The Big C Diet

C as in crazy!

With recent news regarding my health in mind, Inna has seen fit to completely overhaul what I'm eating, taking her cue from what Patrick Quillin had to say in his "Beating Cancer with Nutrition" bestseller. I'm in week three of a 12 week program (12 because that will take me up to my next CT-Scan) and missing out on all those foods I enjoy the most :( Basically all processed and refined foods have been ditched with an emphasis placed on eating grains, vegetables, fruits and white meat. No more sweets (not even the occasional one), no more beer (or anything alcoholic) and no more coffee (or anything with caffeine). Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah! Of course, if ... at the end of the day we can report a measurable improvement in my condition, then this would have been a small sacrifice. What's interesting is that it's not too far off from the "Body for Life" eating paradigm I tried out a few years back.

Now, where's that celery stick?

No more coffee? I can't even conceive of it. (sipping from a french roast just brewed-Ahhhh)
