In fact I should have stopped with the Omnivore's Dilemma. I just felt that the second book was a lot of the same stuff, without the detail. However, it was one of my all time favorite books!

I know one of the rules is that you can eat all the junk food and sweets you want--IF you make them yourself. You don't have to give up sweets, just crummy sweets. Baking will set you free.

I think his advice is very sound. I agree that the only way to eat properly is to shop and cook for yourself. I also won't eat anything my grandmother wouldn't recognize (not sure if this is Michael Pollan's advice or someone else). I am going to try to find this book at the library!

I give this to my clients all the time. Here's how it started: I had a friend who said that when she goes to mall and sees a pair of shoes, jeans, etc...and she can't stop thinking about them for 3 days...she just goes back and buys them! I apply the same theory to food! If I start craving a food (let's go with donuts) and I can't stop thinking about it for 3 days...I go get it, and LOVE EVERY SINGLE MINUTE!!

I also try to stop eating a little before full, but definitely struggle with this one! I can't wait to check out Pollan's new book. From what I've seen already, alot of the rules are really catchy and memorable, instead of bland and boring.
