Starchy Foods May Boost Reccurence

Hey cowgal, there's so much info about the causes and prevention of recurrence, I can't keep up with it all, but I do like the part that says: "In a second study involving diet and breast cancer, researchers found that following a low-carbohydrate diet just two days a week produced more significant weight loss than a standard low-calorie diet followed daily. People following the intermittent diet for four months lost an average of 9 pounds while the other dieters lost an average of 5 pounds, the British researchers found". My DH and I are going to give that a try for the weight loss factor. Thx.

I've been using the South Beach Diet for a number of years - go on it for a month or so and then off a little bit and not only do you lose weight, you feel much better - some people can metabolize carbs - I cannot - they bloat me and make me sluggish BUT I do love my bread and pasta so now and again I treat myself but pretty much have trained myself what is a high glycemic food and what is not and just try to pass up high carb foods - of course this isn't the week to boast about my food choices LOL.
