[tidus]

Have you started the process of elimination yet?

this week i’ve started him on everything exactly on the meal plan but only using salt and pepper and only sauses are ketchup mustard and hot sauce nothing else that’s not on the plan goes into his mouth. and im gonna see how he’s feeling and if it persists im going to start eliminating food because then i know thats the issue

[tidus]

What if any drugs / supplements are being used

supplements fish oil, magnesium, vitamin c, milti vitamin, 10g creatine, 10 g glutamine, 2 soft gel peppermint oil. but no drugs.

[tidus]

Does he notice it at any meal in particular, does he consume any other sweetener? Has he shared any issues he’s experienced in the past or is this new?

and it’s just throughout the day even when waking up and it’s not necessarily better or worse after certain meals so it’s really confusing me. and he’s not consuming any other sweeteners to my knowledge

Does he notice it at any meal in particular, does he consume any other sweetener? Has he shared any issues he’s experienced in the past or is this new?

it has been an issue for a minute which is why we changed things on the meal plan pretty significantly.

Hi mate. How many meals a day do you have him on? Are they higher volume during his diet phase?

Over the next week or so here’s some things you could try if he hasn’t already…

Chewing food slowly without rushing.

Cut out fizzy pop/energy drinks.

Don’t lay or sit around after meals, go and do some of his daily step count.

Don’t guzzle fluids/whey shakes.

If he uses whey shakes, have him use isolate only.

Leave it at least an hour after his pre-gym meal before he trains.

Reduce caffeine or stim pre-workouts.

i currently have him on four meals a day. the food volume isn’t really anything abnormal.

And with chewing food it’s already been addressed, same thing with swallowing liquids.

i believe he is walking after some meals i can address and insure it’s after every one.

And i cut out any carbonation, and with whey i just completely got him off of it so we can try to eliminate things causing and issue.

and currently took him off his pre workout, and i think im going to push back the amount of time from when he finishes his pre workout meal until he steps into the gym.

And add more fruits and veggies to your diet.

So atm the solution imo would be

:

No free meal until it is solved

Remove the fruit juice and sugar cereals and honey etc

Add more raw fruits and veggies

And space your meals enought between them 3,5h if needed

And see if after few days/week it’s gone

what specific fruit and veg do you recommend

[tidus]

What’s your diet look like please

and i’ve been getting bloated after every meal it just kind of came out of no where it really started about two weeks ago after a larger off plan meal but i’ve had such before and was never an issue. and i drink about a gallon and a half a day. and i take fish oil d3 with meal one and with my last meal i have magnesium glycinate with melatonin. and i have a fair amount of sweeters but nothing out of the normal for me.[/quote]
and i’ve been having off plan meals every four days as i just came out of a deficit and have kept the frequency the same. but right now im not having any off plan meals until further notice until i can figure out this issue as it’s very frustrating and effecting everything in my life to be honest.

That’s a hard one because essentially for these feelings to go, you likely just need to do it more often so eventually it just becomes normal, it is extreme to be passing out but is like hilly said not unheard of, so I guess my next question would be, are you doing this shortly after a meal already & are you well hydrated.. then also were you doing this seated & in a relaxed state?

i completely agree i know i will get better with time but typically it’s before a meal sometimes after and my water intake is always consistent and pinning at around the same time everytime. But i have thought about doing it seated though thats a good idea to just further be able to calm myself

[tidus]

The nervousness is quite common but especially in the earlier stages of use however the passing out is pretty extreme but not unheard of so you need to be very careful here.

what length of needle are you using ?

i’m using a quarter inch (0.635 cm)

[tidus]

Hey Luke, on days where your food is at baseline how do you find the nausea? Also when you’re having these refeeds what meals are you having? Is it the same food as baseline but just higher carb?

i just get food where ever to be honest just like a complete off plan meal but at baseline i feel fine right now.

[tidus]
