Weight loss has been really sluggish so I'm starting a 10-day restrictive diet called "Mary's Mini". It's based on the principles of Dr. McDougall. "Mary" is his wife. Anyhow, it's meant to make the low-fat vegan diet that Dr. McDougall advocates easier and speed up weight loss for a short time. Basically, you pick a starch or whole grain and then eat only that with lots of veggies and some fruit. I picked potatoes as my starch and got a lot of frozen bags of spinach and broccoli. I also got Bragg's, Spike, salsa, and hot sauce to season my meals. So far so good...had a smoothie this morning and hash browns with nutritional yeast and hot sauce. I like its simplicity since during the week I don't get a lot of time to cook so having things that I can prepare in bulk gets me through the week easier. Hopefully, I'll have some good results to report next week!
