   If you have a garage or space.. buy gym equipment. Like a cheap stationary bike, some rings, just few things. Discipline required. Good to know what you eat in a day.. thanks for the personal insight on a mediterranean diet

   I’ve compiled scriptures to support and clarify some doctrines and posted them in the Discussion Section of this channel. Thank you and have a blessed day!

   The Lord bless thee, and keep thee:
   The Lord make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee:
   The Lord lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace.
   And they shall put my name upon the children of Israel, and I will bless them.

   Love it Blanche, I think this is a great coverage of it and brings out the best of different diets and like you said, it seems satisfying, wholesome, and sustainable. Like the biblical wisdom says, "everything in moderation" – its funny how we make it so complicated and drift away from what people for centuries have learned and enjoyed. Thanks for sharing your own process and approach, I love this type of content and to learn more of how to implement these healthy habits, diets, recipes, etc. into daily living. Hope you create more like this if you try new things or incorporate different things into your life that you think is an improvement. Keep up the great work!

    Hi! I’ve just read an article about it yesterday and I’m Italian so I think I can write about it. What I read in that article is the same my father told me about it.
    The real Mediterranean diet was born out of necessity. There was scarcity of food and people ate only tiny amounts of animal products and oil. It was hard work to get the food so people were really careful.
    My father is Sicilian and 94 years old now. He told me many times how people ate when he was a child and a young man.

    Usually, people ate meat only once a month and it was not the best meat. A tiny piece of cheese was shared by the family members every now and then. At that time people died because they didn’t have even enough bread. Now we live in a time of abundance.
    In the article the author points out the main mistakes people make when trying a Mediterranean diet:
    1) They eat too many calories and don’t exercise enough.
    2) Different frequency of consumption of the food and too large serving sizes: people eat animal products regularly and in large quantities. That was not the case in the past. Their availability varied according to the seasons and the servings were very small. 3) Use of refined and canned food instead of fresh food.
    Cheese was consumed in the winter for example. It was a way to preserve milk when the animals were producing less or more.
    The same is true for dry fruits. They were prepared so that people could have something to eat when there were no fruits and vegetables available.
    4) Too much pasta and bread. Pasta became a staple only a few centuries ago. Bread was essential to provide the main nutrition at every meal. Now people consume pasta and bread together during a meal. That was not done in the past.
    5) Too much oil and wine. They were both consumed in tiny quantities.
    When my father was a young boy, he even worked in an ice cream parlour. Real ice was carried on donkeys down the near mountains wrapped in straw. When it was possible, he ran home with one cone of ice cream to share with his family. They were five people and shared one ice cream!

    I think a lot of the problem are the portions. If I ate what my grandparents ate I’d be three times fatter than what I am because I live and work a more sedentary life. I’m really fat will you help make me skinnier ? I live in SoCal.

    Mediterranean is good but I have trouble with ‘healthy’ fats. eg oil gives me bad indigestion

    Patrick Sellers says: June 19th, 2022 at 12:53 am

    Is Pasta part of the Mediterranean diet? I know it’s popular in the Mediterranean, especially Italy and Egypt, but it seems really heavy compared to all the foods you listed

    Is balsamic vinegar ok? Like a salad with olive oil and balsamic vinegar?

    Well, you already know how much I adore Mediterranean cuisine…love that you brought up seasonality of produce as it’s a very important factor that I think a lot of people lose sight of….I only eat once a day as you know but I guess if I went crazy and started lifting weights every day I may eat more ( never going to happen;) I’m delighted with your content regardless of whether it is specifically focussed upon cooking…you effortlessly translate any topic my friend:) proud of you…( p.s…the 2 are back again 😂 ) ❤

    Blanche. Is your Greek yogurt vanilla or plain? Curious if you use anything sweetened
