Your description of your inner thoughts as you were deciding to take the candy / cake / brownie plunge was so familiar. Doing so has a very short "honeymoon" period...but then all HE double hockey sticks breaks loose and we pay dearly. But...in my opinion, here's a real upside to your experience... 1. Seeing the black specks and fibers as a direct result of your candy fun lets you know just how well this protocol (sum of the parts) is working. When you do it correctly, those issues had all but disappeared for you. That's good information because it means you have a very big element of control. 2. You've realized that whatever IT is, has a consciousness. That makes sense too. It sounds kind of woo woo, but in the sense that there's a parasitic component, I visualize it like swatting at a wasp and it's flying everywhere and trying to hide to keep from being killed. Laura used to say it was like pouring gasoline on an ant bed...they run for cover! This thing also has the super powers of changing dna...morphing to become more resistant and hide. When we do the protocol and suffer so much, that really means it's working like it's supposed to...it's digging deep and flushing the devils out so that the "killers" (my term) of the protocol can get rid of them. When we feel the awful herxing that means lots of bad pathogens are dying! I get stomach aches too after I take all my supplements...sometimes it feels like a floating stomach (you know the feeling)...nausea and headaches. It helps if I eat a little something when I'm taking them...you know...not wait too late after a meal to take them. It'll get better and better as you continue to purge, so there is much light before you even get to the end of the tunnel. I've been here a while...two years in January on the protocol for real. I say that, but I've had many falls from grace...I'll sometimes taper off on supplements as the work week progresses and I get tired. It'll start off innocently enough...a stop at Starbucks to get a hot tea that I sweeten with stevia which is ok, but then as I get busier and tireder, I start to feel increasingly sorry for myself. That's when it's a slippery slope to a hot tea plus one of those cranberry bliss bars. The ultimate slide to the depths is getting seduced by the signs that tempt you in the drive through line...all of their special sugary holiday concoctions with names that make them even more tempting. This is obviously not something I do all the time...because if I did, I'd still be really sick...but it does happen occasionally and I pay dearly for it. Point is...that in spite of all of this, I'm SO much better than I was...so don't worry too much about your candy fest. It happens to all of us at one time or another...or...maybe I should say it happens to many of us. You can still recover and continue to move forward...it'll just take some time and you'll feel the repercussions. But...if you've jumped right back on the protocol (sum of the parts) then you'll have good damage control to undo your little slip up before you know it. This purging misery you're going through right now will finally taper off too. There are so many kinds of purges and they are all disturbing. The key is to stay focused and not let it scare you too much. Two years ago, I'd look down at my fingernails and see them black rimmed all the way around. It was very disturbing. I kept a little finger nail brush and would constantly scrub them. That would make it go away, but it would come back in a few hours...then it went to longer gaps before it came back, and then it finally went away. Oh...as per your stomach issue...I'm not an expert, but I wonder if chamomile tea would be helpful? There are also essential oils you can use that will help...no kidding. You rub them in them topically on your general stomach area and it really helps. I found one from Rocky Mountain Oils called "Tummy Rub" and it has helped me...even when I'm really hurting. It's not terribly expensive...but if you'd like to try to make a larger amount for yourself to save money, you might want to google it and look at the ingredients. Cathee at Kleen Green has the best prices on high quality oils, and she may have the components so you can put something together...or...she might know what you can use that is a simpler combination. Tummy Rub has several different oils in it. Hang in there Nick...this is the worst part...it'll get better for sure. Love, Karen P.S. Your fall into the sugar bowl means you're really feeling deprived. You might want to consider making yourself some tasty treats to have on hand. Donna had a good idea and it's delicious. Put a can of coconut milk in the fridge and then remove the hard part into a bowl and whisk it around until it's pudding consistency. The water in the bottom of the can is where all the carbs are, so discard that part of it. You can put a little almond milk into it to make it the right consistency. Then...sweeten it with stevia, add pecans (or nuts of your choice that you can eat) and then some cinnamon. I did this and added just a half cup of organic strawberries to the whole recipe and that only added another four net carbs overall. That made it pink and festive...and...it was delicious and really checked that box of wanting something "good" to eat. It also didn't take much to feel really physically satisfied...this fills you up with just a small serving. Another fun treat is to get a bottle of sparkling water and add flavored stevia drops to it. I like the root beer...and...if you add the chocolate, you've made yourself a Yoo Hoo! So...find some moments to enjoy while you are waiting to round the bend. You'll get there! | |||
