Thinking back to when you first started your 100 day journey, did you experience any withdrawals, stomach discomfort, other issues in the first couple of weeks? I started May 1, 2023. I don’t feel hungry, a little bloated, but pleased that I am comfortable with this challenge. Any tips are greatly appreciated.

Hello
I have all 3 of your cookbooks and they are my go to for ideas….there’s a salad with a lemon poppyseed vinaigrette dressing (Real food on a budget) that I would love to replicate. I think it’s spinach, apple, pecans and Parmesan flakes; it looks amazing.
Thankyou so very much for your fantastic recipes they are super simple and taste delicious
My only complaint is that I look at you books so often that the binding is breaking. I guess that should be compliment

In reply to Laurie. Hi, I would reach out to a source that is specific to gluten-free products to make sure you're getting the best option. - Nicole

Hello! I just read your first book and was wondering if I can substitute gluten free flour for whole wheat flour for my daughter who has celiac disease or is there something “cleaner” that I should use. Thank you!

In reply to Donna Brooks.

Lisa focuses on eating real, whole foods, so nutritional yeast isn’t something that you would typically find in her pantry. With that being said, doesn’t mean that it is either good or bad based on your dietary restrictions. If you were to look at it based on her “real food rules” it would go against them based on the ingredient lists not containing ingredients that you would normally cook with or have in your kitchen. I would recommend checking out both a vegan blogger or consulting a health care professional to see if it is right for you. – Nicole

I’ve been looking at vegan diets and they use nutritional yeast a lot. Do you recommend using nutritional yeast?

My husband and I are new to eating non-processed foods. We are excited about it, however, I’m personally doing this to eat healthy AND to lose weight. Do you have any insight on how eating this way helps people to lose weight? Is there a need to count calories, fat, carbs, etc? Are there foods that I should stay away from even though they are not processed in order to lose weight?

In reply to Stephanie. Hi. I often replace at least part of the oil with applesauce.

In reply to Amy Taylor (comment moderator). Yes, I did not have the effects from it that I experience from wheat.
