Vanita,
Here are a couple of links to the program outlines.
http://www.fatfree.com/diets/mcdougall.html
http://www.drmcdougall.com/misc/2006nl/ ... 0marys.pdf
To summarize:
Regular Plan: No meat, diary, oil/fat of any kind
MWL: Also no flour products, soy foods like tofu, avocado, coconut, nuts/seeds, fruit juice, dried fruit
Mary’s Mini: Generally limited to one starch eaten at every meal. If you choose grain/rice you can add a little fruit and veggies – but you could just eat sweet potatoes and nothing else. This is more of a diet then a lifetime eating plan.
If you look in the food forum you’ll see two sticky posts with recipes from the McDougall newsletter that I’ve divided into MWL and Non-MWL. http://www.drmcdougall.com/forums/viewforum.php?f=5 This should also help you to see the different choices available to you.
I also have blog that has only MWL recipes on it. http://mwlfood.wordpress.com/
===========================
Good morning all. I’m down another 1.6 pounds this week. On plan and planning to stay that way. I’m off to change my ticker.
