**I don't seem to be able to 'log out' of Blogger - I keep getting an error message and so stay logged in...anyone else having issues? **
Watching a new episode of 'Supersize vs Superskinny' last night (Lifestyle You Channel) - wow - I can still SO relate to the anorexic mindset.....I just don't have the body to match it.
Some of the things they were saying had me thinking crikeys, I have always been like that...
I have never been a binge eater, food is mostly a fuel to me, although there a few things, like anyone, I just love the taste of so will over eat very occasionally - but they are usually healthy and it's not often at all
Clever Toni suggested the 'Eat right for your blood type' way of thinking - so I had a look at it and was amazed - 3 of the things on my list to definitely avoid were eggs, avocado and coffee - the very 3 things I have had trouble with over the years.
It also said 'O' blood types were more prone to THYROID issues *ahem* and STOMACH ULCERS.......really?
Just going by the chart and what I remember from looking at it I need to also cut back on dairy, and exclude from my diet - corn, cabbage, brussel sprouts (eeerk like I'd eat them anyway) and definitely beans.....
Bacon, ham, goose, pork - no good either.
Seafood - recommended except for:
barracuda, pickled herring, catfish, smoked salmon, caviar, octopus, conch - they're not exactly 'on the menu' here on a daily basis so should be fairly easy
All rather interesting.
Even if just from the health perspective and not making myself any worse.

I'm an O too. I LOOOOVE all those things I can't have. Boo Hoo.
Nat ~ Yeah, I used to LOVE coffee sooo much, and still feel like eating eggs even though they can make me feel really sick after....same with avocado.
I made some really healthy soup this week (and the two weeks before actually), it was all fine except it had cabbage in it - which can inhibit thyroid function, I didn't know that one!

you got me into looking and i found out that lots of things i love, chicken, bacon, tomatoes, corn, pumpkin are poison to me!!!
what website did you find your info on, i found a chart at http://www.scribd.com/doc/3614361/Eat-Right-For-Your-Blood-Type
but it didnt have info like you said re the thyroid etc. I am a B-
Good luck with it, I think i might try a diet using it as a guide for a month and see what happens :)
Jen ~ try this one there is a chart of what's no good etc

There was a 'ask a question free' section....I filled it out then chickened out as 'Free' is never 'Free' on the internet eh.....
Good info on there though,
I will be interested to hear how you went...
