I'm done with the first week! I can say these few things about my first week on Dr Fuhrman's food plan (vegetarian for aggressive weightloss):
1) it has not been difficult to avoid the things on the avoid list, except and a few daily tablespoons of salad dressing.
2) It has been difficult to consume the amount of vegetables prescribed. I have not yet been able to get 1 pound of raw and 1 pound of cooked veg down my neck yet!!
3) I am not hungry more than once or twice a day. In the morning I want breakfast and I'm pretty hungry by about 1pm. If I eat a huge salad with beans and fruit, I feel pretty comfortable for the rest of the day. I've been reluctant to stuff more greens in my mouth at dinner.
4) I'vee lost 7 pounds this week and 4 inches off my waist.
For this coming week, I plan to:
1) make green smoothies as a way to hit the daily greens quota.
2) water my salad dressings down to half and half.
3) exercise more
4) experience the true hunger described in Dr Fuhrman's book.
