So I am trying to go back on the Vivonex Plus diet again because i am so fed up with being a prisoner in a bathroom.
I started last Tuesday so today makes one week....but I have been cheating....
The only solid foods I have eaten have been half a bar of 85% cacao drak chocolate each day and several figs every evening to hlp keep things moving. I ate some grapes and a grapefruit one night as well. As for fluids I am still drinking two cups of coffee each morning with coconut milk, and I have been supplementing the vivnex with Atkins Diet Shakes as they have less sugar and carbs than anything else I can find.
Question is - am I sabotaging my own efforts?
I do take a prilosec each day - should I add a probiotic (say acidopholous?)?
Is it possible to achieve remission of my Crohn's and IBS with the cheating?
Is there a "safe" preworkout supp out there to give me an extra boost for weight training?
I am still smoking - I am miserable enough without eating.
I have reduced my daily "poops" to 2 or three from and avg of 10. I felt "empty" enough to go to the gym at 10:30 am on Saturday - that is the earliest I have been able to workout in years!
Thanks for any advice!!!
