Guest guest Posted April 28, 2009 Report Share Posted April 28, 2009 Hi, Everyone. Glad to meet you all. I recently joined the group, have lurked for just a couple days, and am finally getting around to this introduction stuff. I guess I should start by saying I'm sort of in transition between the average drive through american to a more conscious individual, and I'm also looking for ways to include more vegetation in my husband's diet. Son is very well rounded, loves everything. Lately I've been managing to be more food conscious every other day. I'll gradually add more days as time goes on. Junk food and fat addictions seem hard to break, and this seems like a gentle approach that I can stick with. I'm very into gardening this year, and hope to eat locally as much as possible. Trying to grow pretty much everything. Has anyone tried Rhubarb Juice?! That's a new turn-on/pop substitute. Unique and tasty. Can't wait for the grapevines to produce, and am hoping and praying that the blueberries take to their new home. Thought I'd try some soybeans (I hear they're very good when young and fresh) and garbanzo beans (mmmm, so smooth and buttery tasting). Does anyone know if green beans and wax beans have protein in them? I have a little fibromialgia type trouble with nuts (possibley nuts in conjunction with chocolate, but don't the two always go together?), and can only eat them about every fourth day, so I'm looking for other protein sources. Yes, beans and whole grains I know. Dairy and eggs. Does that about cover it? As for the TV question going around...I'm love watching " House " every night. It's my down time. I sure needed that last night after attending a funeral! Good to meet everyone. Have a great day! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
