Guest guest Posted January 21, 2008 Report Share Posted January 21, 2008 Hi All, Last week Monday I stopped using the hormone cream I had started last year in April before finding this program. For the last 3 months or maybe more I have had PMS, marked by abdominal distention and water retention 24/7 and a few other symptoms, starting Saturday evening through Wednesday morning. Every weekend this happens and it's frustrating. This last weekend, after stopping the cream, the PMS started Saturday morning instead of evening which was even more frustrating. Also, I have been avoiding butter because I also get pretty bad abdominal distention and water retention from it. This would typically last about 24 or even 36 hours when eating trace amounts. So what I have done since finding Bee's program, is to eat butter while I am PMSing since I already have the abdominal distention and water retention. Well, this morning around 9 AM my big, distented stomach was back to being perfectly flat and the water retention is gone also. I had had some of the fake cream in my decaf this morning so that means the PMS ended 2 whole days earlier than it has been AND I don't have a reaction to butter anymore. I am SO excited and I really needed some progress. I have some pain again today from die off I assume and I know that it's going to be only smooth sailing from here on out, but to me this is a sign that things are getting better. Just wanted to share! Blessings, a Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 22, 2008 Report Share Posted January 22, 2008 a, Great news! Yeah! I was thinking though, as gelatin is suppose to be very good for digestion, do you think that may be why you experienced this improvement. Theres a lot of great info yo be found about gelatin on the weston price site, here is just one of the many articles you can read about it. http://www.westonaprice.org/foodfeatures/brothisbeautiful.html I know my stomach distention issues improved some when I started to eat more soups. I never connected the two, but maybe for you and me, it was the gelatin that helped. Just something to think about. Next time you have bloating, eat the fake cream and see if it goes away sooner. I know the next time I have bloating issues, I am going to have bone broth or fake cream myself to test the connection.
