This is my first post. I have been on this diet for 12 days now, not for cellulite or acne, but for constipation. Quite serious. Since about 2 months ago my stools are as thin as a pencil and in small quantity. So far with this diet I have a bowel movement almost every day, but still as thin as a pencil. I could hardly chew and swallow food for the last few days before starting this diet, I felt so stuffed up.
The first week on this diet was hell for me. I work full time, take care of the family (all grown ups) and hardly have time for something else. We all eat out, for the 3 meals of the day, so it is quite stressful to find time for this new activity (go to the market, washing, peeling, cutting, blending fruit, etc.). I didn't get enough sleep all the first week and almost fell sick with sore throat. This 2nd week is a bit better. Since i don't have an issue with acne, etc. so I use salt, a little soy sauce in the salad, ginger, blended bananas, etc. OK?
Anyway, the most important for me is to drink juice because is the best way that i am able to swallow such quantities of fruit a day. If i had to chew, I couldn't eat half the amount required. I have many questions and doubts, I hope you could give me an answer:
1) foremost, i want to understand if i use a juice extractor, can i throw in the whole fruit, i mean, seeds and all? Because I could go crazy if i had to seed the fruit as well. I refer to watermelon, grapes, the best part of the guava is where the seeds are. How about pitaya (dragon fruit)?
I try to eat as many different kinds of fruits as possible, otherwise the eating is not enjoyable, it turns boring, always the same. Watermelon and grapes are great to put moisture in the juice without adding water or sugar. Now is not orange season here.
2) So far i haven't found unshelled nuts, so i'm not eating that, is it OK?
3) I'm eating only 1 yolk a day because the best organic eggs i find (5 or more times the price of the regular ones) don't meet Wai's standard of freshness. Is it too little yolk?
4) When Wai's diet says 100gr. of rice, is it weighted cooked or raw? This is my main munch food, with some salt and 1 or 2 tbs of olive oil. Is it OK for my guts' condition?
5) if i add the yolk in the rice, how hot can the rice be, or not at all?
6) i'm taking biofermin 3 times a day (composition:Concentrated Bifidobacterium bifidum 2 mg, concentrated Lactobacillus acidophilus powd 2 mg, concentrated S. faecalis powd 2 mg) is it OK? Because 2 weeks ago all that I ate and wasn't starch or meat, could clearly be seen in my stools: vegetables, fruits, etc. completely undigested. I started the biofermin together with this new diet. Now my stools look much normal. I try to have as little fibre as possible, but to the office I can only take whole fruits.
7) when Wai's diet says 1 litre of juice a day, it refers to juice made in an extractor without any water added, is it correct? So if i do it in a blender, with all the pulp and some water added, i have to drink more than 1 litre, yes?
Any recommendation to detoxify the body and help regenerate the intestinal flora? I have ALL my molars with amalgam fillings, if you know what I mean. I hear that this poison also contribuites to constipation. Take the fillings out is absolutely not an option.Thanks so much for whatever help you can give me.
