Weight Gain

[Guest guest]

Hi Bee,

Thanks for that.

I am not eating any bad fats and have been using dripping but not

lard. I will cut back on the butter and increase my coconut oil

intact. also will buy unsalted butter and see if that helps . no I

haven't been using cod liver oil but I have some carlson brand here ,

is that ok ?? or I think we can get nordic naturals or eskimo here in

the UK.

cheers pip

==>Usually water retention affects the ankles and lower leg rather

than just the upper leg - your ankles would be swollen so that you

can't see your ankle bones as easily.

==>If it was previously opened it would be better to throw it away.

But it will be okay if it has not been opened. Cod liver oil, fish

oil, and vitamins A, D or E in capsules need to be kept in the fridge

after opening them.

Cheers to you too Pip, Bee

P.S. Pip can you please trim your messages? See our Group Files

Pip,

If you aren't 100% on plan but just trying to do it

while still including off plan foods you might see

weight gain like this. The other thing is you might

be doing too high protein or carbs or too low/high in

calories. If you want more help feel free to email me

privately.

This might be a stupid question so forgive me if it

is, but how much other fat are you eating with your

diet? I calculated that my maximum intake of fat

altogether in one day would be 8 table spoons. So 6

of those are raw spooned coconut oil that6 I just

swallow raw. And I'm having trouble keeping my

additional fat intake, ie olive oil and butter to only

one additiona tablespoon per meal making it 9

tablesppoons per day. So perhaps that's happeing to

you as well? Just a thought?

==>See " Taking the Fear Out of Eating Fat " located in our Group's

Files (left menu) in the Folder Candida Diet & Shopping Lists &

All About Foods - it is in the Fat Facts folder. It explains that CO

does not put on weight. As you continue to progress on this program

your weight will stabilize to where it should be. The only other

thing I can think of is that you should try an Extra Virgin Coconut

Oil instead of the one from Mountain Rose Herbs for awhile to see if

it makes a difference - give it 1 month. The one from Mountain Rose

Herbs is good, but it isn't the highest quality one available - see

our Group's Files for the Coconut Oil folder which contains an

article by Jackie, which is very good for CO brands.

==>, you should be " trying " to keep your total fat intake to such

a low amount of fats. These good fats do not create body fats,

unnatural fats and oils do, as well as carbs. One of the main

reasons this program is so successful is because it is high in good

fats.

==>You should be trying to eat the ratios of protein to fat to carbs

recommended in my article " How to Successfully Overcome Candida " - in

our Group's Files (left menu), and also see the Folder Candida

Diet & Shopping Lists & All About Foods, and look for the

Folder " Calculate Ratios " as well, which will suggest using

www.fitday.com to figure out the amount of foods in each of these

groups to eat.

==>If you are concerned about good fats putting on weight please

read " Taking the Fear Out of Eating Fats " in the same Candida Diet

folder, but look for the " Fat Facts " Folder inside of it. If you are

concerned about Cholesterol, which is a total myth, see my main

article " How to Successfully Overcome Candida " and reread this

section:

b. High " good " fats and oils, including oil soluble vitamins and

omega-3 essential fatty acids

I’d say, watch your carbs, drink lots of water and exercise if

you can and see what happens over the next couple of weeks with the weight

Hi all

I'm having a bit of a dispute with my wife regarding whether my weight

gain is due to 1) taking LDN (her argument) or 2) being middle aged

and having an over indulgent lifestyle (my argument). Responses

There have been reports here of LDN causing both, a loss of weight in

Given about half the people who complain about weight changes on LDN

complain about gaining weight and the other half about losing it my

guess is that you're correct!

Thye told me the same thing, in the course of 1 year i gained 50 pounds! it was

horrible for me being an active soccer playing thin teen to go from size 0 and

up so quickly! I now know of course it was because of the co-infection, sudden

bed bound condition, and puberty. It still is depressing though!

I told my primary care doctor on Thursday that I am gaining weight.

I gained 5 pounds in 2 weeks. The told me, that is because you are not moving

around or exercising. She told me that my metabolism has slowed down, and that

if I did not want to gain weight, I need to exercise.

She is the same doctor who I had to beg her to approve me for aqua therapy; To

test me for Lyme; To prescribe me medication for H.Pylori; To give me referrals

to see specialists; and to get various test. To me, she has that old " Group

Health " mentality, trying to save the company money by denying patients proper

care.

I have enough medical problems as it is, and I sure don't want anymore. Dealing

with Diabetes is time-consuming and painful at times.

Another nightmare, is when my pharmacy gave me the wrong type of insulin for

about 3 months. I broke out in hives, severe itching, confusion, and difficulty

breathing. I remember having vision problems and fatigue during this time, but

did not know what it was coming from. I don't know if Lyme had anything to do

with any of these symptoms. This happened twice, and both times it sent me to

the Emergency Room.

I will continue eating my yogurt and probotics to help my immune system.

Jaye, Dr. Schaller says babesia causes weight gain.They are now saying vit. D

helps with weight gain. Are you hungry alot or just weight gain? The candida

could make you hungry and consequently gain more weight. If it is a matter of

hunger reports say chewing about 12 almonds 40-45 times knocks out appetite. The

amount of chews is important. I do that before bed as I am having hunger issues.

Besides thyroid disfunction can weight gain be from Lyme. From when my doctors

feel I contracted Lyme is the same time I gained tremendous weight.

Is there any natural supplements that can help with this?

I gained a lot of weight when my Lyme was untreated, I was always hungry, having

to get up in middle of night because of low blood sugar. Since I have been

treated I went from a size 12 to a size 6, and Im 5'9.

Just found email replies have been going into my bulk folder.

At one time I was very hungry alot, but most of my life including now I have to

remind myself to eat. Since my family doesn't help I basically eat whatever I

can find in the cubbard which I know most is not nutrition. When I do have any

energy to cook I eat very healthy. At the time I was hungry alot I was gaining

and through some reading thought I had Candida but busy with four kids ignored

it. At my last llmd appt I was told I did have it. The very restricted diet my

dr put me on for it is very difficult for me to follow with the lack of energy,

brain fog, and that i'm a vegetarian....but I keep working on it.

And at my last llmd appt blood work confirmed lack of vit d. I recently heard

from someone vit d can also help with brain fog which I have alot of. I'm

hoping the vit d I'm taking now will help with all that.

I find what your saying interesting about weight gain and vit d. Are you saying

lack of vit d helps with gaining weight? I really hope that is the case and it

will also help with my weight. After 4 children I was still a size 3 at 5'3 "

then went to over 200 lbs. I'm still around 190.

I happen to be a nut fanatic with almonds being my all time fav. I'll give

munching on them like you said a try.

I'll write more later. I'm replying off my phone and finding it hard to do this

morning.

Was there anything in particular with your Lyme treatment that helped with the

From what Doug is saying I feel like I'm on the right path withthe vit d and
