What other side effects from the diet did you notice?

I ordered some ModifyHealth meals recently on sale and here are some tips from Monash (who created the diet) about eating out:

I am on it - currently working on reintroducing foods. It’s not the most fun but it has helped a lot of my symptoms which has encouraged me to continue. I agree with the earlier statement about eating out being tough. While more expensive I found it easier to purchase some approved sauces, seasonings, etc. which has also helped with my consistency.

Just look at the diet

There is no fiber in the diet

My doctor said it cause it I had horrible hemoroids and now I get them all the time

Cymbalta

That’s interesting because I’m on it to solve that issue

I did it. I just got extremely constipated so just be care and drink lots of water

Per direction

I’m going to try it for 3 weeks and then add back in stuff according to observations

I’ve been on it before and I would like to add positivity by saying it’s not the worse diet! You can make your own sauces and have decent meals. It ended up not being the diet for me but once you get through the first two weeks it becomes pretty easy. Just be careful hanging out with friends or family who like to go out to eat. There will be options for you but it’s harder to follow through with outside influences.

Got off what meds?

I lost 40 pounds. Im 105 now

I didn't lose weight until i got off my meds

I was on it for 6 weeks. I had hemoroids from it so becareful and watch for that
