I was introduced to NT earlier this year, and my husband just got it for my birthday a few weeks ago and I'm so excited about making some significant changes in our eating habits. But one of my biggest curiosities has been what NT-ers BUY on a weekly basis--I know it can be pricey, but I'm getting the impression that I can make a week's worth of food go a long, long way. Anyway, all this to say, I'm so glad I discovered your blog months ago, and I'm thankful to have your "guidance" in this new direction I'm taking my family. :) Stephanie, I'm so excited to have discovered this series on your blog!

Wouldn't it be better to have her eat the actual fruit (with the fiber intact) and drink water? We are just starting with the NT style of cooking / eating, but I've never really done much juice (mostly because of the expense). Once in a blue moon, I'll get some apple juice (when someone has been ill and is craving it) or orange juice (again, when someone has been craving it - I figure it's the body's way of telling us we need a boost of extra vitamin C). As we are eating better, I'm finding those cravings are coming MUCH less frequently. I found it interesting to read in NT that drinking a lot of juice is associated with higher rates of diabetes. Since my dad is a type II diabetic, it really gave me food for thought. Janie -

My problem is the guilt associated with the old diet while trying to switch over to healthier eating. It takes a lot of planning for me, and when I haven't planned in advance, ie. pulled meat out of the freezer, I don't know what to serve. I ended up getting some chicken strips because we'd already had pizza and burritos this week. I also wish that I had some women who would come along side me and teach me what they know! Until then, I'll get out my menu sheet that I know so well, and plan and prepare so tomorrow will be a better day. Thanks again. Thank you for this information.

I have many questions but can't fit them all on here. What kind/brand of flour do you buy? How do I substitute wheat flour in recipes calling for white flour? What organic milk do you buy? Does it taste different? We use good ole' 1%Hood milk(don't know if they have that in Canada).Organic milk very expensive for a half gallone here and we are HUGE milk drinkers!Also,I've read you buy a whole chicken. I usually buy chicken breasts(purdue).Do you have reccomendations for already cut chicken breasts in the poultry isle? Anyway, I'll just wait to see if you answer my other questions in your post :o) I'm trying to subsitute what I already have/do for healthier alternatives.To the dismay of my husband and 2 year old daughter!!!
