Hi Mona,

That is interesting. Do you know the source for that information? I fell

into eating oatmeal every day during my recovery. I wonder if there is a

connection between eating oatmeal and lower thyroid hormones. By the way why

would you avoid oatmeal if it might enable you to take less ATDs?

November 13, 2000

Dear Mona,

I think 's question was, if oatmeal enhances the effect of the ATDs, why

would you avoid it? If something helps the ATDs to work better, that should

be a reason to use it, not avoid it. Does this make sense?

Mona, what's your source re: oatmeal? I love it and it's one of my favorite

comfort foods. I hope you're mistaken! Perhaps I'll start trying a toasted

English muffin with strawberry preserves or some Yoplait custard-style

yogurt. I can't stomach much before 10:00 A.M. and then it's too close to

noon. Maybe I'll take a blender to work and make " smoothies " for my fellow

co-workers in the legal department once in a while. I DO love them but

they're work!

The NGDF bulletin board was a great help to me at a time when I had many

questions...especially about TED. I also met a person locally at NGDF that

referred me to my current Endo! I don't remember who told me about the

oatmeal but it came from someone on that board. I didn't question it at the

time.....just wanted to get better. I'll do a search on their bulletin

board and see if I can find the source! Mona

I used to have a slice of toast with jam and flax seeds on it. Since I

started the program at the beginning of this week, I have been having one

scrambled egg done in olive oil and 2 slices of turkey bacon. It is

satisfying and keeps me going untill lunch. I thought I would miss the

toast with an egg but I do the bacon really crisp on use it to put pieces of

egg on it and eat it like it was toast.

<< i am having trouble figuring out just what to eat for breakfast >>

I used to be a non breakfast eater but this diet made me want more energy.

It turned me into an energy junky who wants fat and protein. I tried the

smoothies etc but it just didn't work for me. I usually eat eggs and left

over steak or meat. I do sometimes eat bacon or sausage (Oh my God!!) but I

burn it to a cinder. I need a lot of protein for breakfast. Some folks say

that they eat all of their carbs in the morning but munching on fruit or a

salad in the morning is a little much for me. I'd rather watch a cow munch

on salad and then shoot the cow and eat it for breakfast. I save my salad

for dinner and eat fruit sparingly.

i am having trouble figuring out just what to eat for breakfast

this morning it was eggs but i am not much of a breakfast eater at

the best of times

Is there a meal plan anywhere i can access

thanks

Ahhhh.... yes. Newbie need to know what to eat for breakfast!

Perfect.

If you pay me a dollar everyday I will personally instruct you what to eat

for breakfast. That way you won't have to waste your time thinking about it!

I figure, if people will pay " professionals " exhorbitant amounts of money

for nutrition " advice " that pales in comparison to the BTD, then my

breakfast suggestions will surely be worth a dollar per breakfast! Simply

tell me what is in your house, food-wise; that means dry pantry, fridge,

even herbs in your backyard (it would help immensely if you had some

marijuana, BTW, as I'm sure we could arrange an even less expensive

consultation fee, perhaps even a barter system of sorts...).

Or you could eat what you have eaten for breakfast BEFORE the diet, but

eliminate avoids and emphasize the HBs (even breakfast should adhere to the

BTD).

Or you could eat leftovers from last night's dinner. This concept helps

drive home what Os are REALLY about. We are NOT spelt-cake eating wussies or

spelt-cookie eating pussies or rice-pasta dining wimps or soy-milk

smoothie-making pimps!

WE ARE Os! We are primal! We are savage! We are strong!

If I eat something " fruity " , such as reconstituted (re-hydrated) figs or

prunes or apricots or a banana smoothie or something else high-carb and

easily digest for breakfast I will follow it up with a REAL meal of lots of

meat and plenty of calories from FAT! I don't go for a bernaise sauce or

anything frenchy-fancy like that!

I don't like to oxidize my valuable high-cholesterol yolks. If I'm eating

steak tartar (the best breakfast) I'm all set, if I'm not eating tartar I'll

break a yolk on my food if I feel like it. There's your " breakfast eggs "

folks!

Need morning exercise suggestions? Go out and kill something! Need breakfast

meal suggestions? Eat what you killed!

I try and eat my red meat early in the day so I usually saute a steak or

lambchop. I like it rare so it only takes me about 5 minutes.

January 15, 2005

As for soy or rice milk - go ahead and use it. For me, I don't do well with soy

- I also don't like the taste.

I use the organic milk because it is already in the house for my daughter who

refuses to even try this way of eating. She does eat what I cook and respects

my choices, but there are too many tempting avoid foods in the house now that

she has come back home.

Meat and vegetables. I usually eat ground beef cooked with onion, garlic, red

peppers, salt, and salsa. I put it on top of heated frozen spinach or any

vegetable left over from the night before. I make a big pot of the meat, then

it's not hard to heat up enough for a meal. This morning I had a hamburger patty

with salsa and some cooked fresh summer squash.

Breakfast

Hello all,

New to the group, but I've been familiar with ER4YT for several

years. I haven't had a lot of experience in following it, however in

the short time that I did, I lost about 10 lbs in a month without

even thinking about it. (that is beyond impressive for me)

Now, I hate just jumping in with a question, but isn't that really

why we all join these groups?

My main weakness with this whole system, is Breakfast. I'm not a

morning person, so I tend to sleep till the last possible minute,

and now that I'm a single mother, I have even less time in the

morning. On top of it, I tend to avoid the kitchen just on general

principal. I actually tried to blow up the microwave a couple of

weeks ago. And to make matters even worse, I'm kinda on the broke

side of finances, so buying expensive breads etc is pretty much out

for the forseeable future.

Now, being that wheat, potatos, corn, and pork-products are out, I

can only tolerate small amounts of eggs, and cereals don't fulfill

me, what on earth am I supposed to eat for breakfast? I'm the type

of person who needs variety in my life, so even if I were to come up

with one or two things, I would only stick to it for a few weeks,

then I would be back to old habits.

So, any ideas? The more the merrier. I will be forever grateful for

any thoughts.

Thanks in advance.

September 13, 2006

Welcome ,

We all have had great results, and keep learning from each other. I think

question from new people have resulted in more new information than anything

else.

Come on, Give Us Something to Research...

I have been on the road you are for some time. You have probably already

noticed how much you are not spending on all that garbage that is avoid. Ground

beef is your best bet. It's going to stick with you for a good part of the day,

keep you running with ALL your senses active, and you can buy very good quality

that is still cheap. Better quality meat reheats better, and tastier than the

cheaper stuff though. Grass Fed poor cuts are better than grain fed high

quality cuts.

While meat has been the root of some very hot debate in this group, most of

us know it's what satisfies us best. I keep containers of meat in marinade

running non stop in the fridge, and some kind of Chili/pasta sauce/taco meat

type of dish cooked in bulk. Most will agree that some kind of leftovers are

best, so cook dinner with breakfast in mind. Kale, or spinach make good

wrappers for a very satisfying rolled breakfast.

A few weeks like this and you will wonder how anyone could live on cereal

for breakfast...

I would recommend to purge your house of all avoids.

When folks tell you think of them as poison, they are not kidding.

Sorry to all the regular speakers.

I have been preaching the power of BTD at work and family.

Live well, and enjoy every moment,.

Same question here. Are we supposed to eat something every few hours? Can

someone give us some schedule ideas with some suggestions on what to eat when?

I read yesterday that grape and cranberry juices were better than OJ or

grapefruit juices.

Jenn,

Breakfast is what floats your boat the moment you decide to eat it at stage 1.

Your need at that time is hydration, potassium, salt and the lactbacilli and

protein in the yogurt. You are pulling out all the excess fluid from your

joints and extremities and eating from your stored fat. You hear us talk about

how our arthritis pain goes away during stage one, that is because all the fluid

pressure in our joints has lessened.

Stage 2 is the same except you are adding some bulk in the form of a soft

boiled egg, or egg salad, mashed potato and most of all, you are still healing.

During stage 2, you eat " A B C " food --- already been chewed food. What you eat

doesn't matter as long as you follow the list of choices. Breaking it up into

what to eat and at what time is what your newly strange scrambled brain wants at

that moment. Stage one, I liked hot V 8 with beef broth mixed in it. Stage 2,

I liked simply mashed potatoes for 2 meals of my 3 with salty fluids in between.

Key words.... what floats your boat at that moment. Oatmeal didn't sit right

with me ever during stage 1 and 2.

Drink drink drink.......

1st - don't think in terms of breakfast, lunch & dinner. I remember Dr. D.

telling me before my surgery to only eat when you feel hungry, not just because

the clock said it was time to eat! So, if you feel like eating, then eat, if

you don't, then don't.

Also - don't get stuck on breakfast foods, lunch foods, dinner foods. You can

eat any type of food at anytime (on correct stages).

Stage 1: yogurt, crackers, soup broth, gatorade

Stage 2: yogurt, crackers, soup broth, gatorade, soft cooked eggs (if they set

well w/ you), runny mashed potatoes, grits, oatmeal (if they set well w/ you)

mushed up - overcooked veggies, a little peanut butter on your crackers for

protein.

Good luck!

I liked (and still like) the cottage cheese doubles from

Breakstone. They come with pineapple, strawberry, peach or

blueberry. They have a pretty low sugar content and have a good

amount of protein. They make a good breakfast when you're on the

go, too.

stage 1 yogurt, broth, gold fish, saltines, nothing with a hard edge, same thing

for lunch and supper and snack time...stage 2 soft scrambled egg, boiled egg. (

some have trouble with the yolk as it tends to gum up in the tummy, if that is

the case, try just the white. I has all the protein in it anyway. protein drinks

made like a smoothie, add just a bit of fruit and blend the tar out of it, go

easy, cheese if memory serves me is o.k. anything that actually has to be

chewed well. no bacon, sausage, pancakes, but oatmeal, grits, cream of wheat,

etc is great add a bit of protein powder to it if you want and it becomes a

source of extra protein for you...

take care in Mo,

> I have multiple food allergies and am on a rotating diet. I eat

eggs every five days. I eat either fruit or grains such as teff,

gluten free oats, and quinoa the other mornings. I am having trouble

trying to figure out what to do about breatkfast. I can't eat eggs

every day because I will have an allergic reaction. I have found a

recipe for beef breakfast sausage I can use, but does anyone have any

other suggestions or should I just eat what I would normally eat at

lunch or dinner for breakfast? I am new to this so any ideas would be

appreciated.

+++Hi. Is your name ? It is not necessary to rotate any of

the foods recommended on this program, since you couldn't possibly be

allergic to God-given natural foods. Human bodies are all designed

to consume good unadulterated foods in order to be healthy.

Many foods are also antifungal, including eggs which contain

sulphur. But again healing reactions doesn't mean you are " actually "

allergic to them. Your body is only allergic to toxins and poisons.

Food allergies is big business however, and it is very misunderstood

by doctors, natural practitioners, etc. They attribute reactions as

allergic, however they are exactly the same set of symptoms as

healing reactions the body itself creates in order to heal itself,

detoxify, etc.

Because good unadulteratered foods cause healing reactions you start

with small amount and only gradually increase them so your healing

reactions are tolerable, i.e. start with 1 tsp. of egg yolk and

increase the amount very slowly.

To understand allergies versus healing reactions see these articles:
