It didn’t work for me, and I’ve been doing this diet thing for 8 years now, since I had my son go gluten and casein-free in 2000. I’ve been refining and changing my diet ever since. Unfortunately for my wallet, I really require meat, and a fair amount of it, too. I found all of this out by trial and error, and paying attention to food reactions.

The good news is, when you find the right diet for you, weight loss is nearly effortless. I lost 80 lbs., most of it in the first year, simply by removing the worst food sensitivities.

The bad news is, you have to give up sugar, for the most part. I didn’t get rid of the last 20 lbs until I did, and you’ll still have yeast and therefore gut problems if you keep eating sugar.

And I strongly recommend the Blood Type Diet (and if you’re really ambitious, the Genotype Diet). If anything ever sounded bogus, this does, lol! But I had found out for myself that I was already pretty much on that diet, and the refinements made a huge difference. For the first time in several years, I was able to sleep with my mouth closed!

I had such great results, that many of my friends have tried this, also with great results, and all the people who needed to lose weight, have, and permanently.

You seem like someone who is intelligent and open-minded, or I wouldn’t bother telling you this. I know people have to be completely ready for change before it can happen. But I think you may find that this diet really helps all of your symptoms.

You may also want to know that we’re in the process of getting my husband to an allergist, because he’s improved, but not entirely, with the blood type/genotype diet, and that’s one avenue we’re also going to try, because of you. Wish us luck!

I am excited to read about your journey!

I am 5’4″ and weigh 123 lbs.
