I was shocked recently that I could have a plain oil-free baked potato and a steamed vegetable at Applebee's!

Mary trusted John’s recommendations because she knew he had done the research which amounted to the heavy lifting. The amount of reading he has done must be amazing.

@gamtngirl3655 2 жыл бұрын

Mary was just the partner John needed. He was right on the money in following the research, and Mary was right there to make it work food wise. I am profoundly grateful for the recipes I love, and for pioneering the way. I see my peers with their meds and health problems and my heart goes out to them.

Mary says she eats about 45% starch and the rest fruits and veg and goes on to say if you want to lose weight to eat 90% starch, that the starch helps you to lose weight. I find this confusing because Dr McDougall says if you want to lose weight to lower your starch and increase your veggies. This is what the 50/50 plate in the maximum weight loss is about. The opposite of what Mary says at 1:02:45

Incorporate it into your daily life against your finicky feelings and tendencies. They aren’t the resistance, YOU are. Ohhhhhhhmmmmmmmmmmmm 😇

She said Dr. McDougall ate meat, eggs, cheese when he was young and that made him tall, smart, successful and wealthy, but then he decided to turn against that diet since he didn't like those 4 qualities that it gave him. Then he says 99% of the successful living populations ate starch based. Well then how did he end up up eating meat, eggs and cheese? How did that get filtered down from the successful generations if 99% of the people never ate that? Can someone explain this?

The meat, cheese, eggs also gave him a massive stroke at 18, which still affects him today.

@g.e.boroush5176 2 жыл бұрын

I'm not sure what you mean by "smothered potatoes" exactly. But here's what I do. I just ate a bowl full of potatoes for breakfast - I smothered them with a spicy marinara sauce from a jar. I also smother them in a green chili from a can. BBQ sauce is scrumptious on potatoes as is salsa of all sorts. For toast, I figured out that if one spreads a thin layer of yellow miso on the toast and then a thin layer of tofu, and a sprinkling of nutritional yeast and smoosh it all together, it has the salty moist texture and flavor reminiscent of butter. This combination could also be mixed together and put on potatoes if one wished. So those are some thoughts.

This lady looks a little too skinny imho. Maybe as she has aged her protein requirements have increased from sarcopenia and her intake hasn’t kept up? Photos of her from 5 years ago shows a person without such a lean, drawn face.
