Answer 1

Any diet that eliminates many foods will work, as long as you can stick with it. It's great that you want to eat better for yourself and your child. It may be easier said than done, but just eat everything in moderation. Don't go overboard on the sweets, but don't cut them out altogether, either. It is totally unnatural and impossible to keep a child from eating a little sugar now and then, nor will a little hurt them. As long as you eat plenty of fresh veggies, whole grains, lean meats, etc. you'll be fine. :)

The best diet in the world is as follows and I am so glad you are thinking about your baby's diet. We actually feed our children so poorly in the US it is depressing. USA children have the beginning of hardening of the arteries by the age of 12 years. And asthma is at an all time high and diabetes is growing at an alarming rate.

BLESS YOU. What follows is an impossible diet, but as close as you can get is better than nothing.

· It is important to maintain a good diet so you don't compromise your health. Some diet damage cannot be fixed.
·
· When you deprive your brain,(your brain craves sugar) the brain will take other body cells to convert to the elements that it needs. And the cells it takes are BRAIN cells. OOPS. I don't want to lose brain cells to have thin legs. But I would like to have both.

DECIDE TO MAKE A LIFE CHANGE TO A HEALTHY LIFE STYLE.

1) fruits and veggies, all you want, organic, raw, vine-ripe if possible. Steamed is OK, sautéed is OK even canned or frozen is OK, but lots of them.
2) limited or no meat.
3) nothing fried
4) no FAST FOOD- is junk, no nutrition, empty calories
5) NO PROCESSED FOOD. if you can't pronounce it don't eat it.
6) nothing white, salt, sugar, mayo, milk, (or at least in moderation.
7) NO DAIRY-dairy is great for baby cows, your body does not even digest it properly. check out www.notmilk.com
8) EXERCISE- and be sure to refresh your body with water and fresh fruit
9) NO PROTEIN SUPPLEMENTS. Muscle is made from water, replace the water. You get enough protein from the food you eat, You get more protein from spinach than the supplements you take and your body does not get toxic on food protein the way it will with supplements. Supplements can really tax you liver.
10) Good supplement would be Omega 3, and Juice Plus+
http://www.juiceplus.com/nsa/pages/Home.... JP+ website has lots of nutritional information and the capsules can be opened to add to infant foods.
11) NO CARBONATED DRINKS, or at least limited. They actually dissolve the calcium in your bones.
12) Calories in calories out.
13) sugars will shut down the immune system for hours, one soda and 1 cookie will shut down the immune system for up to 6 hours.

AND DON'T GO NUTS, MODERATION.

PLEASE READ! I'M SURE IT WILL HELP.
One thing most dieters forget is that EVERYTHING you eat, whether it's protein, sweets, whatever is eventually converted to sugar, and then to fat. Never try to eliminate starch or sugar and eat only protein. You'd be wasting your time. Try this:
Eat very high fiber and high cellulose meals. Your body cant digest cellulose or fiber so you'd be eating heavy, empty "junk", and so your body would make up for your reduced sugars by slowly burning your fat. You wont feel hungry, so you can also do work outs cuz your stomach will be full of the empty junk, tricking your brain to believe that you're so full of nutrients. Foods like this are mainly thick greens like cucumbers and celery; and high fiber food like pasta and most whole wheat bread. You would be loosing weight in no time. Remember that the process is gradual. Don't completely bust sugar, but refrain from high calorie foods like fizzy drinks, "energy" drinks (most of them just make you crash, plus they're very high and sugar and caffeine) and candy (including chocolates, eclairs, icecream, you know the endless list). Don't count calories: you'd only be wasting your time and I dont think weight loss is something to get nervous about. Besides, you can never be accurate. Those nutritional tables don't speak gospel truth.
Do the same thing to maintain your baby's weight, but don't completely put her off candy and sweets. Kids luve their sweets, and besides when she becomes a toddler, she'll lose more body fat during play than you can during a diet, so relax. Just give her adequate amounts of all the major food classes.
Have fun losing weight, and don't push it. You don't want to know what anorexia will do to you.

Refined sugar is very bad for you, and I read that 1 teaspoon switches off your immune system for three hours.

However, there are plenty of natural sugars in fruit and vegetables. Search the web for information about the Glycemic index. That gives you an idea of how rapidly carbohydrates are digested. For instance, some foods are high in carbohydrates which are totally indigestible (fiber), which means that they only contain a little of the digestible carbs.

Refined sugar was invented quite recently, and is responsible for much ill health. Sugar from sugar beets for instance is bad from you, but eating sugar beet is good for you. It is the refining that does the harm.

If you really want extra sweetening, get stevia powder. This is a South American herb that is about five times as sweet as sugar. I just bought a kilo (2.2 lbs) in Australia a few days ago. That will last me for a very long time, because I use about a quarter of a teaspoonful each day. Don't get steviocide, because it is about a thousand times as sweet as sugar, and how will you measure one thousandth of a teaspoonful for your coffee?
