Especially the one about having the rest of your life. How inspirational! I have Marilyn's American Vegetarian Cookbook, which has some fabulous recipes in it, but on thing that I wonder about: I understand that eating fruit first thing in the morning is good for your body's cleansing process. But she claims that eating "concentrated carbohydrates" in the morning (after such fruit) can result in a huge drain of energy. I started eating fruit and drinking water first thing when I get up, then after I get ready for my day I have a "second breakfast" of complex carbs like whole grains and protein. This totally works for me, though the FFL book wants you to eat fresh fruit until noon. I am kind of confused by this because many "diet for weight-loss" plans have you eating whole grains and protein in balance at every meal. I am hypoglycemic so this works for me, but I do eat fresh fruit and drink water when I first wake up. Any thoughts on this?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
