1. How many of you preferred to eat chicken based meals over beef to try to maintain healthy weight before diagnosis? Meaning at McDonalds did you go for the chicken sandwich over the burger? (usually take the salad) At restraunts did you eat a chicken salad over a big steak?
I ate chicken, pork (about equal amounts) and fish approx once a week. Some beef. Food preferences were heavily influenced by price.
2. How many of you loved cheese and milk based foods? I consumed reasonable portions of dairy. Daily consumption: milk(approx 1 cup), yogurt (approx 1/2 c) and cheese. I eat about 2 L ice cream a month...BAD Girl!
3. How many were vegetarians? vegans? N/A. I consume however a LARGE variety of fresh veg daily. Typical intake @ day = 10 to 15 different veg and grains. Also large variety of fruit. Never eat canned. Rarely, rarely buy frozen. Seldom drink fruit juice. Never drink pop, tea or coffee.
4. How many only consumed organic foods before diagnosis? Never.
