I was drawn to this book for a couple of reasons. The first is that I, too, have thyroid problems and had gained weight. The old ways of losing no longer worked which was dismaying.The second reason is the food. I'm a vegetarian and I was looking for simple recipes. Being nutritious and healthy is important, but I'm not willing to spend long hours in the kitchen. Been there, done that.And the book delivers. The recipes are focused on breakfast, which is when I'm hungriest and I started with her very first recipe: Coconut and Chocolate Oats. Anything with coconut has to be good!I love the Pumpkin and Oatmeal Pancakes, although I use stevia, instead of Splenda, the Feta & Spinach Omelet, although I used mozzarella since I don't like feta and the Egg in the Hole is just plain fun. My next experiment will be the giant oatmeal cookies. Imagine that - cookies for breakfast.
