First off I want to say welcome to Kbirdmom, glad you found us we will take good care of you here on the Releana site.....Margie has help so many who are doing the shots and drops but since our protocol is a little different we started a thread for just Releana users...any questions let us know! also no coconut oil during p2 you can use it on your skin but not to cook your food....

Ok deb130 I think the cottage cheese It's not on protocol... let's see what the others say who are on Releana that may be you stalling you... we can have egg whites but no cheese Maybe try some red meat it has not stalled me at all like some have said I usually have it with Asparagus also we can mix our vegey's so you can have more than one at a time as long as it's 3.5 ozs maybe mixing the vegey's will give more flavor and not be boring....Garlic i use it on everything... do you like shrimp check earlier on this link and i think i posted a few recipes I did all very simple also on the old thread I'll go back and copy and paste them... also we can have any white fish they all taste alittle different so maybe try tilapia very mild flavor anyway hope this helps... I know it's important to eat we need those 500 cals so If tou need more Ideas let me know ....and I use the Walden Farms dressings I'm not haveing a problem with stalling from them i average .68 lb a day... I think we all start to think about other foods at about this time I was dreaming about being on P3 today and figureing out what i'll beable to have Stick with it, your doing great

anyway hope that helps

I work with my boss tomorrow oh joy!

well I'm on day 38 so we'll see whar happens this flu is going around and i normally doen't get it at least not instestinal type i'm going to take a some airborne just to make sure I ward off the germ monsters....i've also been straying my isamune, 3 strays in the morning it's colostrum based no sugar builds immune system

i don't know what the releana company says about cottage cheese, but here is what Dr. S. says:

Strict vegetarians such as orthodox Hindus present a special problem, because milk and curds are the only animal protein they will eat. To supply them with sufficient protein of animal origin they must drink 500 cc. of skimmed milk per day, though part of this ration can be taken as curds. As far as fruit, vegetables and starch are concerned, their diet is the same as that of non-vegetarians; they cannot be allowed their usual intake of vegetable proteins from leguminous plants such as beans or from wheat or nuts, nor can they have their customary rice. In spite of these severe restrictions, their average loss is about half that of non-vegetarians, presumably owing to the sugar content of the milk.

Destiller Isamune is a product I take to build my immune system is part of the program I was on with the shakes i 've used it for the last 3 years and usally double up during the flu season so i don"t get sick....Knock on wood I rarely get sick and if I do homiopathics(sp) meds work no antibiotics i'll tell you more about them next time we talk....

ok going to wash the color out hope it's not green OMG!

As far as I know, dairy is def not allowed on this protocol...except one teaspoon of skim milk (and I SO don't understand the point of having that). First, it's not good for your digestion - even if you're not on this protocol. So, it's possible that it's not working well with your body.

I also suggest eating red meat. I think it is much more tastey than chicken or fish - even with seasoning. I buy lean steak and as long as I don't overcook it, it is great for flavor. I was just eating chicken at first and, when I started eating red meat, it was so much better. Also, if you're not eating grilled chicken (just the soup) I would recommend that too. I use this great 20 herb seasoning from Trader Joe's and I eat it with grape tomatoes(very sweet) and use Trader Joe's balsamic vinegar (which almost tastes like I'm cheating because it, too, is very sweet)

But, I would definitely suggest stoping the the cottage cheese.
