Will do sun sal in the mornings, and his recomeneded exercises for 2 mins morning and night... I think this will help alot, plus im only 43, from my perspective, being so young I can fix myself of this issue.
"Only 43" I love this!!! Please let us know if these exercises help.0 -

Meat breaks down completely and the body absorbs it very well, whereas vegetables are at best only partially digested.
really??? I never knew that, (about the veges and meat digestion info) what fiber are you taking? Is it a powder or pill or? I know there are heaps of fiber in beans...hence baked beans for dinner tonight
Never took any fiber, I'm talking about what comes naturally in veggies and greens. Before trying this diet experiment people cautioned me about the horrible constipation i was in for, but just the opposite happened. So much of the conventional wisdom is simply wrong.
Jim could you please give us some examples of your meals?
2 fried eggs with roughly 10 pieces of bacon. (went a little overboard but hey it's bacon)
2 fillet mignons
1 hamburger patty
polish sausage (about 4 inches)
couple slices of cheddar cheese
plate of pork rinds
roughly 1/2 cup full-fat plain Greek yogurt
sparkling water
Typically there would be more meat, but last night this was enough.
Meats are cooked with olive oil and or butter.
In the past, i would have woken up the next day with a massive gout attack if i did that. I think the meats with sugars will cause gout. not sure if the sugars are cut out.0 -

I'm having no issues whatsoever but I'm at zero carb or very close to zero in any case.

I just couldnt stand having beans and toast today......so instead I had a husmanskost meal....a microwave dinner I think its called. But its my favourite one, its called grandfathers Delicatessen meatballs hahha.
So I had that with 3 slices of bread, and for dessert I had an apple and 4 pieces of chocolate. Feeling good..but tummy area is sore due to my exercises and sun sal this morning.

I got rid of a 6-week gout attack last year that was crippling by totally cutting out all refined sugars. Was gone in about 4-days or so I think. I read it is worse than meat for causing gout so i tried it.0 -

Glad to hear the exercises are working0 -
Thankyou thankyou thankyou everyone!!!
Another tiring day for me, today we painted the kitchen ceiling...it was the last room thankfully so now all the paint has been put back in the pantry and the ladder can go back downstairs tomorrow. Then I cleaned the house....so I was pretty tired afterwards...
I didnt do my tummy exercises this morning after I realized stretching up to the ceiling with my roller really stretched out between my stomach and ribs.....great workout for that area!! I even stretched backwards further on purpose to realllllly stretch hahha it was kind of fun!!
Then after that I had a nice relaxing shower, I love taking a shower after Ive cleaned the whole house.......it just feels extra nice.!
Dinner was lasagnette with beans with 2 baguettes and dessert was a small rice pudding with a chocolate.0 -
oh man, I forgot to mention yesterday was my splurge day.
i had a very tiny cheese burger from our local grill bar around 4pm. Tuna pizza for dinner... rice pudding and two chocolate biscuits for dessert, then later I helped my husband demolish a mixed bowl of cheese doodles, cheese balls and barbeque chips (all were chips) with my pepsi max.
My splurge days have really been cut down this time around since my stomache troubles started, I cant eat as much as I used to (before this would have made me SUPER depressed) but now days, I dont really care so much about it, so its a good thing!0 -
Sounds like your doing good Kitty!0

not sure when, but today I really hurt my left hip, might have been when we took the old oven downstairs today, or it could have been when I was trying to help pull the new oven in today.......either way I told my husband and he agreed as he feels off too! That from now on we will just pay people to bring anything we buy up the stairs! we are no longer spring chickens it seems!!
Dinner was simple, quick and wonderful.......fish and chips in our deep fryer!
trouble is......we got a new freezer coming tomorrow. so im just gonna white knuckle it and tough it out one last time!0
