I have been on the diet for over 8 months. I cook all my vegetables. Raw veggies don't agree with me. As far as fruits, I use to peel them, but I am able to eat the skins now. Sample Meal (This is what I had today) Breakfast - 1 tablespoon of acacia in water Oatmeal with blue berries Peppermint tea
Snack - Pretzels
Lunch - Hunan Chicken. They know me at the Chinese restaurant and fix it for me the way I need it. Steamed rice, chicken, "cooked" broccoli, carrots. Peach halves for dessert. Tension tammer tea
Snack - Pretzels
Dinner - Homemade Chicken Vegetable soup Sliced apple Peppermint tea
Snack before Bed - (haven't had this yet) Fruit Smoothie made with soy milk, 1 tablespoon of acacia, 1 tablespoon of ground flaxseed, 1 banana, honey to taste, & frozen mixed fruits
Someone suggested recently to start adding IF & fruit using baby food. I think this is a very good idea. Think of this diet as if you are a new baby being introduced to new foods. Cooked and pureed at first then with chunks, etc.
I would not give your daughter cheese or cow's milk. Dairy products are a trigger and cheese can be very constipating. For milk, try soy, almond, or rice milk.
Good luck, I applaud you for helping you daughter.
