I also have had success on LDL. I' m still amazed that If I get hungry, I can eat all the bountiful fresh vegetables and fruits that I desire. I have been more satisfied with my eating the last 5 years than ever. It works! Need to plan. Need to eat the non processed foods. Thankful for God's grace in giving me this way of eating. :ymhug: JF

I am getting back to let you know how I am going. I have been going for 10 weeks now and losing slowly . Love the diet most of the time. Basically my diet is pretty simple. Breakfast is either a smoothy, eggs, beans, leftovers or sometimes some cereal. Lunch is meat, fish or chicken and vegetables and tea is soup, eggs, salad or pancakes.
I am still always hungry so cannot avoid snacking between meals, meaning I eat popcorn, corn thins, ryvita or something with peas beans or corn in between breakfast and lunch and between lunch and tea and then after tea. I have tried eating larger meals and it doesn't work.
I saw a show on TV the other night. It was very scientific and done with testing etc. and they said that some people have a sort of hormonal switch that doesn't tell them accurately when they are full, empty, hungry etc. I think I am one of those people. However with LDL because I am eating the right foods it shouldn't matter.
I have eaten out 3 times. First time I just had a salad with dressing on the side and a diet drink. Second time, was roast of the day....a half serve and I gave the potato to DH. Scraped off some of the gravy. No desserts etc. Next time I had the same roast of the day but asked for a garden salad as well and had dressing on the side.
Is it possible to eat too many frozen grapes? I tend to get up through the night 2 or 3 times and I munch on 6 frozen grapes each time.
There is a cereal I can buy which is puffed corn with absolutely nothing added. I have this maybe once a week.
I found a corn couscous in the supermarket which is made of corn flour and supposedly nothing else. Would that be ok once a week, a quarter of a cup?
I don't have cravings at all. There was a birthday cake in the house and I had 3 teaspoons of it just for a taste.
The thing I miss most is the dairy. Some things just don't seem right without cream or custard on top but I do the frozen banana ice cream.
Some of my clothes are a bit loose but not quite ready to go down one size yet.
this is the first diet that has ever worked for me.
