Re: Re: going for it - update

Just my two cents, but I would wait atleast 4 - 5 days before introducing

anything else. That way you will be able to tell what he can tolerate with

enzymes alone. Good Luck and way to go!!

to keep up better when I was part-time, but I'm just exhausted now. I

really hope and pray the enzymes can help us eat some less " high

maintenance " foods. Although, I agree...we have learned a lot about

healthy eating in the last year and a half.

As for the experiment...we went a little crazy. Over the course of

the day he had wafers, spaghetti, a few crackers, and vanilla ice

cream as well as his usually SCD foods. 1Pep/1ZP at each meal/snack.

So far, so good. He pooped last night and twice today. All was well.

Also no negative behaviors and sleep is still good.

I'm in complete shock. I've been waiting for melt down or blow out or

something! I want to sing for joy, but am just so reserved about what

might happen. We're going to continue with a few infractions a day

and just see. I'll keep the updates coming:)
