Her primary recommendations are: no artificial sweeteners, no soft drinks, do not store foods in plastic, no high fructose corn syrup, eat all natural foods and organic when possible. I modified my food habits to incorporate those and immediately lost 6 pounds, as well as felt calmer and more energetic. Your program seems to be very similar. Good luck! Oh, and if you have some resources for organic foods down here, let me know.

But I also don't believe in refined foods or simple carbs, GMOs or artificial ingredients....<br /><br />And apparently it DOES work, at least for tens of thousands in China!Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01550786937196525098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19935275.post-78710635468630514262010-11-21T07:08:07.161-05:002010-11-21T07:08:07.161-05:00It is a compelling read, however, all the "he...It is a compelling read, however, all the "healthy diets" such as Weight Watchers push this method for weight control... it just doesn't work.
