Kim: potato

[Guest guest]

OK Kim, just a question. You said:

Kathleen (RR inventor) says that when the glycemic index was done,

they used a potato without its skin, which indeed is bad for blood

sugar. With its skin, it's more akin to other brown carbs. I find

that it's satisfying and keeps me full for a long time. It has not

given me blood sugar problems, eaten as part of a meal with its skin

on.

I don't like to eat anything after dinner but the potato seems to be

helpful. I am frightened to stop having it. I was in the local

village this morning with my little girl, it was raining, she was

agitating for the toilet, and tears started streaming down my face

in full public view. I almost walked to my doctor down the street

with the intention of begging him for help, but managed to calm

myself and get a grip. Maybe I'll be able to stop the evening potato

but I need some calm first, some security.

I don't want to get into any arguments, I know I'm not an expert.

It's just that a lot of people have been helped by Kathleen's

programme too, I've got her books, and they speak to me. She's

spoken to me, tried to help me herself. I hope you can understand

that it's hard to come here and be told that parts of it are wrong

and that I've got to change what I'm doing. Don't get me wrong, I am

open to that, but it's a big shift and it requires some trust. Can I

let all this " digest " a while?

I'll answer your other post now with the info you asked for Kim,

thanks.
