That being said, I would LOOOVE to have this book so I can get more ideas and advice on cooking and shopping in a smart healty way. And I believe Hungry Girl could do that for me! - 10/16/2011 8:21:07 PM
We do what works for us as individuals. And sparkpeople helps to support all individuals with all of their choices...vegan, vegetarian, whole foods and the majority of us who don't have that luxury (availability or $$) or desire.
There's some advice about avoiding negative people in your life to reduce stress and help you with your journey. People coming out here just to complain or berate the product is negative. If you really wanted to help your fellow sparkers, maybe next time you should try to get your point across in a more positive fashion. Something along the lines of...if you want to make these recipes even healthier, choose organic ingredients such as...(fill in the blank here with your favorite organic product). - 10/13/2011 2:22:56 PM
I applaud those of you who live organic, vegan, omit all processed foods, etc for health and/or environmental reasons, but for myself it's all about moderation. I'll never completely give up processed food or even fast food, and I appreciate many different ways to make changes here and there toward being healthier. I'm glad SparkPeople recognizes this and gives us support for whatever our particular lifestyle is. :-) - 10/12/2011 12:16:48 PM
yummy - 10/10/2011 12:26:38 PM
A lot of Sparkers are busy people and might not have the time (or the cooking skills!) to make everything from scratch. Others of us might miss having those so good but so-bad-for-you foods, and I see how this book could be a great tool to help us transition into our new healthier mindsets. Processed foods and all, it's got to be better than a fast food meltdown! - 10/10/2011 12:05:27 AM
She may not be all about 'Natural' and 'Clean' foods but for people (and their families) that have never been successful at cutting calories, her ideas are a great place to start.
We should all try to remember everyone is at a different place along this dietary journey. - 10/9/2011 5:04:32 PM
I won't waste my money on buying her cookbooks, there are too many healthy recipes around. - 10/9/2011 2:34:38 PM
And I know it sounds crazy, but pizza with hot giardiniera is the BEST!!! - 10/8/2011 8:49:28 PM
