> What are some examples about refined wheat foods? If cereal for example says it is "whole grain" then does that mean it isn't refined?
I'm fairly strict about it. I look at the carbs also--so it's oatmeal and Special K, although I think some would allow others like cherios and no sugar added cereals.
As to who can live without pasta, it's amazing that I just don't crave it--a ton of cravings disappear when you eliminate some of these foods. Sometimes I'll take a bite of someone elses. Potatoes are hard for a lot of people to give up--I have fauxtatoes (made from califlower and, to me, taste better). But then I never was a potatoe fan. Bread, cookies and pasta were my downfalls. You might think about the zone, which is less restrictive.
