I am too old to get pregnant, so can I drink to excess now and then?

aside from the fish and meat, I could totally do this diet!

I concur--it's a good way to eat. My wish list includes going to Greece to eat their food for 2 weeks--the real deal, not like the spaghetti I had last night. Wanna go?

I can't have eggs (albumin. Baaaad for gall bladder.)
No dairy.
Can't have anything fried, or "meat." But I cheat
Shelled beans are out, too, and I love Cannelini beans and chili.
Oh, I am sooo hungry.
