Hi everyone! Thank you so much for the great welcome. It's such a relief not feeling alone. I have 2 questions. I just bought the book and I'm very excited to get crackin', but I'm concerned about all the white bread/rice thiings. It's been drilled into me to avoid these foods. Could this type of diet cause weight gain?
The other question is about symptoms. Over the past few days I've managed to get my constipation under control, but find that the bloating is still quite severe, if not worse. Could this be the insoluble fiber I've been eating? What is the bloating a result of?
I tried finding some posts about this, but perhaps I'm using the wrong keywords.
Thanks for any help!
