Re: Hormones and Fybro & when 2 add Coco... Oil?

[Guest guest]

Hi Joanne, I have always taken natural bio-identical progesterone, I only took

the synthetic a few days when I ran out of the natural, but my great

bio-identical progesterone is gone.

My doctor switched to another company and this new bio-identical natural

progesterone is different-- it's too strong and that's why I'm cutting back,

that's the only reason. I don't feel right taking it, I feel tired and a little

blue. I need only half my usual dose with this new vendor because it's too

strong.

I rarely ever eat sugar and no white flour, no grains now, but rarely for many

years, only when I'm eating out. I don't keep it in my house for yrs so I have

no temptation.

last two days I start day with protein not cereal and feel different, but did

get dizzy, but understand why. I'm sure I'll detox from meds maybe and other

things.

What you said makes sense. My cholesterol is high when I only ate chicken/lamb,

lots of veggies and cereal and no other bad food except for brown rice cakes. I

should not have had high cholesterol, but dr said it was due to thyroid.

I'd love to add butter back. I'm in overload so doing this diet blindly as

burned on doing research unless it strikes my fancy. I think I was told what

ratio of protein, fat etc. so I will look through saved info.

Maybe I'll see if I can find it now. My veggies are almost always mixture of

brocolli, cauliflower and carrots. I'm worried about carrots. But they are

pre-washed and pr-packaged and mixed together and I need it simple Joanne. I eat

a big bowl of veggies at night, the whole bag 20 grams of carbs + 12 carbs with

Corvalen M and I may have to stop rice milk and veggie patties.

Before going out tonite I had 2 veggie patties 7 g of carbs each so that's 14.

It's adding up. 3 grams of carbs with rice milk in my coffee.

I want to do this right. I didn't have almonds but they add up to 8 grams of

carbs and I have one small packet a day of raw almonds usually but not today.

Today I had 49 carbs, and I think that is high from what I read, but will keep

working on it. Going to lose veggie patties, can I substitute avocados? Or too

much fat?

They're a great food.

20 veggies

12 Corvalen

14 veggie patties (usually only 7 a day if that)

3 rice milk

____

49 (usually total of 42 grams of carbs a day right now)

42 grams of carbs, that's high, cutting out cereal in not enough. I just think

so much animal like chicken and lamb are not healthy. I was vegan 20 years when

I was pretty healthy. I can drink black cofee, yuck, but I've done it b4. Get

rid of veggie patties and rice milk (love my rice milk, may keep it

Okay my friend getting on with this diet and enjoying doing it.

Love,

Jean
