Guest guest Posted May 17, 2006 Report Share Posted May 17, 2006 I understand there are other kinds of flour..like Rice flour..Dont know how well it bakes but I have seen recipes Re: Nutritionist Good luck. I am back to my prehypo weight and it did require a change of eating habits. Cauley wrote: I started out eating only vegs and protein (meat & eggs only) and nuts or nut butter, to rid my body of all yeast. Then added back apples, oranges, hard cheese. After 3 months, I added back all fruit, vegs, salad dressing (small quantity). So, basically I do not eat any white products or flour or sugar. It is very similar to a diabetic diet where you watch the glycemic index. I also cheat with a cookie now and then, but stay away from all breads. In fact, I don't even enjoy bread anymore. Don't know how much of it is mental, though. My case is extreme, but my nutritionist has me on a very balanced diet. She says I will add back in some grains, eventually. I also buy everything organic. There is not a Whole Foods close by, but Kroger and HEB have organic meat at the butcher and a good selection of organic fruits, vegs and dairy. I know this is off topic but I wanted to let you know how my diet is. Oh, and I have lost 35 lbs in 4 months (gained 50 due to hashi') with 15 more to go. YEAH!!! P.S. Second appt. with Gilbert Manso is next Monday. We will see how it goes. He is a little overbearing (kind of gung ho) but prescribes Armour, tested my adrenal hormones, requested the right blood work. Wish me luck.

Guest guest Posted May 18, 2006 Report Share Posted May 18, 2006 , I just sent you an email with a couple of bread recipes. I normally get my nut flours (I use almond and hazelnut) from several different online sources. Nuts4u.com has good prices, netrition.com has average prices on nut flours, but great prices on alot of other items I use, and they have flat shipping for any size order, so sometimes it's worth it for me to order there if I need other stuff. If I need something last minute, I can always find them at Sun Harvest or Whole Foods (a little more expensive). If you're going gluten free, the main thing you need to remember is watching for hidden sources of gluten, especially in sauces, dressings, condiments, etc. If it has " modified food starch " listed in the ingredients, avoid it. You'll find if you eat packaged, prepared foods, that ingredient is as hard to avoid as soy! > > Niki would you mind giving me the recipe for the bread?

Guest guest Posted May 18, 2006 Report Share Posted May 18, 2006 Niki, if you don't mind would you forward those recipes to me also (email: carolyn.griffin@...). Thankfully, there is a Whole Foods not to far from work or home so I will be able to find necessary ingredients. Also, I have found a black bean brownie recipe that is terrific, no white sugar or white flour, but it does call for too much Splenda. I use less Splenda and I use some vanilla flavored stevia and I just got in some WheyLow which I will use next time. A friend of mine put some mini dark chocolate chips and pecan pieces in hers and said it was even better. Let me know if you would like it. I've shared it with several others and I've yet to find anyone who doesn't like it. Thanks in advance. Carolyn Re: Nutritionist , I just sent you an email with a couple of bread recipes.
