My 12 year old daughter has had some weight gain in her stomach and above hip/lower back area over the last couple of years. I had hoped it was hormonal and/or a "phase" but it has not subsided. She is now becoming very insecure about it and is begging me to help her loose weight. Is there a modified version of the SCD th...

Just curious has anyone given in to their cravings for things during the week and had an occasional cookie or sweet or whatever here or there? If so has it effected your fat loss?

Being able to put gravy over the beans especially red and pinto beans would really spice things up for me. Hell think how easy it would be -- just stir fry some hamburger and mix in a bunch of beans. Pour gravy over it. Has anyone seen gravy mixes that are SCD compliant? I've got a box of gravy mix packets from when ...

What is the best way to identify what it is you're doing to prevent fat loss on the slow carb diet? I feel like it must be right under my nose. I have been at it almost 2 weeks with very minimal results on the scale and my measurements are exactly the same. I've reread the diet chapters in the book about 5 times because peop...

I'm a big believer in the 'pro greens' movement you know those dark green 'Superfood' supplements that are popping up everywhere. Why? Not because I think it's healthy but because it lets me trick myself into believing I don't have to eat vegetables anymore! A glass a day keeps the broccoli away! Just kidding but serio...

Its a bean right? I love to drag raw broccoli florets through the stuff and it seems hummus would be a better choice than salad dressing. What makes garbanzos less than any other bean?

I've been following the slow carb diet for 2 weeks now and I start to feel sick every time I have to eat.

Does roasting SCD friendly vegetables in the oven cause them to be more likely to spike insulin levels? I have done this twice and realize they taste too amazing it doesn't seem right. A little bit of olive oil drizzled on top and stirred a few times for 40 minutes.... they are too good to be true in my mind. Does it bri...

Just starting the SCD and having a bit of trouble getting down the veggies. Years of bad diet have conditioned me to really hate eating them. I like V8 with a dash of Tabasco though. Would that count as my vegetable or is there some other easy way to drink the veggies?
