I think that to restrict your diet, as this diet calls for, really requires a change in the way you think about food. And if you have lived with an ED or with food allergies or other reasons why you've already had to think about food in that way, it makes it easier.
I did grow up with "allergies" (really, just undiagnosed IBS) so I already kind of had that mindset, but I know that I do think about food differently now. I mean, planning meals in advance and staying away from certain foods (ALL the time, not just most of the time), is not what most people do. Even THINKING about everything I eat, I do that so much more than before.
I have such a different outlook on food than most people, I think, and necessarily. But you're probably right Elizabeth, that outlook probably mirrors the way an ED makes you think about food in a lot of ways too... Not to say that this diet is going to give people an ED or anything like that! You just have ot start really THINKING about everything you put in your mouth or else you're going to feel sick all the time.
Very interesting indeed
