Oh I know Brad, just reminded me of how helpul it was because I was vulnerable and wanted to do everything right for my baby but a the same time I realized that eating ''normally'' as opposed to ''dieting'' made me feel so much better! Also because it's easier on our social life just like ESE is. And now I have even more perspective...I don't know how I would do it with 2 kids if I were to follow a specific plan... :) ”Brad Pilon says:March 19, 2010 at 7:14 pm

First I click the link in Brad's email and I listen to Alex from High Gravity Male Podcast. Phew! GREAT stuff. (I agree with his analysis of what men and women said they wanted. I have a slight tweak in my version.) Anyhow.... Then I clicked this blog entry and it rained on that earlier parade. Harsh reality of how unsatisfying a nearly 3,000 calorie diet can be!! Having been on a phone consultation with a nutrition specialist at time or two, I laughed like hell when a very popular podcast personality, Adam Carolla, took on this heavily debated topic in one of his many hilarious podcasts. He was interviewing that guy who wrote Eat This, Not That and they were going over why the advice from these specialists is so crazy. I'm not sure if Adam titles his podcasts carefully enough to find it easily, but it is on iTunes. It's worth a listen and had me in my car laughing so hard I could barely drive. Incidentally, I was told to take that cheese off my omelet and replace it with yummy raw brocolli. Oh, and replace my fruit/cottage cheese lunch that I loved dearly with a handful of raw nuts. No thank you. I discovered ESE and went on living my life like a normal person. Thanks Brad, for both the giggles and the tears. What a ride.

And that is just one meal and I only have 650 cals left of the 2,000. Maybe that is why the whole "clean" eating thing is prevelent as I could eat 6 meals of this stock body building diet and still be under 2,000 cals: Dinner: 300 Calories Chicken breast (2 meats) Sweet Potato (2 grains) Broccoli I guess I could have the McDonald's and have the above dinner twice also. By the way, I would have to put some kind of sauce or seasoning on that chicken breast and sweet potato to get it down. With ESE I don't have to eat bland food, but I wonder, is it better to focus on 1 day's worth of calories or the whole week put together?

I guess I could have the McDonald’s and have the above dinner twice also.

By the way, I would have to put some kind of sauce or seasoning on that chicken breast and sweet potato to get it down.

With ESE I don’t have to eat bland food, but I wonder, is it better to focus on 1 day’s worth of calories or the whole week put together?

If you are short - paleo/low carb is the way to go. ESE doesn't hurt either. now try eating all that at 5’4″, when you have tiny bones and your ideal weight is under 120. ha ha ha ha ha
