Hi I havent started this diet yet becuse I am still very confused with this thing.
Like my basicly will breakout to what ever I put on it and I am jest starting to break ou really badly I always used to have such clear skin
So I dont know what to wash my hair with because I never know what shamboo might irritate my skin and cause acne.Dont know what to wash my face with becuse it might dry-out or irritate my skin thus creating acne.
And have no Idea what to use as a moistureizer because I have read so many artical about how oil based product clog pores or create more bacteria or iritate skin or who freaking knows what next. I am going out of my mind!!
dont use any moisturizer or any topical creams or supplements. only eat natural fruits,, vegetable-fruits and fish, raw. also, try to only wash your face at max twice a day, when you get up and go to bed.
if i ever find a moisturizer that doesnt irritate my skin i will call it a miracle and thank god.
besides, i only use moisturizers when my skin is actually dry, which rarely occurs. Exceptions being after a dry snowboarding night or if im outside in the wind during winter for an extended period.
Y when ever I wash my face with anything it is ether to shiny to flakey and dry and the if I moisturize it jest a little tiny bit it get hella oily ..
I hate my skin
thats why i only wash my face twice a day with tap water. though it is recommended that you use demineralized water in a spray bottle, but tap water doesnt effect me noticebly. So ya, dont use cleansers or moisturizers and only use water. this diet needs everything to be natural to really work well.

The acne prone is skin is known to be both oily and dry, as the skin desperately tries to counteract the dryness that is the result of retaining water from the outer skin in the true skin, but the extra oil can never do the trick.
To eliminate that problem you 'just' need to eliminate the cause of acne. by doing this diet the acne is eliminated and your skin will get smooth and even (not too dry, not oily) again.
Ok the diet is my final desion I am jest really conserned about being hungrey all the time does that mean I will have to eat alot of fat like olive oil on salads and on fruit and stuff.
And from reading alot of the threads I take it protien should really be taken down a notch because its effect on acne?
I am already good with having no salt or spices
You have to start learning the difference between hungry because you need energy and "hungry" because your stomach doesn't feel full enough. In the first case you just have to eat more often. In the latter case you are fine.
Yes, protein can induce acne, but if you don't have acne now, you don't have to be too careful.
Ya I guess I can take the hunger part on the count I have been struggling with anorexia for 3 years now and have probobly gone through and got through way harder hunger stages then this
Ya I am going to be very careful with protien have never had acne on my cheeks and so much on my t zone I am going out of my mind!
I want to go out again with out feeling everyone is staring at all theses pimples!!
