Hi Amanda,
Thanks! I am really excited and hope this really helps me, and then can help other people too!!

I basically had a "no red meat" AT ALL rule in my diet. Once in a while I would "cheat" and eat small amounts of red meat, like trying from my boyfriend's plate or something and a couple of times I made a big mistake by eating at McDonalds.
Other than that, though, I NEVER ate pork or lamb or anything.
I have had it a few times since she said to try, and haven't had any problems with my stomach. I have, however, been getting a really bizarre reaction that is either a fairly severe allergic reaction or a weird reflux reaction that I am starting to think may have been because of the ground beef I had on a couple of occasions. That may be a total individual thing for me, though. Like I said, no tummy troubles.

If you are worried about your iron intake (and other vitamin and minerals, that I had no idea about really!), I think seeing a dietician/nutritionist might help 'cause I am totally clueless and feel like maybe I would have ended up in trouble when I get older if I didn't try to fix it now!

Cheers!
