MoreDr Jeff,
Started week 3 today and concerned about a couple things:
I've gained, rather than lost, weight. This is huge for me because I'm needing to shed about 30 pounds of excess weight and because my husband and I are trying to conceive.
Been sweating, eating mainly protein, and having bm's, but just gaining continually.
I thought I'd be losing instead of all this gain..any suggestions?
I also haven't noticed a change in any of my symptoms..still very tired, no energy, major vaginal itchiness..
I don't have the finances to invest in more/additional supplements so if there's anything else I can do on my own please let me know.
I just ran out of the Detox essentials, but have Candida force. Ordered some from Blanca today and was told it would ship by Friday. Do I stop taking the CF until I get the DE or continue with just the CF until then?
Thank you so much for any help..
Blessings!

This is a reply to # 2,245,050What are you eating each day, breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks?
How many bowel movements a day do you have?- Re: Confused #156421

This is a reply to # 2,245,126I primarily eat eggs, chicken, ground beef, and ground turkey. I occasionally add in avocado. Vegetables are sparse since I tend to get bloating/gas/cramps from most; I'm mainly eating a keto diet. When I try to include brown rice (cereal, cakes, etc) I tend to have more water retention the following day than normal. I cook most food in either evoo or coconut oil.
I was having about 1 bm/day on average. A couple times I wouldn't have one for 2-3 days. I keep thinking it's because I mainly eat animal protein and nothing else..? I increased my magnesium last night and have been in/out of the restroom all day today. Although inconvenient, it's better than once/day, I'm sure.
I'm unsure if repeating the increased amount will always give the same results, so I'm looking for different options just in case since I'm assuming the slow bowels could be a weight gain culprit??

This is a reply to # 2,245,137Yes, the slow bowels will slow weight loss and can create more gas, bloating, etc., as everything moves more slowly through the intestines and increases fermentation.
Taking Trace Minerals Concentrace at 40 to 80 drops, 2-3x/day can keep the bowels moving. Herbal colon cleansers can work, as well.
Magnesium tends to have that all or nothing response, but you might adapt to it.
