There's another discussion going on right now about patients losing too much weight and wanting to put some back on. Dr. Brizman has said that, yes, the weight does come back on when your body is in a more balanced state. 

Hi all,

I hope everyone is feeling great.

My sister has just confirmed that her wedding is to take place on a cruise next January. Has anyone attended a cruise while on Dr. Brizman's protocol? I'm going to call tomorrow about bringing my own water, food accommodations, etc., but any help you can provide here would be very much appreciated.

Thanks!

Lauren

I've been reading past posts and people reference so-called "monthly calls." Do these still happen? If so, how can I get in on them!?

I'm in my 5th month of treatment and I'm struggling to try and put some weight back on.

I started out at 54kg (120lbs) and then dropped to 48.5kg (107lb) in the first 2 months.. now in the last month I've lost even more weight and today I'm weighing in at 47kg (102lb!)

I'm so skinny and my butt has disappeared completely.. I feel like I have the body of a child. I hate it :(

Great podcast on KCRW.

Dear all,

How is everyone doing? I hope that everyone is making progress. I have been reading the success stories but would love to hear from people in treatment now how some symptoms have disappeared - even tiny ones! Looking for some inspiration. For my part, I have had a tiny improvement in my head pain - it's still debilitating but not quite as debilitating as it was. Progress indeed for me! Eyes are still weirdly affected but I guess you can't have everything at once.

Just curious... is anyone else experiencing migraine headaches with this heat wave?  I live in San Diego where the typical weather is 75.  Today's its been 91 with 74% humidity.  The humidity causes migraines for me.  I'm curious to know if I'm the only one with this issue??  If no, what do you do to help alleviate this?

I'm wondering if anyone has a recipe for making yeast-less spelt or kamut (or any other approved grain) bread in the bread machine? I prefer spelt, though, only because it's more readily available at the store.

If you could include the recipe as well as the process, that'd be great (I'm a bread machine newbie, so I'll need specifics on what type of setting to put it on).

Thanks!

Oh boy- I am about to leave my vacation 4 days short because it just isn't good. I haven't felt well the entire time and to top it off the kids have had vague stomach things going on too. Anyway a few sort of funny things (at least to me)

1. Yesterday I saw a girl with a shirt that said "Ill" I think it is a hip hop philly thing but that cracked me up thinking that I should wear that shirt then maybe I'd get some sympathy for this invisible illness!
