    I appreciate all your great tips and advice. It’s amazing that I no longer even want the fast food, restaurant food, or processed snacks anymore. I love whole food desserts now! 😊💚

    Ami, I so can relate to not registering I am no longer hungry when I am eating something I adore! And the problem is, I really like almost everything I make . . . Even when it is a simple plate of steamed broccoli and a potato. Thank you for your great tips, recipes and posting!

    I’ve been loving water with a small splash of apple cider vinegar. Give it a try Ami. Bet you find it refreshing like I do.

    So glad you tried and liked the hot water, Amy!
    I eat potatoes daily. Love them as a starch staple. They are great for tucking into a purse as an emergency snack/meal-ha!
    I absolutely love making the orange sweet potatoes in the microwave and then freezing them for days when I don’t have any other food around or when I just want a quick meal. I love freezing a bunch before we go on vacation so that we have food prepared when we get home and the rest of our fridge is empty. They thaw beautifully and actually taste amazing partially frozen too. Super creamy. I have a video about it on my channel.

    This week I was mostly WFPB thanks to watching your channel. I felt great, I loved my meals, and my digestion was wonderful.
    One night I decided to “treat” myself to cheese and crackers and it wasn’t a treat at all. 😮
    I actually preferred the mashed potatoes with steamed (frozen) Brussel sprouts with a last minute “cheese” sauce that I made with soy milk that I’d had the last two nights.
    It’s like my programmed habitual self overrides my present happy new eating self.
    This way of eating is so bloody satisfying!! I never in a million years would have imagined that I would love the taste of Brussel sprouts. Mashed potatoes were my nemesis. I hated them. I honestly could not understand how anyone would go out for a meal and ask for mashed potatoes as a side. Now I’m in the shops looking for the best deal on a two kilo bag of potatoes so I can go home and gorge myself on mash with soy milk and salt and pepper. 😂😂😂

    I love ❤️ porridge. Can have it anytime of day. Sometimes I can’t be bothered to make a complicated lunch so I’ll enjoy some oats with fruit. I love ❤️ to add flax seeds or chia seeds. They’re so good you. That chocolate pudding looks delicious 😋. I love how you make simple food look so good. Xxxx

    Put some cauliflower in our gravy before you whiz it up in the blender. It makes it really creamy. Cauliflower is a great way to make things creamy. You can also add cauliflower to your potatoes before you mash them to reduce calorie density.

    A note for why you limit fruit on the starch solution is because for some people it raises their cholesterol levels, and it can affect their blood pressure because of it as well, so it’s just something to keep in mind and something Dr. McDougall really likes to make people aware of while they’re on the program, especially coming from pre-existing medical conditions. You got to be wary of that stuff.

      @@CastledarkDweller27 my cousin said once, why would they feed us things that could kill us.. and I looked at her sadly… money. Money makes people do foolish things, and in huge corporations. They just simply don’t care. Think about all the healthy brands that sold out to big brands, and now those products are SHIAT and people don’t even know cuz many (including me sometimes) don’t know they switch and don’t know the recipes have changed… been altered. It’s gross. The world we live in now, it could be amazing, but they choose to poison us instead for profit.

    In US the garlic salt contains plenty of salt and barely any garlic, so I started to buy garlic powder and salt separately. This way I can put loads of garlic and little bit of salt.
    Omg Krakus sauerkraut in England. Interesting to see it. I am not a fan of sauerkraut, even though we had it in our home. It makes my yeast infection flare ups 10x worse.
    I only like it and can tolerate it cooked in a bigos. I make it as a vegan version.
