Looking good! I’m going to buy Clean and Lean: 30 days 30 foods by Dr Ian Smith. Looks interesting. My whole life I’ve done my own clean eating but I don’t have it in me to do it now. I need a regiment.

It’s different for everyone. At first it feels like punishment to many of us because lets face it, it’s effing hard at first but it gets better and easier. Remember why youre quitting, focus on what you can gain vs what you’re “missing” because really you’re not “missing” anything but a lifetime of misery using. Congrats on your day 7, keep it up!!

TY TY TY Mandi for sharing your story. I have a friend that is a heavy drinker and she developed a similar rash of in ger face and torso. She’s had it
For over 2 months and had tryed steroids, fungal creams and antibiotics with no improvements. DR.'s diagnosted her with an auto immune disorder. What worked for you besides quitting the drinking?
A candida diet with probiotics and vitamins daily, have her google it! It’s pretty strict but ommmgggg it is AMAZING the difference she will feel right away! I also use Cetaphil face wash and lotion, that helped also. Nothing else works! Does she notice she is sugar sensitive? It’s a big time trigger.

Mandi TY will pass the info on to my friend. Do you have a particule brand of probiotics that you’re partcularly fond of?
I’m not sure where you are located but I buy mine at my local healthfood store. I get the strongest refrigerated probiotics they have at first for serious gut repairs and then in a month or two I go back to lower bacteria strain refrigerated probiotics for maintainence. 
I hope she finds some relief, I know how miserable it all feels!
