My "Trout Lake" Diet is has made me a new shape!


One page is all you get = my simple approach for people on the go.

My friend/doctor Jack Rusen has added 2 glasses of ice water before every meal .

Forbidden products (direct or as ingredients): salt, sugar, butter, MSG, white flour, red meat, cream, potatoes, white flour pasta, skin, deep-fried food, bread, white rice, soft/high fat cheese, liquor (except a glass of red wine), desserts with sugar and/or milk products and/or white flour, soft drinks other than diet

Encouraged products: as you can pick to Trout Lake - WILD BLUEBERRIES; salads, vegetables (especially dark coloured ones), fruits, green tea, oatmeal, soy products, tofu, fish, white meat of chicken/turkey, salmon, garlic, prunes, bran products, vinegars, Canola oil, flax, brown/wild rice, almonds, skim milk, pepper, herbs, whole wheat flour products

Special treat: CocoaVia products

Approaches to meals:

Breakfast – soy/skim milk, oatmeal, Shredded Wheat/Bran (no sugar), Egg Beaters, fruit

Lunch – salad, fruit

Dinner – veggies/salad, meat or fish (not huge portions), fruit


Exercise is strongly recommended. At least, walk 30 minutes every day. Weight workouts are good. Not necessary to train for and complete 22 full (26.2 miles) Marathons as I have done, but it helps!

and, NEVER, NEVER eat even a mouthful after 8:00 PM

* Based on personal experience over 50 years, losing probably a TON of weight (and close to 40 pounds in 7 months concentrating on this approach!) but still fighting to lose the fat that creeps back, probably due to metabolism that attracts fat … and an innate LOVE of food!

Appointed by the Province of Manitoba as a "Marriage Commissioner" and performed the ceremony for Sarah and Kevin on July 23/06 - they then went to Trout Lake for their honeymoon and took seriously Ivan's message to make Irene a Grandmother!!!
