[QUOTE="Josie, post: 417379, member: 1792"] My daughter was very oppositional when we tried the girlfriend/CF diet, but she didn't like the way she felt so angry and out of control. I told her we needed to try it to see if it helped and then I emphasized all the treats she could still have. We did the girlfriend part first, so that meant she could have ice cream, candy, and soda. I let her have whatever she wanted that was on the diet so that she wouldn't cheat and ruin my test. I felt so much better myself that I was convinced it would work for A. And I had to fix the food anyway for B and myself, so it was easy enough to make A's meals, too. Even husband ate it. Without my own experience, it would be hard to do because it is a lot of work at first, and it seems unlikely to work. I only have to do the girlfriend part to feel better so you might be able to get by with one or the other. My girls both have to do both. I still remember A, after a while on the diet, saying in her most defiant voice, "I am only doing the diet until I am 18!" Works for me. LOL [/QUOTE]
