A big ole steak on the grill and some brocolli with soy cheese and salad with just olive oil.

Hard boiled eggs by the dozen, raw almonds are my favorite snacks.

And I make chocolate in my fridge out of virgin coconut oil, sugarfree cocoa powder and stevia. Virgin coconut oil also works against candida.

As far as snacks go, I eat primarily nuts, hard boiled eggs, almonds, pecans and plain yogurt. I sometimes also eat edamame, which are basically just soybeans.

If you are doing ok keeping the yeast away, you can add raw veggies or some high fiber fruit (pears and granny smith apples). But if you have any yeast problems, don't eat fruits and veggies without first putting protein in your stomache.

Try to find easy ways to prepare meats. I bought a George Forman, which is wonderfully easy.

And, if you are getting too few calories and losing an unhealthy amount of weight...then you have a great excuse to eat fat

Now I eat many small meals. I need a lot of protein and extra fat. My previous diet was very low in fat. Now fat seems to help lessen herxing and generally makes me feel better(releases bile which removes toxins).

I eat lots and lots of vegetables. For breakfast I have sauteed vegetables with an egg on top.

To make salads more filling I add shrimp, avocado and whole milk yogurt (goat milk). Sometimes I make dressing with mayo & mustard.

I can't eat any grains except occaisional white rice. Bread substitutes are out for me. Sushi is a treat.

A rotisserie chicken provides quick meals and I eat the skin too since the extra fat seems to help. I always have frozen bison burgers in the freezer. They cook quickly. Canned sardines come in handy.I add canned beans to my vegetable stir fry. Occaisionally I add lentils.

I buy everything organic. There is good information about suppliers on www.mercola.com

Today I tried bean threads (cellophane noodles) made from mung beans. They seemed OK for me. I soaked them for a minute in boiling water and added them to my stir fry. I also put some into soup. The Asian grocery sells big bags of them.

I plan ahead and pack lunches. Lunch at restaurants is often difficult since most choices have bread or flour or are not filling. Breakfast out is easier: Omelet, no toast. Dinner is easier too. Meat or fish, salad, vegetables, occasionally rice or baked potato or else extra vegetables.

But I do not cut out carbs... I just take my acidolphilous.

I'm 5'5 and less than 110lbs.... If I cut out my carbs I would loose so much weight.... I also have a stomach condition tha tprevents me from eating certain meats and most fruits and vegtables... so carbs are essential for me.

I was able to keep some of my usual ones, corn tortillas, brown rice, brown rice pasta, but inititally went off of the corn and rice for a couple weeks then slowly added it to make sure it was ok for me. I eat beans and lots of nuts, generally lentils, pinto beans, black beans, and cashews of any form raw, salted, almond butter, raw soaked almonds. I need the calories, I eat alot of carbs, and my candida is under control now.

I also upped my vegetable intake, and initially upped my egg intake alot, like one a day, to keep wheight on. Once my body got better, after a month or so, I was able to start cutting back on the eggs. I only eat them a couple times a week right now. I do not eat meat of any type, or dairy, and I used to only rarely eat an egg.

I has been 3 1/2 months, and I tried a peice of homemade whole wheat bread last month and reacted. But last weekend sucessfully had a few pieces of homemade sourdough bread at a friends, made with fresh ground whole wheat four, sprouted rye berries and his homemade sourdough starter.
I'm not ready to try this rutinely yet, but it was GREAT, and it is good to know it will be possible to enjoy these things again.
