Guest guest Posted August 11, 2009 Report Share Posted August 11, 2009 Hi, Just thought I would say hello! I have been doing step one for about a month and am finding it all pretty amazing really. Having struggled with diets, self-help groups etc etc etc, for about 40 years, it is great to be doing something different, and this does feel really right in many ways. I have often wondered if my problems might be more physiological than psychological. I am in the Step one group, but have really enjoyed reading posts on this one also, as I do not eat meat. It is great to hear ideas for high protein vegetarian foods. Catherine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted August 12, 2009 Report Share Posted August 12, 2009 Hi Catherine and welcome. I'm smiling at your realization - if anyone had told me during my many years of therapy that my problem was physical/addiction I would have laughed at them. Strange how so many of my 'psychological' issues have disappeared since I got steady doing the food though!!!

Guest guest Posted August 12, 2009 Report Share Posted August 12, 2009 Hi, Thanks for the replies. I do feel quite blown away with all the support on here. As for what foods I enjoy ..... I like lentils, chick peas etc if they are cooked in an interesting way, and tofu is a useful and affordable staple, although I do not experiment enough with that. I like quite spicy food. I do Quorn things a lot for family meals - their range seems to be constantly expanding. It is quick to cook, cheapish, low fat, high in protein - makes being a vegetarian mum much easier. Do you have Quorn products in America?! It has only neen here for a few years. The new 'sausage rolls' have been great for picnics. I could also live quite happily off bread and cheese! I am delighted that this vegetarian group exists. Catherine , " cinziatre " <cmarchesani wrote: > > Welcome, Catherine!

Guest guest Posted August 12, 2009 Report Share Posted August 12, 2009 hi Catherine I echo what Jaki has said! I had bought so many books before I came across PnotP, & had spent a fortune on therapy too. I live in London, & am veggie at breakfast & dinner at the moment. I used to be fully vegetarian, but in fact I didn't really eat anything that wasn't bread, chips or crisps. It's good to see you here - I look forward to getting to know you.
