Re: Ive been experiencing major bloating, is this normal?

[Guest guest]

Try skipping the cheesecake. I still can't handle cheese. Also, does a tea made from caraway seeds not help you?

I know I could not have eaten like this on the beginner's diet where 4 of the 8

items contain so much sugar. Ron

How much yogurt did you start out with? You

don't want to start too quickly because the homemade

yogurt is very powerful stuff. The bloating can be from

die-off, I had it myself at first, and was so bloated I could hardly

eat much at all. Many start out very small with the yogurt,

like 1/8 tsp. then gradually increase as tolerated.

Some don't tolerate the fat well at the beginning. You

may want to strain your chicken broth to remove most of

the fat. Are you diluting your cider?

Carrots havent been good to me so i stopped that instantly, i am planning on

well this is the fourth time that i have restarted because i usually rushed into

introducing new foods and ended up with being back at square one. I have

probably anywhere between 1 and 3 cups of yogurt a day.

would having more DCCC instead of yogurt be a better idea? or just reduce all

dairy products?

cause i feel if that is what i do, all i will be eating is meat, and this causes

my breath to reek and i am out of the house all day.

i havent removed the fat from the chicken soup, i have however removed all the

veggies, am i supposed to remove the fat as well?

Sounds a lot like what I've been experiencing a few weeks into the diet. I'm

beginning to think I need to go back and restart. I also think that I'm eating

too much sugar and yogurt. I tell myself that the yogurt is the good stuff, the

good bacteria, and that honey is LEGAL and then I ignore the fact that it seems

to make my insides start to shift and move and growl. Also, I seem to have the

same reaction to apple juice. you seem to be eating a lot of apple juice... I'm

also speculating that I may be reacting to fat..

When I started out I couldn't tolerate the dry curd cottage cheese; nor

apple cider -- too much sugar in the latter, perhaps.

Pork chops also are harder to digest than ground beef; or grind your own

portk (or beef), so your digestive system doesn't have to do so much work.

Even the yogurt may take getting used to at first.
