I thought those of us fighting Candida should have a weekly check in. Then we can see what is working for others.

I started Atkins Nov 3rd. Today is the end of 4 weeks.
I have been consuming small amounts of vinegar, mayo and cheese.

I have started alternating taking Yeast-Cleanse by Solaray and Bee Propolis as well as drinking tea tree tea (Melaleuca).

By the 2nd day I have headaches and sinus pain (am a chronic sinus sufferer, as well as allergies, asthma, arthritis, bad PMS).
That lasted about a week.

By day 12, the urgent, going to be graphic now...watery diahhrea started. And that lasted about a week. I assume that is the yeast coming out. It recently started up again mildly...I suppose it will take a long time for it to all come out.

Now, weight loss : 6.2 lbs in 4 weeks.....4 of it the first week, 0.5 the 2nd week, and 1.2 the third....this past week I have stayed the same. (I did "cheat" last Sunday and had a caesar (drink) with clamato juice and vodka.

But what I am happy with is the inches.
Lost 2 " off my bust
3" from my waist
2" from hips.

I hope more of you check in so we can get ideas for other tips and tricks to really get rid of this nasty yeast!!!
