Re: Where can I buy heritage or heirloom tomato plants in Montreal, Canada? Can I order ahead of time?
I'm not from Canada so I'm not sure, but I can answer the ordering question. Most places will let you order ahead of time, but they won't send the items until planting time. This is to prevent pla...

Re: STARVING....Please help
what about the beans? My understanding is that getting sufficient carbs in the form of legumes is essential to this diet.
Any comments about Vodka? It's the only alcoholic drink I really enjoy. Usually on the rocks with lemon or lime. ("cheat day" is anot...

Re: Any other diabetics out there?
Hi! I'm also T2, non insulin dependent. Was using Byetta injections and Dr just insisted I add Amaryl just before I started SCD five weeks ago. By keeping close watch on my BG readings a-la Tim's...
beans, beans... differences?
our fearless leader states preference for lentils and black beans, but looking at the nutritional analyses, there's not much difference between the most common beans (with garbanzo beans/chick pea...

Re: The effects of cheating mid-week
Pretty much all you can do is test it out and see how your body reacts. I believe Tim said in his book most (young) guys can get away with a cheat meal during the week, some women can as well. F...

Re: My wife can't stomach the AGG stack first thing in the a.m.
You don't mention what the symptoms are (that would be helpful) and whether she experiences the problem before she eats breakfast or sometime after. If the problem occurs between the time she ta...
I agree with s joshua - BUT this might come under the general heading of Tim's directive: "If you don't know if it is on the diet, don't eat it."
I've been re-thinking this a little - when my current supply of protein mix is exhausted, I'm going to try and do without. I don't think Tim really...
