This diet brought all my body’s weaknesses and issues to the forefront: leaky gut syndrome and the all the consequences of it including candida, food sensitivities, and chronic fatigue. Everything was amplified, and thank god I paid attention. My losses are slow, but I am detoxing in a major way, finding out what my body needs to heal and learning to be patient.

I know fructose affects my blood sugar, so I either limit my fruit to 1 a day, or I eliminate it completely. No melbas, I now know that gluten is the cause of my leaky gut. Adding the coconut oil has been hit or miss, sometimes I just feel like I need the extra fat, and I have both lost and gained with it. You have to listen to your body.

Critical to success:
- writing everything down: food, mood, weight etc. This will teach you wonders about what affects YOU and YOUR body
- weighing every day
- identifying your food allergies
- getting good sleep
- including the supplements that YOUR body needs
