bit of good news :-)

[Guest guest]

Bee, thanks for coaching me through this difficult bit- I was beginning to lose

hope I guess, and when that happens, it's easier to fall off the wagon and then

just feel guilty and a failure.

You were absolutely right about the fat... I also realised I was still eating

too many veggies, and after putting my diet into fit-day I realised that

although all my veg was low-carb, there was just too much of it, and I was using

those to fill up, therefore perpetuating the hunger/cravings. So, I calculated

my upper fat ratio, which is 255g- equivalent to a whole block of butter! And I

have taken to it with gusto- and am now meeting it easily and feeling so much

less hungry! I guess I just didn't quite believe I could eat more fat than I was

already.

The acid reflux went, as I didn't need the nuts... and then, hey presto- one

morning I hit the nuts again, and the reflux reappeared. Those nuts are tasty,

but obviously completely indigestible! I'm going to be putting them at the back

of the cupboard for now on.

Thanks again.

enough as noted above. Your pre-menstrual issues will subside when you are

consistently on this program long enough like they have for many women since

this program helps your body balance out its hormones.

+++Hi ,

That is wonderful news! You go girl! It is important to not go over your carb

ratio per day.

If I were you I'd discard those nuts, since healthy people are difficulty

digesting them too, unless they are cooked long enough after soaking them.

What size was the block of butter? Fitday.com says 1 lb = 367.9 grams of fat,

and 1/2 pound = 183 grams of fat. Remember butter isn't the only fat you need

to have, since unrefined coconut oil is also important, along with entering your

cod liver oil. Also their are fats connected with all meats that will show up

on fitday when you enter them.

All the best, Bee
