Hi Michelle,
Good question, I googled fit for life as I hadn't heard of it, I don't know that this would work for everyone as everyone has a different make up, too much
water can create an electrolyte imbalance, also with training you need protien in your diet - meat has protien and iron, I don't believe that we can digest wheat properly as the gluten content (protien of wheat) is very high, I try and use spelt (much lower gluten content) and better for digestion - I am very interested in the "eat right for your type diet" some info here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_type_diet I haven't fully studied this however it seems to make a sense to me, there are so many people who lose it then gain it. It worries me that you are hungry at the end of the day - its not supposed to be that way, and I believe that we all need to "listen" to our bodies. I go with everything in moderation. I take In-liven which is a probiotic, check this link for info
http://www.mionegroup.com/en/product/15101 I am currently working through a diploma in reflexology, I then intend to study nutrition as this is something that really interests me. Hope this helps. Let me know if I can help any further.
Cheers
Caz

Thanks Caz, sorry I hadn't spotted your reply earlier. Thank you for your response, makes sense. I've now stopped the Fit for Life eating plan - it wasn't working for me as it did years ago. The hunger thing was probably because I didn't put enough effort into cooking the "right" snack foods and was not eating enough and I just couldn't sustain the training feeling like that and knew I had to change what I was eating. Sports nutrition and weight loss is very confusing and theories changing all the time. i have heard of the blood type diet and interestingly, the gyno I chose when I had my second child was a chinese herbalist and he used to coach me what foods were right for me - and I found out they match this eating plan. For me he says don't eat cold, chilled foods for example. What a shock, when I love crunchy, crispy cold salads etc so I ignored his advice! Ha Ha. I'll look at your links etc though and yes, I'm starting to better understand the role of protein and am looking at that too. Thanks for taking an interest. Shel
