The same with brown rice. I can't eat just a spoonful or two.<br />I use very little fat in cooking and don't make nor eat sauces.<br />I'm glad you've lost so much weight.Batyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09402874037427009327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8476955.post-78873929861553251122010-09-30T20:45:36.221+02:002010-09-30T20:45:36.221+02:00Prelude: YOU do what works for you!

These 0% yogurts have all the calcium of the 3%. I get enough fat from milk and cheese, and from cooking.And in cooking, I use a healthier ytpe of fat than the milk fat. And if you are eating chicken skin (pure cholesterol!)why is 0% yogurt bad????!!??<br /> Also, many carbohydrates, if eaten WITHOUT fat, are a heathy part of a diet. For example, one slice of normal whole wheat bread is probably more filling than a big pear, yet it has fewer calories. And the whole wheat vitamins are good. <br /> A good diet is a NORMAL one (protein, low fat, fruits, vegies, and some carbs)taken in moderate amounts. I don't even call my "diet" (I have lost so far 40 kilos, ie 88 lbs)a diet. I call it normal living. I allow myself food I crave in MODERATE amounts (ie., one slice of cheesecake every motzai shabbas...but NOT for example motzai chag..., and maybe a cube or 2 of chocolate every month....these can change for person to person, but here the important thing is to really treat "treats" as a once-in-awhile-thing, and not the daily fare that they have become in modern culture!!).<br /> Normal eating of normal foods in moderate amounts (new "dieter" are urged to count calories and MEASURE portion size!), and getting out to exercise, AND getting enough sleep will leave a person feeling energetic, satisfied, and will result in weight loss. Also vitally important is to envestigate what is triggering overeating, and work to correct those underlying causes.rickismomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07817042750959998664noreply@blogger.com
