So, I finally got my book in the mail and I have skimmed it just a bit before settling in to devour it....

I thought we were supposed to eat 1 oz of chocolate a day, but it's only supposed to be 1/2 oz??

I have another question....

I have a lot of food sensitivities including dairy...primarily milk. It upsets my stomach.

I use soy milk in lieu of dairy and now I am not sure what to use. I've tried rice and almond milk and I don't care much for the taste.

Does anyone have any ideas?

A half ounce is fine. Although an ounce won't hurt. Up to you.

Can you digest kefir?

I've never tried Kefir. I'll have to look into that.

I decided to try regular milk this morning and have had no adverse effects so far. My biggest allergy that was recently discovered (about a month ago) was wheat and when I took that out I also discovered that some other foods that I was supposedly "allergic" to, I really was'nt.


Since I had no reaction this morning, I think I am going to slowly introduce milk back into my diet, get rid of the soy and will see how it goes...

The good news about all of my food issues over the years is that I was already basically following the diet because I had no other options, I feel like I am "fine-tuning" myself.

What do you consider a "good quality" dark chocolate? Do you mean the percentage of cocoa? I know that there are popular dark chocolates like Dove and Hershery "Bliss". Are Chocolates like these satisfactory or something with a higher percentage? Thanks!

Dove Dark is fine. I personally like a 70% chocolate, like Lindt, although I know that is too strong for some women.

Let me know how it goes with the milk.

I love the Lindt 85%! I'm a hardcore chocolate-lover!

I love the 85% Lindt bar, too. It's my new favorite!

My favs are Ghiradelli and Godiva.
