This was a big week for me--and I am not just talking weight loss. I was actually surprised to see that I had lost any weight at all this week. No, I didn't fall off the wagon. I changed wagons.
I decided to move from a low carb diet and begin to eat a whole food plant based (WFPB) diet. It's quite similar to vegan, but some vegans eat only for the sake of the animals and fill up on things like oreo cookies (yes, they're vegan)and meat substitutes that are not necessarily health promoting.
In any case, folks who eat low carb often report that if they increase their carbs they put on a bunch of water weight very quickly. That is why I was surprised by the weight loss.So far, so good.
I did a lot of research before making this decision. I decided to start last week because there was a 4 day on-line seminar with some of the leading proponents of LFPB eating being put on by University of California, Davis in celebration of World Food Day 2014. Here is a link to the Nurture Your Health webinars: http://nurtureyourhealthforum.com/nyhf2014/
BTW, I was shocked to find that my blood glucose numbers are great--even with 2x the carbs I had been eating. None of thee speakers at the webinar would be though.
