Lose It For Ever – Dave Elger

Eat to Live is a plant-based diet- the bottom line is we are getting way to many calories from oil, meat products, and processed foods. 

Author Dr. Furman lays it out plain and simple.  Eat your fruit and vegetables!   (drfuhrman.com)

His Intense Six Week Eat to Live Plan:

•       1 pound of  raw vegetables daily!
•       1 pound of cooked green vegetables daily!
•       4 fruits daily
•       1 cup beans, legumes, or sprouts daily
•       eggplant, mushrooms, onions, and other non-starchy veggies

     (Not more than one serving):

• cooked starchy vegetables OR whole grains–Maximum 1 cup per day (butternut or acorn squash, corn, sweet potato, brown rice, cooked carrots, whole grain breads*, whole grain cereals)
• raw nuts and seeds (1 oz. or 28.5 grams a day) or 2 ounces avocado
• ground flaxseed (1 tablespoon a day)
• soymilk, low-sugar preferred–Maximum 1 cup a day -avoid breads and cereals as much as possible

OFF-LIMITS:

• dairy products
• animal products
• between meal snacks
• fruit juice, dried fruits  
• salt, sugar

NUTS and RAW SEEDS, are optional for obese or overweight persons while they follow this weight loss plan.  People who have difficulty losing weight may also eliminate the starchy vegetable/grain.

Since reading Eat to Live, I’ve cut back on cooking with oil, bought some ground flaxseed, added more servings of vegetables, and making more of an effort to eat fruit.  I’m going to continue with my weekly lean steak, periodic chicken, and other meat in some of the Korean food I eat for lunch.
