Day 1 again! Hi guys, I slipped off the wagon over christmas and didn't come back to Harcombe, I've been following a low GI diet which was good and easy to follow but slipped up a few times lately with junk & sweets and my candida (thrush) has come back with a passion and is really getting me...

Progress Update Well apart from a couple of little weekend slipups, I've stuck to THD for nearly a month and feel pretty good. Last time I weighed I was 9st 8 so still want to lose the last lb but I'm just happy to not be gaining & not feeling hungry at all. I never used to be able to get to...

Today I decided to move into Phase 2 to get some variety in my food as I was getting bored after 9 days on P1. I bought some gammon without checking the label (stupid error on my part) and it has got dextrose in it. Have eaten it anyway as didn't want to waste it and I'm sure the dextrose wasn't...

Well done so far, the first 3 days are supposedly the hardest (although I've found later days to prove more challenging). I know what you mean about sugar in everything. Roast chicken has brown sugar and dextrose in it. Of all the packets of ham in the shops, 99% of them have got sugar in some...

I'm now on day 10, still on phase 1. I was going to weight myself today but I forgot so I will have to do it tomorrow. My food diary for this week: Day 7 B: usual L: Leftover butternut squash curry with 50g brown rice D: Chicken & veg stir fry Day 8 B: usual L: leftover stir fry with 50g brown...

Finished 5 days of phase 1 I've now completed 6 days of phase 1 but am sticking with it as don't think I'm over my symptoms or cravings yet. Day 4 we went out for drinks with friends in the evening so OH got drunk. I just had soda water with slices of lime in and drove us home (via the kebab...

Day 3 went ok. Still getting a bit hungry before lunch but I seem to be able to manage. Drank a lot of cranberry teas yesterday as it was really cold and I needed warming up. Only problem I had was I felt the thrush coming back with a vengence last night, I'm hoping this is due to the candida...

I forgot to weigh myself yesterday so I did it this morning and was disappointed to see I'm back to 10st. I really want to get back to 9st7 so 7lbs to go. Today has been a bit harder because I'm not feeling very well (was coming down with something before I started this so don't think its...

Hi everyone. :wavey: I'm new to this thread. I'm starting Phase 1 today. I suffer really badly from recurrent thrush and have lots of cravings so I'm choosing the Harcombe Diet to try and help those things as well as to lose a bit of weight. Only want to lose about 1/2 stone. Have tried lots of...
