My Total Preggo and healthy blog

Oh wow….  I just finished reading this book "Eat right for your blood type".  What a WAKE UP call…  Anyhew, I did not know my blood type so I ordered one of those "kits", ya know you have to prick your finger blah blah blah… Easy enough.  RIGHT!  I am such a weenie that I just could not do it..  My son "volunteered" but that freaked me out so I ended up pricking my leg so it would not be as bad.  It was not a big deal, guess it was just the anticipation behind it! 

Found out that I am O positive.  That is good, I am a universal donor so the Blood Center will LOVE me!  What that means is that I am the "oldest" type and essentially a hunter/gatherer…  So, my body does not do well on grains and fruits..  DUHHHH  Now I know why carbs turn me into the super pig…  Was kind of funny seeing that I am supposed to be eating weird shit like chicken hearts and beef liver.. YUCKKKK!  I don’t eat red meat at all (no weird gamey stuff either) so I am down with the bird… AND lots of fish.  I am cool with fruits, no melons or strawberries though due to high mold counts.  And WHEAT is TOXIC to Type O- damn shame….  Also toxic is PEANUTS and BEANS- two of my favorites!  My husband would attest to the Toxic and Beans statement (LOL!):0

I thought it was an interesting read and I plan on implementing some of these suggestions to my clean eating regimine to see what happens…  What I found was that my husband (who is a body builder) is a type A blood and supposed to be a vegitarian.  hahahahah.. RIGHT!  He would DIE without meat and protein.  Guess I will have to work on him, more fish and chicken, mostly fish though for protein.  OH he can eat lots of peanuts and beans!

Just curious if any of you guys have followed this advice/diet and what your results were?

Cya!
