Once I was stable again yes, the weight did come off...but not to discourage you, it's an individual process it took 6 months for me to start losing but at the year mark it started really dropping.

I take a supplement called nutracleanse it's says 1/3 cup a day but I use one tablespoon a day, 2 on bad days and have noticed a big difference also I take a probiotic everyday. It has made all the difference in the world. As far as food it's such an individual thing I feel your pain.

Anything that has calories, I log it.

I haven,t Lost much weight only about 5 pounds since my diagnosis last year but all my hard work had helped me become more toned and I haven't put on more weight. I'm finding a combination of cardio, weights a some yoga or Pilates is the key for me it's just been in the last few weeks that I have started to lose.

Do you have to have a referral where you are from? I found out unfortunately after the trip to emergency and explaining to the emerge doc the symptoms I had been having that you can self refer to certain allergists, but that is in Canada. He gave me a referral and told me to find a new GP. and you are so right about the…

Soak in a hot tub with 2 cups of Epsom salts

I'm not sure, this was just my experience with my client.

Are you logging everything you eat? If so you are starving yourself.

If they are spreading I would be concerned that you may have a staff infection, I once had a client with this problem, he kept getting them and the doc said the same thing you were told, until one day one was really bad and we took him to a walk in clinic- the doc gave him some antibiotics and they cleared up and didn't…

I add spices like curry or cumin when cooking it and sometimes salsa, makes a big difference :)

Sorry I wasn't clear, they are low cal, thats why I need the suggestions :) Thank you so much I'll give these suggestions a try!

I am allergic to: chocolate, fish, sea food, peanuts, tree nuts, sesame, yellow colouring. these are anaphylaxis allergies. I used to get incredibly ill when i had dairy, eggs, meat, chicken, but after switching to grass feed organic beef, and organic eggs etc and going to naet treatments I can have these now. anything…

I use one can of eden organic chickpeas- it would work with kind but I just know how much to use with this can. i drain and rinse and use 1 table spoon of evoo, and 1/4 teaspoon of cumin, paprika, curry, garlic powder, ginger- or any spice combo and spread them out on a baking sheet and cook at 425 for 15 min, give them a…

For snacks I like: roasted chickpeas, cucumber or apples and cheese, pear and feta, carrots with peanut butter, banana, boiled eggs meals: a protein with lots of veggies like red peppers, mushrooms, onions, celery, broccoli and some rice/potato or pasta omelets

Sorry if it wasn't quite right...its just what I was told- I thought it was sound advice since they go to school for years :S

The dietitian told me to take my body weight and divide it in half and that is how many ounces of water I need a day.

Also even if you don't have signs and symptoms of an infection you can still have issues and it does cause off gasing which can be a cause of bloating so I think it's wonderful that you are going to try this diet I hope it works out. Well for you.

I didn't go through the list but grains also feed it- also hormones too much of one can cause problems as well.

I know it's weird, but I sometimes enjoy some pasta with chili over it. Chili isn't bad mixed with Mac and Cheese either. It's like a better version of those hamburger helpers. [/quote] I need to try this!

artichoke hearts/roasted red peppers/mushrooms with goat cheese and a little bit of parm and cream evoo and lemon pepper with lots of veggies veggies including black olives, a bit of prosciutto and some chopped up tomatoes with evoo and even tho I get made fun of at work I love it with some veggies and cottage cheese

Without being able to see your diary, I would say your likely not eating enough....having lots of protein helps keep me full.

For me whey is hard to digest, I use hemp and its wonderful.

I find getting the 100g difficult some days and have tried a few different powders and find hemp the best for me, I had a hard time digesting the others.

Thanks, I just tried that but nothing came up for it :(

I love pilates! I didn't lose weight with it but 7 inches in about 9 weeks.

Chicken breast with roasted red peppers and spinach with some crackers or chickpea nacho chips.

I like Jillian miachels yoga meltdown

There seems to be a lot of sweets in what I read in your diary, and not very many fruits and veg. Also, 1200 cal could possibly not be enough cal especially if you are exercising...personally I would try and avoid sugary treats- and up my fruit and veg intake as well as calories in general.

I loved that book!

we feed natural balance and raw when we can afford it at supper time if we could he would only eat raw food
