Abby and everybody else,

You HAVE to get more variety in your diet for the sake of your long-term health. I repeat, YOU HAVE TO get more variety in your diet. I understand your fears, but as a friend of mine says, "Face the fear and do it anyway."

I would strongly suggest that each of you pick one new food to add to your diet this week, and just eat one serving of it. Then watch how you feel. And I'm not talking something extreme like a hot fudge sundae or a steak and french fried onion rings, I'm talking a new veggie, like sweet potato or peas, or one of Heather's sweet breads for breakfast instead of toast, or a soy milk and banana smoothie instead of just a banana.

Then next week eat that food again, plus another new one. Set yourselves goals and push yourselves through the fear and just do it. That's not cheating, that's eating a healthy well rounded diet.

Okay? And I want to see you post about what you've tried, so that others can try them too.

Yes, I have a bite of chocolate cake, but I also have broccoli. Yes, I have a little cheese but I also have whole wheat toast. C'mon ladies, you can do it!! I've been stable for a year, and I eat much more variety than any of you have described.

If you have any specific questions about how to eat something safely just ask. But don't let fear rule your life. Have FAITH, Heather's diet works. You don't have to eat the same five foods everyday. Trust me. Okay?
