New Way of Eating

Hi. I've decided to start up on my blog again. It's been way too long & what better time to re-commit myself to this, than now. Right? 

 I've been on and off Keto for the last several years and was able to drop around 15 pounds, I got below 200 punds, which was really exciting! But, once the pandemic rear up, I used it as an excuse to fall off the keto wagon-hard. I've been struggling since then to get back. 

 Fast forward to the beginning of July. My husband, off handedly, said he didn't think I could to Raw Vegan. I said, I'll do it for a week; and I did. That turned into me doing some strange combonation of Vegan/Vegetarian. When I "research" a new diet or way of eating I obsessively watch YouTube videos about that particular subject. All three (raw vegan, vegetarian, starch solution) are closely related. 

 I'm not sure how I arrived at the starch solution, but I'm glad I did. As far as I understand you eat whole foods and are vegan, but also oil free. You are to basically eat starchy veggies and cruciferous veggies at each meal. That is what it is, in the simplest form. 

 So, I am fumbling my way through with the help of Dr. McDougall's The Starch Solution and YouTubers. I am back over 200 pounds again, but I think once I get a handle on this way of eating, I will easily get under that.

This is my dinner for the evening.  I found this bowl on Amazon.  I looked for a dish that was split in half because I need to have half starchy veggies and half cruciferous veggies.  

I'm going to try and be consistent with this, and am considering doing some YouTube videos.  What do you think?
