The 21 Day Food Elimination Fix!

Food Elimination Guidelines

Why do a 21-day Food Elimination?

  • To set up enzymes for fat burning
  • To improve detoxification
  • To lower antibodies to possible food sensitivities
  • To lower inflammation

What can I eat and drink?

  • Water
  • Unlimited animal protein (every meal)
  • Unlimited cruciferous vegetables (every meal)
  • Increase healthy fats with every meal (coconut oil, any kind of nut (except peanuts),organic butter, olive oil, etc.)
  • Never be hungry, eat!

In order for the elimination diet to be successful you must avoid:

  • Dairy
  • Eggs
  • Gluten
  • Wheat
  • Beans
  • Fruit
  • Any food you consume more than 3-4 times per week
  • Corn
  • Any Alcohol
  • Rice
  • Soy Products
  • Potatoes
  • Coffee

Expectations:

Some people find the food elimination to be very easy and experience no reaction. Most people experience withdrawals, headaches and/or diarrhea. This is a sign that detoxification is happening; push through it! My clients that have little issues during Boot Camp are the ones who have had a healthy diet in the past. The people that experience most symptoms are those eating fast food and partaking in an unhealthy lifestyle.

Post Boot Camp:

On day 22 (re-feed day) you may eat whatever you like, but write down everything you consume. Please take note on how you feel over the next 24 hours (ex: achy joints, diarrhea, headaches, sinus issues). After day 22, Food Elimination guidelines begin again with one re- feed MEAL every 5-7 days (use healthy carb selections), but feel free to re-introduce 1-2 servings of thin-skin fruit and eggs (if tolerant). The re-feed meal will lead to more fat loss due to raising the fat burning hormone, leptin once per week to refuel muscle. Glycogen level is supposed to be at 70%, when depleted its usually at 50-60%. After re-feed = 120% for a short period, so scale weight increases 1 day, but drops again by day 3. Muscle gets harder/more condensed by glucose entering muscle cell. Carbs are earned; the leaner you become the more your body can handle them without being stored as fat. So, the leaner you get the more frequently I suggest a re-feed meal.
