Hi all I hope you have had a good week, and all well and making your way through intro. This week for us we will be moving to stage 4. We haven't included a lot of nuts so far, we may do more this week. We know that Ben has had a bit of a problem with nuts so we are aiming to take it slow with that one. However I am really looking forward to adding Juice to menu.
Foods allowed on stage 4
* Meat stock
* Fish stock
* Organ meat - liver should be included at least once a week.
* Well boiled veggies, onions, garlic, carrots, broccoli, leeks, cauliflower, courgettes, zucchini, squash, pumpkin, Asparagus, beetroot, Eggplant, Kale, Spinach, Tomatoes, anything on the allowed list that is not too fiberous.
* Boiled meats
* Mineral Salt and Pepper
* sauerkraut juice
* Ginger root - for fresh herbal tea
* Honey - Raw, only a small amount in herbal tea.
* Lemon - only a small piece in warm water as morning drink
* Apple Cider Vinegar for bone broth, and in the morning glass of water to aid in digestion.
* homemade Ghee
* Homemade Yoghurt - if tolerated
* Egg yokes, soft boiled eggs, pouched eggs.
* Fermented veggies.
* Fermented fish.
* Fresh herbs.
* Scrambled eggs
* Activated Nuts
* Nut Pancakes
* Start adding Olive oil
* Grilled and roasted Meats.
* Introducing freshly pressed juices, starting with Carrot juice, then try celery, cabbage, lettuce, and fresh mint leaves.
* A GAPS milk shake - but adding yoghurt to juice.
* Baking Bread with Nuts and or seeds.
My plan for this week will be to start the morning with Veggie juice, and add some minerals to it. Starting with Carrot juice and building up to including more veggies. Next week we will aim to add a little fruit. The plan is also to maintain the good habits that we have been building into our lives, like having adding ferments to each meal, and making sure that we are still having broth with each meal. Both of these tend to be the first to go when times get stressed or busy, but they are some of the most important parts of the diet. So make sure to keep them up.

The meals are pretty much that same. A special not for those that need to continue to loose weight. The closer to stay to the first two - three stages the more you will continue to loose a faster rate. You will still continue to loose (if needed) as you move forward but it will be slower.
