I try to eat protien and veggies at every meal. Snack on fruits and

nuts and try to limit grains to one serving per day. I also indulge

in a lot of chocolate, but I only needed to lose 15lbs and the last 7

dropped off in February.

Betsy,

This post did come through. I'm having the strange problem that my messages are

being posted, but I'm not receiving them. The only way I know they got through

is by going directly to the

Groups website and seeing them there.

Good luck!

Hi,

I joined this list about 10 days ago, and have been reading with great

interest. This morning I got up enough nerve to post a question -- but it

hasn't appeared yet. Then I remembered some conversation a few days ago

about the list having been abandoned by its owners, and since new members

can only post with permission, that would explain why my post hasn't shown

up. Is there anything anyone can do to flick that switch that will enable

me to post?

I don't know the answer to her question, so I am posting it to the list for

her, in hopes that someone can answer.

Betsy

This is what I wrote this morning:

----------------

Hi,

I'm very new to this plan, having been pointed to it by a nutritionist about

a month ago (I didn't start following the plan until last week). I am

trying to figure out what a daily meal plan looks like, and the books aren't

much help as they don't specify types or portions, just food options. Have

any of you worked out a daily meal plan that looks something like this:

Breakfast: protein, dairy, grain, fruit

Lunch: protein, grain, vegetables

etc.

and then worked out what kind of portions to have? I have been off sugar,

wheat, flour, and most dairy for the past year anyway, so that's not a major

change for me. I have also lost 80 pounds over the past few years, and

consider that I have another 20-30 to go, so I'd like to be losing weight on

this plan, though it's not as much of a priority as getting myself feeling

better. I typically eat three meals a day, with an optional snack in the

late afternoon if dinner is going to be later than usual.

I've tried to work out a weekly plan, plugging in how many times a week

D'Adamo recommends each type of food, but I'm getting lost with that

approach. Do you have any recommendations for me?

By the way, I have no idea whether I'm secretor or non-, but am definitely

type O.

Thanks for whatever help you can give me.

Welcome and congratulations on your success so far.

- I would suggest that you keep the general way you're eating now

since it's been successful for you. Just substitute beneficials or

neutrals for any avoids.

- If you're not having protein at least with every main meal I would

make that modification. Hope that helps, D'Adamo just gives the

portions as a guideline.

- Work in more fruit and healthy oils/nuts if you've avoided those

with past weight loss efforts. They can gradually replace grains that

are above the required servings.

- You might check out the Diabetes book from the Health Library. It

gives a four week phase-in and is also good for weight management.

- I also advise that you find out your secretor status. There's a

pretty big difference even within Type O, mainly more meat and less

grain for non-secretors.

- A good target is several beneficial foods every day with at least

one beneficial protein every day.

Good luck,

Cheryl

I don't use dairy anyway, because I'm lactose intolerant, so I've been using

never know where to place that when calculating portions.

I'm in the process of seeking out the diabetes book (as it runs in my

[Guest guest]

Carolyn - nuts are source of fat

Dried fruits - yes

If you are doing this diet to get healthy and to prevent further damage

and feel as good as you can, the answer is animal protein, green

veggies, fat every time you eat.

Thinking that a high sugar, high starch breakfast is healthy for us is

beyond words.

After fasting for 8 hours, the body needs fuel to function all day. That

is why we eat.

Treat food as the most powerful drug in the world - if you think I am

exaggerating, see how many people are capable of giving up wheat or

dairy for good.

Realize that you are what you eat.

Hope it helps.

Here's my take on your questions:

Nuts: They do serve as some protein. I don't think it would ever be wise

to rely on them as a sole source of protein, but they are certainly

functional for filling little gaps especially if you eat several small meals

a day.

Dried fruits and vegetables are like nuts in that they do serve as

substitutes, but it isn't wise to rely on them as anything but small

contributors to your overall total calories. Dried fruits and vegetables

have higher calorie counts per gram and also are higher on the glycemic

index unless you drink sufficient water at the same time you eat them.

I can't respond to what Robin does :-) but I think a goal of eating protein

and vegetable at each meal is excellent.

BTD or Blood Type Diet are both just ways some of us refer to this way of

living. There really isn't a hard, fixed way of identifying this collection

of choices that we make, but I think we'd all understand either on this

board. Among people who don't know about it you might try explaining the

hallmarks of how you eat (i.e. protein, veggies, beneficial foods etc.)

before you give them a convenient label which may make them toss it on the

ash heap of " fad diets " For the average non-curious person it's a confusing

thing to relate blood type to health and eating properly so many just think

it's a hoax just from the label of " Blood Type Diet. "

I'm not sure about anything soy because I'm a Non-Secretor and avoid soy

with a passion :-)

The three fruits you mentioned have varying glycemic indexes. Bananas have

the highest, grapes a moderate to low and cherries have a pretty low

glycemic index (assuming you are referring to the fresh fruit and not

dried). Glycemic index (how fast the sugar begins to circulate in the blood

and effect blood sugar levels) and Glycemic load (Glycemic index adjusted to

a real amount by the amount of the food eaten) are the important

considerations when determining the effect these foods could have in helping

you avoid Type 2 Adult onset Diabetes. Type 2 Diabetes most common

characteristic is insulin resistance. Your cells must receive nutrition to

continue living and operating and these nutrients are driven into the cells

by insulin. One theory suggests that constantly elevated insulin levels

(often caused by consuming exclusively high glycemic index foods in high

amounts, aka high glycemic loads) over a long time (our young adult and

adult life) are a cause of insulin resistance. I think you're safe eating

the cherries and even the grapes. Eat bananas but be aware to eat just one

piece of a banana at a time so you don't spike your insulin. If possible

eat some nuts or protein just in advance of the banana and it will ease the

effect of an insulin increase slightly.

Posting actual foods and times you eat is an excellent way to get good

feedback from the group.

I hope this helps :-)

Post your diet - soy yogurt is a source of sugar/carbs. Not sure of a

food? Look at the label. 6 grams of protein and 34 gr of carbs in a

yogurt qualifies it a carb.

Soy is not very good for you daily.

Most people make the mistake of replacing avoids (regular yogurt) with

soy yogurt as an example. Spelt instead of wheat.

That is not what the O diet is all about. I guess you have to learn to

eat the O way. We have been programmed by the media to eat a certain way

for decades. I know the switch is not easy.

Sorry for the brevity of my earlier message. I had a fussing baby in

my lap. YES! By meals I meant breakfast lunch and dinner. Try

sauteeing a bunch of swiss chard with olive oil and garlic for

breakfast and then topping it with an egg cooked over easy or

softboiled. You will never want hash browns and toast again!!! Once

I got serious about green leafy vegetables and got wheat mostly out

of my diet, I began to feel sooo good that my old notions about meals

just slipped away. Also, when I ditched the popular idea that fats

are bad and whole wheat is good, I finally lost those hard to lose

last few pounds that every other diet/way of eating failed to take

off.

I forgot to mention beverages in my earlier post. I drink filtered

water or seltzer as often as I am thirsty during the day and one

serving per day of each: green tea and beneficial juice. BTW, black

cherry juice is best diluted with seltzer.

Fussing baby is back. Fancy that, she thinks I should be reading her

books instead of staring at the computer screen.

Carolyn - I don't want to sound too harsh, plus I don't know what shape

you are in, or if you have any ailments.

1 - fruits - only on an empty stomach. Eating fruit after a meal makes

the fruit ferment. Do you get bloated, gassy?

2 - you are consuming way too many carbs and too little protein. Just

imagine how much better you would feel if you eat like an O.

3 - too much soy and it is toxic to the O system if consumed regularly.

4 - melons - always alone.

5 - where is FAT????? You thrive on it!

Please reread the O section in both ER & LR.

, thank you for the feedback. You don't sound harsh. I'm still

learning this plan (it's only been about 12 days I've been using it to any

degree), and I am open to any suggestions.

> 1 - fruits - only on an empty stomach. Eating fruit after a meal makes

> the fruit ferment. Do you get bloated, gassy?

I don't feel bloated or gassy when eating fruit. I looked back in the two

books and nowhere do I see anything about eating fruit alone. In fact, all

the sample menus have fruit as part of a meal. Where is this information

coming from?

> 2 - you are consuming way too many carbs and too little protein.

Yes, this I know. I'm coming off a meal plan that relies on starches and

grains, and so the switch is a little slow, but I'm working on it. That's

why my portion of sweet potato (mentioned earlier) is so big -- the portion

on that plan is 8 oz potatoes, 1 cup rice/etc.

> 3 - too much soy and it is toxic to the O system if consumed regularly.

Working on that too. I anticipate using soy only a few times a week, if

that. I won't be buying more of it.

> 4 - melons - always alone.

Again, where can I find that in the literature? As for melons in general, I

thought melons were avoids (only watermelon is okay).

> 5 - where is FAT????? You thrive on it!

And I have plenty of it. Salad dressing, mayonnaise (no sugar), oil to cook

in, almond butter, almonds, walnuts. I do have cholesterol issues, so I'm

careful, but I'm not manic about low-fat or no-fat.

I spent some time planning the next few days. Could you (anyone) please

provide feedback to see if I'm getting it?

1

B: 1 egg, sauteed swiss chard/garlic/mushrooms, puffed rice w/soy milk

L: lamb, salad w/walnuts & dried cherries, cherries

D: chicken, kohlrabi, salad, plums

2

L: Chinese sauteed chicken w/vegetables, rice

Rules on fruit come from " food combining " for proper digestion.(different book)

Eat fruit with nuts only for a snack or light meal.

You have Soy everyday on your new schedule.

Good fats help cholesterol. Starches are not good for cholesterol

Good fats -- Flax oil, olive oil, almonds, walnuts, salmon oil caps. You are

probably not getting enough.

Salad dresssing and mayo are not usually good fats.

Those are the things I notice

Hang in there

Hi Carolyn – I know others have responded to your reply already, but

here is my take:

FOOD COMBINING MADE EASY by Shelton

I will not tell you to follow it 100%, but melons alone, fruits on an

empty stomach, don’t mix veggies with fruits are good advises to follow.

Here is another bog one: EAT SIMPLE! Don’t include too many different

foods in the same meal. Once you eat that way, regardless of your blood

type, YOU WILL FEEL BETTER.

FAT: butter, ghee, olive oil, flax oil, - any of these at each meal, on

top of your food unheated, at least 1 tablespoonful.

Now!

1

B: 1 egg, sautéed Swiss chard/garlic/mushrooms, puffed rice w/soy milk

***eat more eggs and leave out the rest.***

L: lamb, salad w/walnuts & dried cherries, cherries

*** leave out the cherries***

D: chicken, kohlrabi, salad, plums

***drop the plums***

2

B: blueberry waffle (made with 2 eggs, 1/2 cup oats, soy powder,

blueberries)

***not good – too many carbs and puny amount of protein***

L: scallops, salad, broccoli

*** Good!!!!!***

D: chicken, coleslaw (mayo), grapes

***drop the mayo and grapes***

3

B: manna bread w/almond butter, soy yogurt

L: Chinese sautéed chicken w/vegetables, rice

***Now you are talking my language!!!!
