Last question! I was attempting this diet while I also breastfeed- in one day I’ve noticed a major dip in my milk supply. I assumed this would be fine to do but have you heard this happen before? Should I not do this diet while breastfeeding?

  Ann Louise only recommends doing phase 3 of the Fat Flush while breastfeeding. You need enough energy to produce milk. This plan will not give you enough.

  Why would you diet while your body is needing to produce milk? That immediately says bad idea to me! Your body automatically burns fat while breastfeeding!!

Currently I’m on Prednisone for my asthma which is creating extreme hunger. After researching and reintroducing myself to Fat Flush, I bought myself some of the essentials to help me through (Fat Flush water and this soup) I dropped 6 lbs in a week so far and that is not even following the program religiously.
I have added more carbs than is recommended here in the form of healthy fruits and vegetables and lower sodium foods.
My son, who is recovering from a severe bout of pneumonia this past winter, and has put on some weight due to his not being as physically active as usual, has decided he is on board with this as well.
Some years ago I had done the Fat Flush water throughout the day without completely following the eating plan and noticed a significant difference in how my pants fit after a two week period. Cellulite diminished and I had definitely lost inches. I have no idea why I never continued .. it’s not hard to drink the water as a daily ritual.
Cannot find my FF book so, I’m going to order a series of books later today.

Hello,
I am currently on day 2 of the fat flush soup diet, I have done it before… however, this time every time I eat the soup I am extremely bloated and my stomach hurts. I’m sure I have a sensitivity to something in it. I feel like I should stop eating it if it is making me feel sick, could I finish the remainder of the time with eating a 5 oz lean protein and vegetables? Thank you!

I think it depends on how old the baby is and how often they breastfeed. My little one is almost a year so she eats 3 meals a day plus a few snacks. She still breastfeeds first thing in the morning, maybe 2 times during the day, and at night. That being said I am able to “diet”, but I make sure to eat plenty of fruits and veggies and drink plenty of water.

I bought all the ingredients today to make a double batch of the soup. I got a great deal on rotisserie chickens at the grocery store-lemon pepper,I believe.
I intended to remove the skin from the chicken before I added it to the pot. Is pre-cooked rotisserie chicken an acceptable change to the recipe instead of starting with raw meat?

Do you have to eat 3 cups? One cup is plenty filling for me, for lunch at least. I might be able to do 3 cups for dinner.
Also, the recipe in Women’s World (2020) is a bit different and calls for Daikon Radishes, which I could not find. I substituted turnips (root) and added some Kale.
Reply
- Team ALGon February 24, 2020 at 2:40 pm
  Christine,
  Eat enough soup to stay satisfied. You can use regular radish (red round ones) instead of the Daikon radishes. Turnips and radishes are in the same family but they have less protein and more carbs than the red round radishes.

  Janet, You can help lower your creatine by eating less red meat, even dairy and eggs and eating more fiber in fruit, whole grains, beans and lots of veggies. Food, including protein is digested in your stomach. To help ensure more complete digestion, you can take a digestive enzyme like Digesta-Key. https://unikeyhealth.com/products/digesta-key
