[quote=Anonymous]Bumping this old thread. Relative is using Profast Diet method/book to reverse pre-diabetes at doctor's rec. I've been making some of the PSMF recipes from the book and some newer recipes of Maria's.

I want to encourage relative but I'm also trying to hold/build muscle and lower fat % to stave off any health issues for myself. So far, I'm really enjoying Maria's protein sparing bagels, noodles (cut like spaghetti or used for lasagna), protein sparing sliders and protein sparing deep dish pizza. She uses a lot of egg whites, egg white powder and gelatin (I add that to the pizza too, makes it chewier). I seem to get a lot of satiety from the egg white recipes, which I did not expect. I avoid sweeteners so do not use allulose which she uses for browning and I skip all the dessert, donut, etc recipes.

Anyone else find them useful? I'm surprised at how much more full I am, and for how long, compared to if I just eat a burger in say a lettuce wrap. I think all the gelatin seems to be helping my hair and nails, too. I am doing a few PSMF days a week, rest low carb, and strength training, so far so good.

According to my mom, a lot of people used gelatin in the 70s and common diet foods were cottage cheese or hamburger patties, so, pretty similar. [/quote]
