Guest guest Posted September 6, 2004 Report Share Posted September 6, 2004 I would have to say no on potatoes and rice but onions are probably ok. Stasia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 6, 2004 Report Share Posted September 6, 2004 Needless to say there are no vegetables one should 'stay away from' - only that some that have more water content so you can eat more of them. No one ever got fat from eating just vegetables. Some vegetables are considered on the starchy side (potatoes, yams, peas and corn) but to limit them would be silly for varieties sake. List your favorite vegetables and then, especially if its a short list, make it an important part of your program to increase your variety. Moms old rule of trying something at least once holds true :-) There are many vegetables I eat today that I thought I would not like. The fiber found in fruits and vegetables (besides all the goodforyou antioxidents) is like one of the secret weapons to losing bodyfat. The more fiber you can get into your diet the better (recommended is up to 30 grams a day) have a look at these simple charts to note the fiber content: http://www.drdecuypere.com/vegchart.htm (they have a fruit chart and a nit/seed chart as well) <<joni>> *food equals fuel, not a form of entertainment* ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 6, 2004 Report Share Posted September 6, 2004 Hello all! I am new to this group, just joined an hour or so ago and there is a lot of interesting information on here. I do have a question though. On the post about the Lean Out menu's ....I was curious...where are they? I have been looking for anything listed as Lean Out, etc. and have not found anything. I will definitely be back with more questions or concerns I am sure. I have been fighting my weight since I had my son 16 years ago and have been a yo-yo ever since. I look forward to be a much slimmer, much more healthier me! Thanks for the help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
