“New” member
Hello!
I am a new member, I posted last week but maybe everyone was busy
with
the holiday because I didn’t see any replies.
I am pretty new to the ER4YT diet and over the past 2 weeks I’ve
followed it mostly, but not 100%. I even thought I was following it
100% and today I saw my Dr. and she said that I probably shouldn’t be
eating the mustard & mayo that have vinegar…I should be making my
own 
Do you all eat store bought mustard & mayo or make your own,
or do you have a special brand you use?
My Dr. also recommended that I get the Blood Type Specific vitamins &
herbs from the D’adamo website. Those, in addition to the other
supplements she recommended for my chronic candida, are going to end
up costing me more than the Dr’s visit, ack! Do any of you use these
blood type specific supplements? I’m debating using them…or at
least to the extent she has recommended. I’ve got my shopping cart
full right now and I’m not sure I want to spend $80 on 3 bottles of
supplements.
Did anyone else cheat at a July 4th picnic? I planned to take my own
food and behave until my MIL announced that she made Carrot
Cake…then ER4YT was history. I did good yesterday getting back on
track and then after dinner we went to MIL’s to swim….and they were
finishing off the carrot cake and I had some. I thought I was
strong, but I’m having a hard time saying no to temptation.
On the subject of vigorous exercise…. I have gone through periods
of exercise in my life, but they usually don’t last long. I always
have a hard time getting started, right now I haven’t exercised
seriously in about a year. I take the stairs at the library, walk
the
mall, work in the garden, swim and sometimes walk the dog….but I
know it’s not enough to count as real exercise.
I hope you’ll all accept me into your group.

Hi Tracie!
Of course, you will fit right in. We ALL have our pace and degree of
compliance. I also had a close call with carrot cake over the 4th, but my
father-in-law got there first and i didn’t have to worry about cheating!!!!!!
you turned onto this road (ER4YT). To me that means you are serious about
changing you’re life! Dont worry. Glad you are here. We have so many
specialists in our group as you will see. From humor to medical expertise to
fixing toilets. Stick around, and don’t be too hard on yourself!

Aww Nancy,
I make meat stuff all at once and freeze. i take a little chicken and beef
out for few days, and alternate with canned tuna and turkey or chicken. I
dont cook everyday for just me. No way. We gotta make it convenient, and
then it works for US, whatever our disposition is. I keep Ezekiel Bread, and
plums, and apples, and pumpkin seeds on hand also. Those staples i always
have. And Romaine lettuce. Lots of eggs. Some soy milk. I think those 8
things is the difference for me. O Bars. Try not to admit they are a
serious part of my plan but they ARE! My treat.
Simplification may be your strategy. Stock up on eight most important
things. There really is an overwhelming amount of ways to eat ER. For me
though, no gourmet, i just gotta grab something to eat, usually.
Hot Lemon Water each morning first thing is a real help. It feels right.
Might try that.
Just hang in there and stay simple til you feel better, okay?

Hi egroup,
I also am new to the group like Tracie,trying real hard to make the needed
changes in my diet. I have no problem with meat as it does help my energy,
but I too “love” carbs. always have always will. With groups support I’m sure
I’ll be able to at least be able to control these cravings.
Does anyone else use D’s vitamins? I feel I need something to help with leg
cramps when I exercise.
Gary would the Opti-Fuel 11 you mentioned help with the led cramps I wanted
to try some of these products before but didn’t have any idea what to use,
thanks for any help in this area.
I really appreciate this group I don’t feel so alone in my efforts, your real
people dealing with many of the same weakness I have.
About me- I’m 49 yrs.old, married, 2 grown children, I’m a hairstylist,
trying to lose some weight and feel better about myself.
Thanks again for letting me join the group, hope I can be of help too.

Hi Tracie!
Welcome to the group. I am myself quite new here too. It is a very nice and
knowledgeable group (although once in a while there is someone who instead of
thanking the person for the efforts made to get info. complains…)
I prefer to get my supplements from different sources and from Life Science
Products 435-628-4111 the Probiotic they carry completely rid me from any
vaginal discharges and constipation. I am trying now d-Lenolate (Olive leaf
extract) and it says it is good also for Candidacies (I am taking it to make
sure a wart in the finger doesn’t reappear).
Have a nice day! Teresa
