  1. I've heard of that lab before--my chiropractor once suggested I get some of their tests. I never did that though--probably should have. I did just go through all those type of tests though. I had the seven little vials to mix my pooh in (came back negative). In addition to that I had a bucket I had to fill (to test for C.Diff I believe--not sure what...
  2. Thanks Corinne and Nancy and Rachel! I may turn into a cook yet, lol I'm making soup now, no skin though, but looks like there's plenty of fat since I'm using thighs only. I am having it for breakfast and I can't wait, lol. I am so hungry since starting SCD and I'm eating a good amount of food too. I woke up at 11:15 last night and couldn't get back...
  3. It makes sense to me.
  4. Carole we are kindred spirits, lol! Dani - gosh I don't have any advice...I'm actually having just the opposite problem, lol. Before starting SCD I was almost C'd, now that I've started I've been going at least 2-3 times a day. Makes me think I should not add any new things for a couple of days. I have a small crock pot which I may try making...
  5. Yep, you're right. I re-read chapters 9 and 10 last night and sure enough weak coffee is okay. It was specifically decaf stuff and intant coffee she says isn't good because of the processing. I think I've been illegal yesterday especially...I had two cups of decaf tea. Grrr.
  6. Corinne your soup sounds great and easy enough for someone like me to make, lol! I may try that this evening...I'm just about over ground beef and carrots. Nancy - Ha! I watched him last night...it was a show on pot roast and it actually looked like it was almost completely legal for SCD...he used canned tomatoe juice! I've never seen that before...
  7. I love Alton Brown...I used to watch him all the time...learned how to make my Irish Oats (which I can't eat now, lol) from him. I stopped watching recently because they were all shows I'd seen before (and also because I never thought I'd have to cook, lol)...maybel I'll start watching him again....maybe I'll even mosey on over to his website. Hum, maybe...
  8. Very crazy! My mom will be shocked, when, in a few months I can tell her I made homemade chicken soup, lol.
  9. I just started yesterday...so far so good, lol. I've already had to invent a way to make my cooked carrots (never one of my favorite dishes) palletable, lol.
  10. Eagerly awaiting replies to this, lol. I have always done just what you described...the easiest thing possible. Open a can of broth and throw in some chicken. I am no cook! My mom used to boil her chicken in a pot of water and that's how she got the broth, but I have no clue as to how long one cooks it, or how much, lol. Then somehow she threw in her...
  11. Here's the link to the page where it describes adding food back: Open Original Shared Link
  12. Wow, maybe it was specific to decaf and instant because of the processes involved. Wow...course I still can't drink it without my half-n-half (or even Silk), lol.
  13. Lorka - I'm not sure if there are any vegetarians currently doing SCD...sorry. Dani - From what I've heard it really can take 3 days for that food to work its way entirely through...I can sometime react right away to something but other times I don't. I don't think I'd drink the grape juice...it may be "good" but there may also be a bit of bacteria in...
  14. Lorka, you're right, in the book she says no coffee not even decaf. Fortunately for me I haven't been drinking coffee since I found out I was casein intolerant...can't have coffee without my half-n-half, lol...there's just no point. Interestingly I talked to a friend who I haven't talke to in a long time and as we were catching up I was explaining...
  15. Ha! I could go for some carrot cake right now, lol. Well, I started the SCD today. My breakfast wasn't legal, but after that, my testing was done, so I decided I would just finish the day out. I'm about to go make my second ground beef/carrot dinner, lol. I am not fond of cooked carrots so this should be interesting. I may actually try to put a bit of...
  16. So I bought 3 big bags of carrots today, lol. Also bought two huge packages of organic ground beef. I should be able to start this by Monday at the latest.
  17. I just think the rotation helps to keep the diet varied enough so that those who are sort of "predisposed" to intolerances/allergies/etc can recognize food groups and problem foods etc. If you only eat something (or a family) every 4 days, it becomes a little easier to know what bothers you. I don't think the majority of people have to worry about it at...
  18. Here it is...it's broken up into days following a 4-day rotation. Note: I have not removed the milk products, and of course if you know you're sensitive to something I wouldn't eat it...but this would be a good way to see what items are in that same "family" to catch other things you might be eating: Day 1 Proteins/Meat/Fish/Fowl Cornish hen Crab...
  19. Okay, I'll revise it later so it can be posted here for all to see. It was taken from a book called the Yeast Connection. There is an official website, but I can't remember if the rotation is posted there. The foods are grouped together by families so you wouldn't want to borrow from another day. Any foods that are similar but not part of the same families...
  20. I have a chart done up in Word but it's in table format so I can't post it here. I took it directly out of a book that rotated food groups. If you want me to I can try to revise it to post here or I can email it to you. It was originally based on a anti-candida rotation diet. It was naturally low in gluten, but it does have some milk items listed...you...
  21. Yep, I bought some goat milk and took a big sip and nearly spit it out, lol. I did like the goat milk yogurt for some reason though--although to be honest I did add DaVinci sugar free syrup to it and nuts and/or sunflower seeds, so maybe that's why.
  22. Wow, that's amazing!
  23. Corinne, that's interesting because I was following a rotation diet and their theory was that it takes about 3-4 days for most food to go through our systems. Adding to the weight issue...I did a low carb diet for a few years...I ate lots of nuts and nut butters, meats and veggies and a little bit of fruit here and there. I actually ate quite a bit of...
  24. An opinion regarding the allergy testing...the allergist I see now told me that positives are sometimes false positives, but that the negatives would be negative. When I had my testing done (with a different doctor--I'm considering having testing done again with this doctor since my other test was about 3 years ago), I only showed slight reactions to 4 foods...
  25. Mine is below and a little to the left usually. Feels like someone just poked a stick in there and left it.
