@Vasi Smith Thanks Vasi. I have been struggling for YEARS with gut issues and your Thrive group and Dr. Seaver just fell into my awareness a couple of days ago. I feel led to pursue another go at trying to fix this. Every day is another episode and I'm swollen like I'm 6 months pregnant...permanently now. So...I appreciate this resource and what you are offering here. Thank you!

@Vasi Smith I tried the fasting today, after your talk last night. I went 18 hrs and felt good all day. I had done this before about 5 years ago and today reminded me how easy it was. It also reminded me that I don't need to eat so much. I also ate dinner earlier, trying for the 3 hr break before bed (I usually eat MUCH later) and I brushed my teeth early to avoid snack temptations. It is just one day of changes, but they feel hopeful, and my gut has been quieter than it has been all week!
