has anyone read this? i am only on page 65 and i am severly disturbed. so far i cant have sugar, milk, meat, or sweets! i think i just have to keep reading to see how much this is going to scare me. not sure what to make of this...

Re: skinny ***bun in the oven??

I had read the original and found it to be too strict...my friend sent me the pg version and I didnt even read it because I knew I would be freaked out and not follow it anyway.

Its bad enough the guilt I feel have splenda in my tea every day- I dont need to fee like my meat and non-organic produce is harming my little one

Never heard of this!! There is no way I'm going to read it though. It sounds like it will make me freak out.

Re: skinny ***bun in the oven??

i was dying to read this, but my friends would not allow me to buy it in the bookstore lol and after speaking to alot of them at length, i realized i just have way too many food issues to read it..i want whats best for my baby, i dont want to turn pregnancy into a crazy eating disorder for myself, and i feel like...FOR ME..(just want to clarify that) this book would mess with my head alil too much

Re: skinny ***bun in the oven??

I read it-- I also read the original book. I think you have to take it with a grain of salt... I am already a vegetarian and I get overwhelmed thinking about all of the changes that the book tells you to make. I try to be organic vegan at home-- but, when I go out-- there is no way I can adhere to that kind of diet.

I think it's very eye opening in the sense that it teaches you what you should be looking for, the importance of reading labels-- and how important it is to look for and find the best products for you and your baby.

The thing I take away the most from the book is don't trust big companies!! They put lots of shite in our food/products-- and it's important to be aware of this so you can make the best decisions.

Re: skinny ***bun in the oven??

I have definite food issues, and I know ppl around me were frightened at how I was going to be while PG....I heard about this book, and knew all too well that it would mess with my head more, so I didn't get it...I am a huge watcher of what I eat, and have let myself be indulgent a few times being pregnant, I think a book like that goes majorly overboard...Everything in moderation, when Pregnant and when Not is key!!!
