everyone has their favorite diet/way of eating...how can I know which is the best one for me??
I never thought about it, I just ate (and cooked) like my mom.
Then the atkins crazy kicked in, and that was the THING.

Then the ornish diet.

Then weight watchers revamped their system.

Then the government revamped the pyramid.

Then I became crunchy and decided that vegan was the way to go.

Then the whole foods craze kicked in.

Then I joined GCM and discovered the plethora of actual choices...GAH!

Right now I'm interested in making changes for myself. And probably DH. He's diabetic, so it's a little chancier for him to make big changes. Plus he has gout, so too much meat is bad for him-it makes it flare up terrible.

Anyway.
I've liked the paleo versus primal thread; I'm a midwestern farm girl, so no meat seems sacrilegious to me. But grain-free just doesn't feel like the right thing, either.
