 Ossie-Sharon 12 years ago | Hi, Jackiee. Absolutely! |
| Ossie-Sharon 12 years ago | Hi, grannycaz. They are likely to have a different texture, but this is the first time I’ve heard they are heavy and gritty. Try mixing the rice flour with some of your regular flour to get the texture closer to something with which you are comfortable.
As for the sweeteners, we recommend natural rather than artificial Inulin (chicory root sweetener) can be used like sugar, and may be closer to what your used to – just use 1/4 cup for every 1/4-1/2 teaspoon of Stevia or monk fruit. |
 Deborahjjhayes 12 years ago | Yes , There are many times I’m just not hungry, but rather than skip it I eat as much as I can and stop. |
 Cajohn 12 years ago | Has anybody tried halving the portions, .? |
| Deborahjjhayes 12 years ago | Cajohn, I’m so sorry you’ve been sick. Hope it over now!! Good luck! Debbie |
| Deborahjjhayes 12 years ago | Taggie I do that. I yoyo lose but as long as I\’m on a downward spiral I\’m not going to worry about it. Are you on a lot of meds? Sometimes that can cause fluctuations.Hang in there it\’ll pick back up! |
 taggie77 12 years ago | Has anyone experienced weight gain in the third week? I lost 7 the first week and then 4 and I was hoping to lose 2 more this week but yikes I gained 2 lbs. I had a stressful week and haven’t exercised..I do have PCOS. Does anyone have a similar result like me?? Any tips?? |

But im back now ready to start again .
TDC is the best program i’ve ever tried pity not all the features work on ipad . |
| Ossie-Sharon 12 years ago | Hi, MEZwirn. You can use the exchanges in the list to swap out the exchanges in your menu, or to build your own menu according to the exchange pattern that you see with you click on “View Menu Exchanges” to the right of your menu. |
| Ossie-Sharon 12 years ago | Hi, Brian. It all depends how much fruit total and what you have with it. If you have a cup of fruit with the rest of your meal, that’s fine. If it is two cups of fruit, then you can swap out the second cup for a carbohydrate serving, such as bread or cereal. You do want to be sure to have a source of protein and source of fat with the fruit. |
| Cajohn 12 years ago | The first time i started tdc , i was asked if i wanted to cook or not i said cook, how can i change it to no cook if i wanted to.? |
| Cajohn 12 years ago | when the menu says 2 cups of cold cereal , does that mean without milk? |
 jackiee 12 years ago | Hi All, Donna that’s a tricky question because for 2 years my dr told me, as long as meds were right then I shouldn’t have a problem losing weight, however that changed over the last 2 years because now he to has an underactive thryoid and has problems losing weight!!! no he has a different idea and keeps telling me I’m fine the way I am!!! I have also been given adivice from many people, but I know when I start putting on weight even when I’m not over eating, feel more tired and generally down that I need to get blood tests done to check my med levels. Maybe Ossie has a few ideas that could helps Apensa, lol yes but there IS only ONE bottle of tequila, just don’t ask what all the other bottles contain!!!, but to tell you the truth most just collect dust now as the italian culture is so different from my scottish roots. Well folks hope you have a happy healthy week, I’m off to Scotland for a weeks Holiday to see my mum and family so I’ll admit now I wont be following the diet most days!!! sorry I just love square sausage and a slice of bacon to much to not have good breakfast while I’m there. Take care all and good luck sticking to the plan |

| Ossie-Sharon 12 years ago | Apensa ;D Ha!Hi, Francis. Coconut nectar is not carbohydrate-free like Stevia, rather it is a substitute for agave nectar. A substitute for Stevia with somewhat less of an aftertaste would be monk fruit sweetener. |
