Hello everyone,
Through lots of 'communities'(Paleo,180DegreesHealth) I began to research the work and dietary guidelines of Mr.Peat some more. He has some very interesting nutritional guidelines. I'm pondering on trying it, as I struggle with lots of hormonal imbalances,mood disorders,crappy digestion/yeast/funghi/parasites/leaky gut? ,'food issues' , energy disorders,'fear of getting too fat again',exercise disorders etc.
I've noticed his diet is heavy on fruit and drinking milk,which I both for various reasons can't do. (I actually don't really like drinking my calories/meals......and fruit/high fructose causes problems for me...and yes I know about his writings regarding fructose,but my problems are related on another level.Though I'm still on the fence regarding banana,when not too ripened,and Manuka Honey.....and I've never had Plantain before.)
He does however talk about root veggies,but not sure what are all considered safe root veggies (carrots,beets,pumpkin?....when I ate these in the past I somehow instinctively always felt the need to eat them with (leafy) greens,which I know Peat is not a fan of.Maybe bc of unstable blood sugar,fiber content,diabetes-like symptoms,not causing overeating?I have no clue)
So here's my question: I have no idea/inspirartion as to what to eat for meals,especially with my restrictions, can you maybe offer some insights as to what you guys eat on an average day? and what your activity level is?
(I like the idea of working out for homemade healthy foods,which I also have kind of a distorted past with...5to6days of 1hour high cardio yet couldnt lose my belly back then and I feel like I'm never doing enough and feeling very anxious about it especially as I'm what's considered probably underweight and currently am trapped in a very destructive not normal eatingpattern of keeping on moving/going to the gym then to a buffetrestaurant where I actually always eat the same and day after not hungry/eat the entire day and repeating the same cycle....this has various reasons*,but I have no clue anymore what to do as was only able to afford joining a cheap basic gym.So,basic advice on that is appreciated too.)
*Reasons: bc I experience for some reason such weird emotional/anxiety/not wanting to be at home,became scared/entangled by all Paleo-talk regarding:sitting too much/watching tv,too much carbs,too much fat,IFing/'normal' mealfrequency/still my own food-weight&exercise issues....and also bc I actually never liked to cook,in my 'naive food-High cardio-days I lived off breadmeals,pre-made meal salads,pasta,pizza,dining out basically stuff which didn't ask much preparation mostly just shoving in the microwave or putting some HFCS-saladdressing on top and some cheese sprinkling.....
Are there also people who experienced 'food intolerances' vanishing,eating this way? (bc I'd love to eat tomato,peppers,onions,garlic regularly again......this is part of my 'food issues'problem,that I feel I can never trust myself regarding foods I like very much/give me a blissful feeling/cause me to eat/want more of it....as they all turned out to be heavy food intolerances in a test I did way back ago.)
My story is very complicated and I'd love to post it,so you guys get some more insight in al my 'issues' and maybe can give better advice,but it's quite long and I don't like the fact that it can be seen by everyone online.I'd actually would love to work with The Rubins regarding nutrition&exercise&emotional stuff or even do the Metabolic Blueprint program but it's waaaayyyy out of my league financially,unfortunately:'(
