My library has the book but it is checked out, so they DON"T "technically" *have* the book, if you KWIM!? LOL It's due back 2-17 and I put a hold on it.

Meanwhile I'm trying to find websites about it. I have not yet found where it explains the plan at all. I did sign up for the newsletter.

I am SO ready to feel more comfortable in my body!

If you are on Pinterest there are a lot of THM recipes you can search for.
Also.. look up Gwen's Nest.
She has a lot of info.

I can get you links tomorrow if I have time. Right now I'm going to bed.

There is also a THM beginner's FB page.

oh.. the "carby" meal I posted in a previous post. I'll copy and paste that tomorrow too. It's in this thread somewhere. Let me know if you don't see it.

I am NOT on Pinterest and just can't go there. TOO ADDICTIVE! ;-)

I have found Gwen's Nest, a THM fb page. I haven't found the meaning of the letters, tho'. Is it a secret code? :mrgreen:

And, yeah, I was wondering why you were up so late! LOL

Do you mean "S" and "E" that sort of thing?
It's the type of meals. S is "satisfying" or healthy fats meals.
E is "energizing" or healthy carb meals.

There are others that I'm still learning, lol! It 'is' like a secret code.

I don't get on pinterest either!!! No way.

Yes. I see. I couldn't figure out the letters but figured they had something to do with the fat meal and the carb meal. That makes sense now, thank you. Since it's similar to Somer's and I have her book I think I'll re-read that while I'm waiting for the other to get back to the library. I'm betting the woman that has the THM book will want to renew it and she won't be able to with my hold on it. hehehe (I'm so mean!) She can turn around and put a hold on it after me, tho'.

Funny how the tho't of eating that way again makes me crave naughty carbs! sigh

I don't eat this way 100% and it still works. Remember, my ds works at a pizza place! He's always bringing his "work" home. I do try to be more aware of what I'm eating and eating more vegetables. However, sometimes a good slice of pizza tempts me in the wrong direction!

People are SO Funny with what they THINK is in food! Before I went vegetarian, I've taken my Tofu Tamale Pie (the with-cheese variation) to a Church covered dish before. Baked it in a nice Cast-Iron skillet. I wasn't trying to push tofu off on people - I just took it because it tasted good! It was devoured down to the last crumb by folks who probably still think that they would never and have never tried tofu.

On the other hand, I'll take utterly decadent desserts to covered dish dinners (now that people KNOW I'm vegan) and folks will say "Oh, I couldn't try that! You might've snuck tofu into it!" (just for the record, I don't "sneak" tofu, and I only cook with it about once a month!)

Thank goodness, people at my current Church are generally very open to the whole vegan thing 'causa Lent & all.

I just found a recipe for vegan whipped topping that my dd with MS loves, its from the jazzyvegetarian.com (breakfast show #412) its tofu in a blender with a banana and a little pure maple syrup. She is closing in on almost a year free of symptoms (in March).
