I knew GB would have some great wisdom for you! I agree with everything she said, too.

I know that, for me, changing my mentality about my diet has helped me to look at my overall health differently. The gradual change that GB is talking about is a healthier approach to changing anything in one's diet. For example, years ago when I switched from white flour to wheat flour, I did it gradually. I made bread with mostly white flour, then added wheat flour bit by bit until I was eating whole wheat bread all the time. It's the same with most of our dietary changes. A good nutritionist or dietitian will tell you to change one thing at a time, improving your health on a long-term, permanent basis. You are much more likely to continue a pattern that you start slowly.

Good luck!
