Vanessa had IBS and felt bloated, sluggish, constipated and exhausted.
Here's how she finally got rid of her digestive issues, and lost excess weight at the same time:
I was introduced to this way of eating one week after Christmas 2016. I was feeling my usual bloated, sluggish, constipated and exhausted. I had diagnosed IBS and I avoided wheat but things still were not right. After spending most of 2016, and several years previous, feeling physically awful, I was ready for a change.
After lots of reading on Diet Doctor I knew this was the way forward.
Sugar was never an issue as I hardly ate it, but rice and root veggies, plus low-fat products, were my go to. I didn't really need to loose weight; I needed to feel healthy.
I adapted to low carb high fat quickly, though eating all the fat was an initial struggle; I had been drip-fed the 'low fat' way of eating for so many years.
7 months in and I am almost completely cured of my IBS.
7 months in and I am almost completely cured of my IBS. I have lost over a stone in weight and have dropped two dress sizes. I feel great!!I share this lifestyle whenever possible, but still the majority of people are in the 'low-fat' zone and it is hard to change that mind set.
I am a massive fan of what Diet Doctor is trying to do and I will NEVER go back to old eating habits (though I do, of course, have cheats on occasions and boy do I suffer!)
Thank you Diet Doctor, you have really changed my physical life 😉
No pics to share, sorry.
