my fruity week so far....

[Alison]

ok havent said nothing on here mainly cos if i fail to complete my week il feel like a right numb-nut but so far so good ,

have just been haveing fruit's and water since monday morning.

to be honest its not as bad as i thought it would be , have gone for just fruits n not veggies bascicly cos i eat when i wanna eat , easy option i spose i dunno .

  havent noticed anything diff so far , only thing i will say i miss and what makes it hard is when im dishing kids dinner up ...monday they had pasta n meatballs ...scrum , was sooo tempted just to nick a taste but was good, so nicking off of plates is hard and also miss that oooo im full up satisfied feeling, you dont seem to get that, just pick at fruit all the time.

Why Anton? are bananas nightshades too?  

[Heidi Hi]

Well done Alison, excellent for a first timer!! Maybe you will upgrade to carrots, beetroots, leafy green vegetables and apples next time??

[Jodie]

My advice would be stay off the peppers, they are a nightshade,

Keep off those ciggs Ali fruity

[Salsera]

 fantastic start Alison.

You might not see much difference on your skin though as ou have some "guilty" ingredient ( that I know off)
- peppers
- citrus fruit

But it is still very good going. And well done for being off the ciggy.



You should be VERY proud of yourself Ali

Hi Alison
Can I add my congrats to those above , and also my own words of 'warning'

The first is to mention that wonderful concept.......sustainability. In my own recent healing process, rather than go for a dramatic detox such as you are undertaking i made a decision about which foods were healthy for me to eat on a regular basis and which were unhealthy. Having made that decision I pretty much stuck to that regime for the following 3 mths, with just one indulgence (a sugar/lemon pancake) in all that time  

The great thing was that after only 2 weeks or so i started seeing unmistakable signs that the p was on the wane.......i would wake up each morning and eagerly turn on the light to see how much improvement there had been since the previous morning. So it seemed for me that a consistent and sustainable diet was the key (altho i also preceded this change of diet with an intestinal cleansing program).

What i have noticed since then is that when, for various reasons, i allowed myself to indulge in just a few 'naughties' over a period of just a week, the p showed almost immediate signs of returning. :'(

The good thing about this however is that with such a rapid feedback of symptoms and triggers, it gives even more encouragement to stick to the healthy foods.

So, to cut a long story short...........are you really going to have that apple crumble and custard on sunday?? (and the roasties??)  

with very best wishes for your healing
