Dear Phil,
Yes, I am being careful with the fruits now and adding grains back in, cutting the former back to 3 minimum and upping the latter to 10 servings. And all hail rice! The grains may not have the best rep nowadays, but I have to get calories SOMEWHERE, and fruit is just not going to do it. Your advice about having it with other things is sound, and I usually do try to "cut" the sugar by having it with blander things; I was trying to have fruit separately at all times, since I have heard a lot that it is better to eat fruit alone. So much for that. I have also heard about the hybridizing issue, which makes sense.
I will check out your links. And some good news after touching base with my nutritionist friend: I managed to put on a pound!
Thank you again Phil, and I wish you the best in all your riceyness. ;-)
