Review of About the Genesis of The Greysheet Food Plan - Very Low Carbohydrate Foodplan & Greysheet Recipes (Paperback)

This is a beautiful book. I bought it because I'm on the very low carbohydrate food plan. It has great recipes. I really like the protein and vegetable recipes. I can never think of enough things to do with vegetables. Now I know what other people are cooking. I'm glad to learn more about phone and in person meetings. I never knew where the term "greysheet" came from. A lot of people in Overeaters Anonymous follow it as their personal plan of recovery. I have wanted to learn more about it for a long time.
