Hi Isabel,
teething babies can be extremely tiring – and frustrating. My girl got a gift from a friend – a toy that had a handle in one end and a rubbery chewing part in the other, which vibrated when she chewed on it. Yup, had a sort of built in massage function that she really appreciated, even long before she got the hang of activating the vibrations herself. She also seemed to like chewing on a little wash cloth that we would freeze when damp so that it would be cold and nice to chew on. Well, those are my best teething tricks. Best of luck!

Hi Isabel
Try a homeopathic gel or powder specifically for teething babies. You just rub either on the gums. It helps to ease the pain for them, is non-toxic and easy to administer. I’m in Australia and these are readily available here and I’m sure they must also be available in the US – try your local health food store. In fact, homeopathics are great for babies and children for all sorts of problems like colic, infections, worms and many more health issues.
Good luck,

If I don’t work out on a specific day do I still eat the “post work out meal”? THANK YOU!!

thanks

Isabel,
3 little words for teething – Hylands Teething Tablets. They are homeopathic and were a godsend with my 2 kiddos.
Also, thanks giving a bit more info on the meal plans.
Isabel,
Thank you for taking the time to help us all out! I always love your videos. I have a few questions for you…
1. Is coconut flour okay? I made a loaf of bread the other day and wasn\’t sure if it is DSP approved. Other ingredients in the bread are eggs, raw honey, salt, & baking powder.
2. Organic Chicken is BREAKING the bank! I can find affordable organic beef, nitrate free uncured bacon, local pasture organic eggs, and organic produce for a reasonable price. But organic chicken is extremely expensive! I did some research and found the \"best\", non organic, affordable, chicken available. Foster farms chickens. My question for you is, will eating chicken that isn\’t organic mess up my weight loss? Should i just cut chicken out of my diet?
Thank you Isabel!
Good morning— I have a question about the Post Workout snack. On the days I don’t work out, do I still eat what you have written or should I skip it?
Hello Isabel .
My name is Nilva I’m from Brasil live in England for 10 years now…… I love you material is realy good and easy to folow thankyou very much , wath I’m doing is the Protein Type. and is lovely not feeling hungree… I need to loose a large amount Kg97 and 168metros but I’m doing great …Thanks God bless you sorry about my Inglesh
Hylands teething tablets and NatraBio teething drops have worked wonders for our kids!! You can get both at most health food stores and online, but we can even get Hylands at our grocery store out here in CA. Good luck with the teething!
And thank you SO MUCH for putting these meal plans together!
Hey Georgianna,
Yes, skip the post workout snack and replace it with a snack with protein and low gi carbs.
Hey Tiffany,
1. This looks pretty good, just be aware of the calories in honey.
2. You would be better off in terms of overall health if you eat organic, but it will not affect your weight loss.
Hey Gabriela,
Yes we do. It’s called Comer Para Perder and you can get more info on it at http://www.comerparaperder.com.
Hi Isabel
I don’t have a broiler – is there another way I can cook the salmon. I don’t usually eat salmon so tips on cooking it is appreciated
thanks

Hi Isabel,
I am just starting your 7 day E-course im a little confused is 1 black tea alright in the morning? and does the meat & veggies that I consume have to be organic? & why??is it for weight loss reasons or just healthier?
do you have an exercise program that goes with the 7 day e course I have been on Vinces web site and his workout is amazing im all about the abs the only spot I have flab. Is there such a thing as overworking abs and with the changing of way you eat enough to burn the fat off the belly.Its very confusing because i think im reading too much info. on everybod but seem to want to stick with you because you are female and understand the body.
Hey Isabel
Happy New Year!
I was just wondering if you had a vegetarian version for the meal plan. I’m having a little trouble varying the protein choices as a vegetarian.
Hi Isabel,
Just wanted to let you know I started your plan off last Friday with the 6 week quick start plan. Got on the scale this morning and have lost 5 lbs. already. Never thought I would be eating vegetables in the morning or for a snack. The dressing is delicious. Was wondering if I can start the fish oil sooner than you say? I’ve taken fish oil before but would love to try the kind you use. Should I be using the protein with the quick start plan too? Please let me know when you get a chance. Your baby is really cute in the videos. How old is he? Hope the teething is getting better. My youngest is 16 months and he’s getting his molars in. Thanks for all the great advice.
Hello,
I recently bought your books. My question is to clarify a couple of suggestions in your book Quick Start Guide. You said that the serving sizes outlined for the 6wks are the “minimum” we should be eating. Well the portions are very filling and I want to know if it is ok if we don’t finish all of the meal as long as we are not hungry. Can I continue to munch on the snack throughout the 3hrs between meals?
Also you said that any breads, sweets,pastas would deter the results. Does that include potatoes?
Thanky you
Hi Isabel,
I’ve recently bought your Diet Solution plan and am loving its simplicity and how good I feel following it. Just a quick question: Are the meat portions (listed in the meal plans) measured raw or cooked?
Many thanks,

Hey Rachel,
Mostly all measurements are raw or uncooked.
Hey Liz,
You can bake the salmon. It will be a little less flaky than broiling it and might double the cooking time.
