Guest guest Posted March 23, 2009 Report Share Posted March 23, 2009 It's interesting to learn of yet another group popularizing the non-fat vegetarian diet. As far as recipes you can follow the Dean Ornish, Caldwell Esselstyn and Jennifer Raymond books, and you don't need to buy too many before you've got alot of eating choices. A lot of the recipes listed here in this group, if you leave out the fat and much of the salt and sugar. It's great being able to eat as much as you want, lose weight and gain all these health benefits, as well as paying less for food!

After 4 weeks of the program, I lost 9 pounds (have lost total of 16 pounds now since I started) and dropped cholesterol from over 200 to 133, as well as totally stopping some medications and decreasing others. I want to stay with this lifestyle and believe that regular exposure to others who are living it, and sharing recipes and tips will help keep me on track over the long term. In exchange, I will try to be of help and encouragement to you. > Linda > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
