Re: planning meals
Hi Evelyn,
Hope you're still here - I see it's been almost a year and no one responded. I'm so sorry - I know it could be very difficult at the beginning, especially if you're doing this all on your own.
Actually I was just going to respond to the blogs - have you been reading them? I found it very interesting to see the differences between what Gary entered and what Mira entered. My first inclination was to jump in and tell Mira, oh, but we mb don't .... what nonsense. Everybody really does have to struggle with the menu planning by their own drum beat - and some people are lucky to have other people around playing other instruments, which can help alot. I might be wrong, but it seems to me that Gary has been fortunate in that having this site, he has been in contact with some amazing mb people. Gary, am I anywhere close in my guess? Mira says she has just been eating this way for about a year, and she's doing great. I've said it a zillion times, it's a life long process, and we all go at our own paces - with our own challenges (who's supporting us or not, if we're sick or healthy, if we have time and money for resources (counselors, classes, books) and motivation to put our time and money into it. No one way works for everyone, but same same same does seem to kill some of the enthusiasm to keep going.
I hope Evelyn you found ways to make your food interesting and you also found something (books, classes, people) that might have spurred you on. At some point, that which works the most is when you realize how food and life go together, and you start looking at food in a deeper way. Don't worry if you're not there yet, it could take years. Just wanted to let you know there's always more to look forward to. Having someone around who is a little (or a lot) more advanced is what spurs me on the most.
