You know, I had to time this fast around my family. My poor kids are living

on what ever I can cook really quickly and that doesn't smell too much, and I

waited until my husband was deployed so I didn't have to hear it from him!

But I agree with you. I think I am definitely going to incorporate fasting

into my daily life. Even if it is just drinking a super green shake a day.

I can go until mid afternoon with no hunger, then I can have some safe foods

for dinner.

And as for the cravings, I too have been dealing with them. my way of doing

it was going to the HFS and stocking up on things I will be able to eat when

I am done with this fast. my pantry is now fully loaded! so my cravings are

sort of delayed satisfied. (or maybe I just satisfied my shopping craving

and that did the trick for me. loll)

But on another note, I am so happy that so many of you have taken to

listening to my gross fast story and not E-mailed me that I am nuts. All my

friends here except for one think I am loosing it mentally. And I am so

tired of explaining why I am doing this. I feel so much better and you would

think that would be enough for other people. Oh well...

Do not despair, everyone is different. I know there is a cure, I know because I

have spoken to many people who have beat SEVERE candida. DIET. DIET. DIET!

I know that with constant care. We will all beat this. I actually know someone

who beat Candida on Pavvo Airola's Vegetable juice Fast. It is possible. I know

someone else who closely followed Balachs book, Prescription for Nutritional

Healing. I know someone else did wheatgrass and acidophilis. I know someone else

who did Noni Juice and probiotics.

Everyone's body is different. The thing is to find what work for you!

Do not give up hope people.

Hanida, I just ordered the bruess book from amazon.

I hope more people listen to you and me about fasting.. Because like i said

in my last post.. That is the ONLY thing that has made me feel so good and

like myself again.. The only problem with this is the extreme desire to go

back to normal eating.. Especially when the rest of your family is eating

those delicious meals right in front of you.. I almost went insane from not

eating the stuff i really wanted to..

Listen..you guys have to realize that our bodies are different then others..

I would tell my family that if i just drank water all day....That i feel

wonderful.. And then they start with the & quot;You just CANT stop

eating...Thats

not healthy & quot;.. For the normal body that is correct.. But for ours it

isnt..

The foods we eat feed the yeast.. And causes them to release toxins in our

blood...which make us feel like crapola.

So then i modified the diet/fast to include Water, oat bran , and salad.

With the salad, i add fresh onions , cut tomatoes, 1 or 2 tablespoons of

olive oil.. And some hidden valley ranch light salad dressing..(not too much

though) .. If you guys did this fast for a week you would ALL feel so

great.. i'm telling you.. I never thought i could feel that way again..

Also ALOT of fresh water is very important.. When i was drinking 70 ounces

of water a day along with the fast i was feeling so great..

Ordinary fasting does not work.. I did a stupid thing yesterday and juiced

oranges and tried to start on a fast like that..... Since i hear so many

good things about juice fasts.. No Good ! Candida symptoms returned

immediately... It sucked. Dont do juice fasts..

I've decided to go back on this fast now.. Because sugar/yeast messes with

my life too much.. Makes my brain all weird and headachey..And a million

other things..

And dont be too strict with it.. You can sin once in a while..but just dont

do it all of the time.. Make it like its a career change for yourself..

Because its almost impossible to get arid of chronic candida forever.. Its

probably something were going to have for a long time... Sure, it will

improve and get better.. And you will notice that you could eat more sugary

foods without having bad symptoms..But if you do this too much...The

symptoms will come back.. Stop reading the Curing Candida books because

there is no cure once its in the chronic stages.. And i wouldnt even waste

my money on herbs/supplements if i were you either.. I have stopped that for

the most part.. I only take certain supplements that i know could only

improve my health overall.. Like borage/primrose oil , fish oil ,

bioflavonoids , CoQ10 , Zinc , and a few others i cant remember at the

moment.. The anti-candida supplements will only make you feel worse...And

yes its called the & quot;Die off effect & quot;.. But the candida overgrowth is

going to

be with you forever... So the die-off effects will always be there..

So the best thing to do is change your eating lifestyle.. Its a very hard

thing to do in the beggining.. Especially if you dont have support from

your family...or they just think your crazy for doing it.. But the reward

will be your overall health.. And thats more important then having a choice

of what to eat. Some people dont even have that choice.. Thats a good thing

to think about while you are on the fast or diet.. Just think about all the

starving people in the world. And be fortunate to have the food that you

do.. It makes it easier that way..

Also, unlike hanida... I was not just fasting... I made the fast my

permanent diet for like 6 months.. And during that time like i said.. I felt

wonderful and myself again..

I would like to hear of other fasting techniques or books on fasting for

people with candida if anybody knows any...
