Low Everything Diet - Nutshell Version

Is lemon and hot water okay? I know it’s meant to lower PH but it helps curb my appetite.

1500-1800 calories for most people. If weight comes off super fast you may need to go up to 1800-2000. A very few people go to 1200-1500 but that's only like 3% of people.

40-50 g of protein for most people (if you have PCOS, more than 30 lbs to spare, or have egg qualitty issues you need to increase to 50-60 g protein)

30-60 g fat for most people. (if you have PCOS, more than 30 lbs to spare, or have egg qualitty issues you need to increase to 50-60 g protein)

You don't count the small amounts of protein and fat in fruits or vegetables and you don't count calories in lower carb vegetables but you do in fruits and high carb vegetables.

Thank you I’m having the hardest time to get calories I’m only getting around 1100 but my fat is at 40 g which I’m guessing is to high for that low I’m also breastfeeding baby boy #7 who’s 9 months I’m not hungry at all I’m actually a lot fuller then I was before. Am I ok? Or what do I do to raise calories with out fat every vegetarian low fat recipe I find has hardly any calories

Oh whoops I missed this post in this thread.

I personally doubt lemon water even sways blue. I have people do it for blue sways because it's good for them to drink water (to make more CM) and also to prevent them from doing the options that are much more dangerous for their healht (baking soda) and their sway (apple cider vinegar, which may lower blood sugar) I mostly have pink swayers avoid it just in case but totally fine if you want to use it.

1100 calories is not allowed for anyone.

I want anyone breastfeeding to up calories to 1800-2000 at least to start with. If you really, really find you are making adequate milk on that, you can try 1500-1800 but I'd not go any lower than that while nursing.

I also recommend swayers who are nursing to eat 50-60 g protein and fat. So right there you will actually have more fat to play with to get those calories.

Can you tell me the types of foods you're eating and I'll tell you what to do differently?

Breakfast coffee
Lunch salad with ranch dressing and a bagel and cream cheese
Dinner rice and veggies I’ve have white chicken chili with salad, potato and salad I have only started this past week.

One other question my cycle has always been 25 to 28 days but these last couple months it dropped to 24 days and then out of no where started today which is 19 days 🤦🏼*♀️ How would I even find out ovulation last month I used a kit and had a positive so I’m assuming I’m ovulating.

[atomic sagebrush]

Try putting some other ingredients on the salad like egg or cheese or beans/nuts or even a bit of meat.

have soda or even juice with the salad and bagel, if you need some protein have it with the rice and veggies, cook them with more fat and have butter/sour cream on the potato. Again, soda pop or wine or even juice with dinner.

What about a dessert?

If you're pushing it with fat already like you say, you aren't going to be able to do all these things in one day but you have a lot of options here. Do keep in mind that the tiny amounts of protein and fat in fruits and veg, even potatoes, do not count. I suspect that if you dont' count the small amounts of fat in the salad and potato you'll find you have more fat to "spend" than you think.

I'm new to this site, but have found the theories interesting. I've been doing a pretty decent LE diet for the past 4-6 weeks. However, today on O day, have had a slice of hearty pizza for lunch. Just one and the only thing I've eaten today. Curious to hear if one bad meal can affect the day of ovulation or is it more of an overall LE diet thats more affective?

Thanks.

If doing anything for one day could affect a sway, we'd only do diet for one day! OUr data indicates doing diet 6+ weeks is acceptably effective, 12+ has best results, and 2-4 weeks has not been very effective. Given all that, it's impossible that one day of diet could do anything at all.

Pizza is actually a great LE Diet food (even if hearty) I bet if you found out the cal, protein, fat content you are still well within LE Diet limits!

I am feeling a bit overwhelmed. I read on a post somewhere here that you should not eat carbs and protein together to prevent a steady high blood sugar level for ttc pink? Another place I saw not to eat sugar and protein together? But if I’m skipping breakfast and only eating lunch and dinner without snacking, how can I get the minimum amounts of protein, fat and calories for the day without eating these things together? [emoji30] If this is necessary, are there some meal options I should switch to? Even rice by itself has carbs and protein. TIA[emoji177]
