I didn't learn a lot about the diet from my friend - one, she was traveling alot at the time, and two, it didn't really interest me as I had found my own way by then. But I seem to remember her making a big pot of beans just about every day; now THAT would keep me full, but also probably give stomach aches. Also, LC is called "restrictive" by some, but my friend had to eat certain things at certain times, so going out to eat was a major problem. Kind of MY definition of restrictive.
I say this all in the past tense, but I think she is still doing it. Has been out of state for the last several months, so I haven't actually talked with her in quite a while
