Guest guest Posted March 9, 2010 Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 ok, I am looking at this material..at age 49..thinking..49 months..4 years of this diet? It seems unrealistic. I am not a perfectionist..so I am wondering what the best approach would be.. Being on this plan rigidly for one year and then keeping close to the plan but allowing some flexibility after a year, such as Ezekiel bread or a glass of wine... or would there be another options other than 4 years strictly on this diet. My question is what cheating is not that harmful?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 9, 2010 Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 Hi : > I am looking at this material..at age 49..thinking..49 months..4 years of this diet? *** I am entering my third year on this diet and frankly, I don't really count anymore. This way of eating has become second nature to me. I don't want to eat the " foods " that so many people eat which make them sick. Natural healing is very powerful, but it works on a cellular level. So it takes the time it takes. Your body will be healing things you didn't even realize were " broke " ! ****This is actually the way people used to eat before we started eating processed foods. So, it's been around a lot longer than the diet you currently eat! LOL! And many folks when they first start ask about holding on to one or two carbs that they feel they can't " live " without. And this may strike you as rigid, but we have found that Candida can live with very little sugar and you must be as strict as possible with keeping the sugar (Ezekiel breads, wine) to a minimum. ***There is a cheat formula Bee has in place. You can have one cheat food (say one glass of wine) to be consumed within a two-hour period, once a week. But, it's a slippery slope, cheating. And you may find it turns into days of cheating and you disrupt your progress. I think it's best to save cheats for emergencies. Also, you may have increased die-off after the cheat so it may not be worth it. *** Once you have had the time on this diet to get your fats up and start burning fat for fuel, you will feel very differently about food. Your taste buds will change and the diet doesn't seem so difficult. Also, when you start healing and see the changes going on in your body (either the amount of toxins you are dispelling, or something like the improved luster and tone of your skin and an improvement in your symptoms) then you will have some motivation to stick with this.
