Eat Your Vegetables

January 30, 2008 on 8:16 am | In Diet, Health, Low Carb Foods |

I am curious as to whether anyone has published any succinct advice for people who are transitioning from the Kimkins WOE to something better. I know that Jimmy Moore repeatedly welcomed all comers to his free forum and I suspect that there is a lot of detailed discussing about tweaking diets there.

I am not a dietitian or even an experienced dieter. The best advice I can offer is that vegetables are our friends. About.com has a convenient list of vegetables in listed in order of carb count. I know that it is the middle of the winter in the northern hemisphere now, so price and quality aren’t optimal for some of the better vegetables. I would suggest that you take a relatively long ‘wish list’ to the grocery store and take home what is of good quality and a reasonable price.

  1. Good advice! And remember to have a little fat with those veggies!

  2. Actually, the people who join my “Livin’ La Vida Low-Carb Discussion” forum from the Kimkins scam are given a complete thread called “Transitioning From Kimkins” where they are encouraged to eat more fat and incorporate non-starchy veggies into their diet.

    It’s an essential part of the low-carb lifestyle and so difficult to de-program the lies they’ve been fed by Heidi Diaz. We’re slowly helping heal those who have been harmed by this shyster and always keep the door open for others who are ready to get out.

  4. Butter is right. As well as coconut oil and other great fats like nut butters, even my good friend REAL lard.

    But back to veggies. Farmers markets can be your best friend, even in the dead of winter. Just pick and choose what happens to be in season. As a last resort, you can always hit the frozen aisles of the grocery store. Just bypass all the ones with added sauces. They are the next best thing to fresh. But stay away from the canned veggies.
