Hi, all. I have recently found this website and am compelled to visit every day! I will be buying Heather's books soon but we're moving to Arizona (from New Jersey) in a few day's time. So, until I have an address where the book can be sent, I need some help. Can anyone give me a sample of their day's food intake, bearing in mind that I want to lose a few lbs. at the same time. This will hopefully give me a starting point for how much food I need.

Hi Patty, I'm new to this also, so we can be partners! I also live in Arizona! Phoenix, where are you moving? You have a friend in Arizona now...

Hi and welcome! The good news is that you can find all the diet guidelines right here, without even buying the books. The books are more complete, of course, and I still recommend them, but the basics are online - you can get started right away!

I recommend starting with "What to eat when you can't eat anything" for a few days, and then slowly start to add in insolubles, safely. Start a fiber supplement, too, and remember to increase that slowly. Drink lots of water and herbal tea, and remember to get some exercise! I can't give you weight-loss suggestions, but if you stick to a moderate calorie intake per day and stay active, your weight will be managed while you stabilize your insides.

Good luck, and welcome again!

Hi, Jessica, we're moving from New Jersey next week. Going to Sedona, AZ. It's about 2 hours from Phoenix, in the mountains. My husband's an artist and Sedona is a mecca for artists. Have you been there?
