I've been on the NSD for four days now. I had attempted the NSD last month but cheated from time to time but since Monday I have been completely starch free. My diet has been vegetables (lettuce, carrots, broccoli, cuccumbers), fruit (blueberries, cherries, grapes, pineapple, dates, raisins), eggs, and meat (steak, hamburger, chicken, canned tuna in olive oil). I drink green tea with honey and orange and grape juice. I have completely cut out all breads and pastas of any form, all dairy products, sodas, and sugars, and caffeine. I even cut out the fringe foods like almonds, stoneyfield yogurt, cheese, and fruits like apples, bananas and tomatoes. Does this list look okay?
Thus far I haven't noticed any difference. I understand it can take awhile although I was hoping to see quick results since I am going completely starch free. I am hoping for the better but for some reason I have this nagging feeling that it won't work. I mean if this diet is so succesful why haven't any of my doctors ever mentioned it? You would think that they would at least suggest it?
