It's on this thread:<BR/>https://forums.drfuhrman.com/view_topic.php?id=15544&forum_id=2<BR/>I've been slowly going through the reading list. There are a couple of nutrition books that look kind of boring but maybe they'll be interesting once you get into it (I hope).kneecaphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03974416387290525978noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1029964109647399617.post-30777947718196350902009-01-28T22:16:00.000-06:002009-01-28T22:16:00.000-06:00Barb,Have you started the certification class yet?...Barb,<BR/><BR/>Have you started the certification class yet?

I'm not good at deprivation either--that's what I've relearned the last month or so. But I seem to have no problem avoiding the cookies and muffins because I don't want them (rather than because I can't have them). Now I will just enjoy eating what I want again. I don't understand my own brain but I'll just go with what works.kneecaphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03974416387290525978noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1029964109647399617.post-42435173732793906932009-01-28T14:03:00.000-06:002009-01-28T14:03:00.000-06:00Interesting post.

If I want nuts/seeds, I eat them. If I want pasta and rice once in awhile, so be it. So far, I haven't gained any weight with this strategy, but, like you, I exercise a lot. If I were a couch potato, I would probably have to control myself more. <BR/><BR/>Maybe you can tell your clients that you are an avid exerciser and need the calories. Staying on the 6 week plan, would probably cause undersireable weight loss.Howard Veithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08029396508860758315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1029964109647399617.post-77403254930506946042009-01-28T00:15:00.000-06:002009-01-28T00:15:00.000-06:00Makes perfect sense to me, Barb!

So, what I'm trying to do, and what you already are doing, is to gradually get into the habit of just generally eating well and healthily, and not really worry about it too much. If once in a while, we get a craving for something, go for it--by being in the healthy eating habit a little bit of indulgence will satisfy the craving, and not really hurt our overall health. Plus, you certainly don't need to lose weight! And, your total cholesterol is practically lower than my LDL (last year)!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
