Guest guest Posted October 16, 2009 Report Share Posted October 16, 2009 Can you do dairy? Avocados are good, how about cheese, extra meat, butter, coconut oil, nuts butters- calorie dense foods. I know the argument against fats causing fat- but going for more calories without too many carbs will help. You still need some carbs- how about adding nut butter and coconut oil to the banana smoothy?

I did a couple of things- I read " Life Without Bread " and thought about limiting my carbs- not going no carb, but limiting them. I know some people do this for yeast, but I tried it because of the GI benefits discussed in the book, and it seems to be working. My weakness was using honey in tea, and yogurt, so I cut that out. I also love frozen bananas, and I could eat a bunch, but I limit them to one a day or less. > > > > Bananas have a lot of carbs. You may want to consider not eating as many- still have your smoothies, but then eat more protein, fats, or lower carb fruits and veggies instead. > > > > I also am trying LDN, and I think it is making a difference. Still, I was " mushy " a few days ago, and since cutting down on carbs, it's better. > > > > Hope this helps! > > > > PJ > > > > > > > > > > > > _________________________________________________________________ > Hotmail: Free, trusted and rich email service. > http://clk.atdmt.com/GBL/go/171222984/direct/01/ > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
