all?

What have you been eating?

Are you drinking plenty of fluids to keep up your output?

Don't forget, you can eat larger quantities and more frequently. I spent

entirely too long eating roast pork, roast beef, steamed zucchini, and

soft boiled eggs... but I was eating every 2-3 hours!

Would you clarify the " plenty of fluids to keep up my output. " I do seem pretty

thirsty but also tend to be good at getting standard amounts of H2O.

I have been eating scrambled eggs with legal cheese in the a.m., sometimes with

spinach & /or mushrooms. Later, fruit--a variety, like a fresh fruit salad. Hand

full of cashews. Chicken with veggies, more fruit.

A LaraBar. Some cheese with maybe sliced apple. SCD yogurt with fruit, crushed

pecans and honey. Coffee. Grape juice. Wine. Occasional vodka.

And then I made the SCD brownies with beet and carrot, figured it would help

with constipation. I eat those with plenty of butter. (Or maybe I don't have

constipation after all, perhaps my body just uses it all up!)

I think OJ is aggravating me right now, tomato sauce (I made SCD legal homemade

into a bolognese) seemed to make a bad flare, lots of blood after that.

But then again, the blood seems random and regular.

I don't know if SCD is going to work for me since blood is the most regular

symptom I have, and that seems largely unchanged. That said, it has just been a

week.

What do you think? (I have the metabolism of a hummingbird and with the nursing,

well, weight seems to be falling off me). I always had the " stomach of iron " ,

could eat anything, never gain significant weight.

The only other thing I am taking is L-Glutamine, supposedly has nothing else in

it, just the amino acid.

with much appreciation,
