Yeast /sugar advice and reassurance please

[Guest guest]

Hello

When does one know that the yeast and bacteria is actually gone. We

are into week 5 and BM have been very unpredicable - I don't know if

it is a reaction to a new food or just yeast die off. What is the

difference?

Also my young man is still craving food i.e sugar food and keeps

requesting for the jelly, raisens or honey. I have hardly give him

any honey so far and i have given him raisens to entice to drink the

soup. He is six, with autism, non-social and little verbals (only to

request)and no concept of the diet. I am finding it all very hard as

he seems to have went backwards. He just climbs the cupboards day in

day out as he refuses to eat most of the foods, he is still wetting

at night (he was dry for 2 years before diet) and quite verbally

stimmy. I did G/C free before this with high hopes ABA with high

hopes and now this diet. Even though he has learnt a great deal he

just doesn't see the need to share it. He lacks motivation and could

sit all day watching the world go by. I am wondering am I just

torturing him as he doesn't get into food shops anymore because of

the sweets, does't get top parties, other people's houses -he is an

nightmare to watch because all that is on his mind is food - sugar in

particular, his lunch is bland. He can't stand the sight of fruit - I

made up beautiful ice-cream with bananas and strawberries , a little

bit of coconut milk and a drizzle of honey. hubbie devoured it as my

little one cried his eyes out at the thought of me given this to him.

Later out for a walk he attempted to eat cows manure. I just feel

like giving up. I don't know what I am doing-Every meal he is being

force fed. Before this we were encouraging him to eat with a spoon

and fork now he won't even feed himself . Where am I going wrong? Has

anyone else any of these issues and what helped. Didn't mean to go on

so long but I just feel like giving up!
