It's about eating smart carbs and "whole foods" for lack of a better term. JMO..

I am really impressed that we had no votes (so far) that this is just a low carb diet. I had a hard time selecting between Healthy foods and Both. I selected Healthy foods. I think that health was the main factor in the creation of the diet and we should remember that at all times.

Irene...good to see you posting again. i suppose you do a lot of lurking though. do you still do the apple before meals thing? What other fruits do you enjoy? I'm looking for more variety as I gear up for setting another goal.

Thanks

Wow! I'm glad to see that so many people chose either healthy foods or both. I was worried there for a bit that too many people posting had some idea that this was primarily a low carb diet, and that is not the impression the book gave me at all. I chose healthy foods, because I sense very strongly that the book talks more about healthy food choices than carbs or any other diet choice. In fact, I chose this diet over others because I was impressed at how I could eat natural foods and still stick to a "diet" on which I actually lost weight and didn't gain it back within the next couple of weeks.

Hi Irene,

I had the same thoughts and also, in the end, chose "Healthy foods" instead of "Both". Same reason... it's about health, and eating the healthy kinds of carbs.

Oh, don't worry about that, Jill K. It looks like this thread was bumped off long before that "other" one. I just found myself reading it. I almost replied with a caution message, to remind people that responding to saboteurs can adversely affect our attitudes, our use of time, and our ivillage memberships, but then I realized that a reply would only end up bumping that post up...
