmwalsh wrote: My name is Suzanne -- I'm in my 20's and I live in St. Paul, MN. And yes, the windchill was -25 when I woke up this morning. (= I am a vegetarian and have been on and off for about 13 years, strict for about the last 9-10 of those. My boyfriend gave up meat about 2 months ago for health and moral reasons so it's great to have him with me. Although, he has a lot of food allergies and digestive problems so when we cook together, we often make two batches of things or just do separate dishes altogether. I guess the only other thing to note is that I just recently started my own diet plan based off the " You: On a Diet " book and this WONDERFUL article from the NY Times (does the group mind posting links to articles?): http://www.nytimes.com/2007/01/28/magazine/28nutritionism.t.html?em & ex=117056520\ 0 & en=a8c883b29299cc12 & ei=5087%0A. Basically, I'm working to get away from processed foods or when possible at least away from refined sugars like high fructose corn syrup or non-whole wheat items. So far it's been difficult to adjust and requires lots of different grocery store stops, but it feels good to know I'm living healthier. So that's about it! Looking forward to some good discussions and recipes! Suzanne . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
