  1. Right now and probably for a while, I'm going to stick to mostly natural things. I just want to get my system back in order before adding anything processed. (besides rice cakes!) But thanks for the info. I'm going to e-mail it to myself so I have it for when the time comes. I'm so excitied to have pasta again, even though this SCDiet has even taught...
  2. Well, I would say make sure that you wash the veggies reaaaaaaaalllly good and if you get them frozen, make sure there is nothing added to them, of course not even salt. I just went shopping yesterday to a small market and noticed all of their frozen veggies had at LEAST salt added to them. Some even with other ingredients! Also, what about fruit, with peels...
  3. I think you guys are right. The ingredients have things that you would think would be corn derived but it says corn free. But when we get symptoms back from using them, then there is something wrong with the picture. I'm not going to take any supplements anymore. At least for a few weeks. And Julie, that's a good idea about the straight cranberry juice...
  4. I just have to add my two cents from my experience. I agree so much that the candida is just a side effect or a symptom of something bigger. For the first time in almost two months, I am back to having fruit everyday, and a lot of it, and my symptoms are better than they were ON the SCDiet. I'm not saying that it doesn't work, because I KNOW it does for a...
  5. Okay, this is so confusing to me. Well, I took out all corn, as best as I could and my stomach is getting better everyday. I haven't had pain in my stomach or gas and I am (so far) tolerating everything that I eat. I'm eating lots of fruit, rice cakes, fish, meat and lots of fresh veggies that I'm washing EXTREMELY WELL and the fruit I'm eating is only in...
  6. Hi, Well, thanks to Rachel, I have figured out another cause for many (hopefully all) of my remaining symptoms. The most important one is my weird nerve/migrane headache is gone for the first time in a lonnnnnnng time, and it disappeared the first day that I took corn and everything derived from it out of my diet. But I have a question regarding vitamans...
  7. Same here!
  8. I used to get that ALL THE TIME before I went gluten free. Then, it went away but I noticed if I had something else that I was 'allergic' or intolerant to, I would get it, just not as bad. It's funny because I would get it sooooooooooooooooo BAD after excersizing or walking a lot (I live in NYC and in the summer, we walk EVERYWHERE because the subways are...
  9. I was doing SCD but was not able to get anywhere with it. I felt like the longer I've been on it, the more I couldn't have! Then I saw Rachel's post about corn allergies and sensitivities and looked at the list of things that are illegal. I thought about it and looked at my journal and realized that IT COULD BE my problem. Everyday, I was eating carrots...
  10. Yeah, I was looking for the completely plain cakes but they were out, so I looked at the lightly salted ones and it just says organic brown rice and sea salt. And so far so good. Maybe the honey that was in those rice cakes you tried was bad. I know I used to stay away from the carmal ones because for some reason, they didn't sit as well with me. My stomach...
  11. WOW! I just want to say WOW! I looked over my journal and every single day, I have carrots, and everytime I have eaten the carrots, (most, not all actually), I have problems after I have them. So I just went and bought some Lundberg rice cakes because I thought, what the hell! Well, I just ate like half the bag and no problems. Also, I've been eating things...
  12. Rachel, I'm wondering if I have a corn problem too. I am reacting to EVERYTHING EVERYTHING EVERYTHING! I'm like you with the honey. Everytime I try the honey, I get horrible problems. Also, when I first started the SCD, I was fine with the carrots (baby carrots) I was eating too, and now I can't eat them because they give me MAJOR digestive issues. But, like...
  13. Rachel, those little baby carrots have corn on them? And applesauce that just says 'apples' in it? Can you give me a list of all of things, just so I can see if I too need to eliminate that? I'm so desperate and scared. I'm really scared. what about salt that says naturally occuring iodine? what about if my supplements say 'corn free' does that mean...
  14. Hi everyone, Rachel, I'm so extremely happy for you. The fact that you gained 10lbs is amazing and is def. proof that your body is starting to work the way it should. I figured that cleanse wouldn't work when I read about all the other crap you have to buy with it. And I'm glad you reminded me that EVERYTHING will bother you when you eat something that...
  15. OKay, I just realized what this zapper was, and I can't afford that right now, for one and for two, it seems like a scam and I'm sick of being scammed. Also, I have to do this other clense program for a while first? I can't and won't pay for that stuff, did you Debbie?
  16. Debbie, please tell me more about this. I just went to your website and looked at it. I will def. give it a try. I had the goats yogurt on Friday and was okay at first, but later that night until now, I am sicker than anything and can't tolerate anything at all. Where did you hear about this? Could I get sick from this? Do you only do it once with four doses...
  17. Hi I'm also very interested about coconut milk. I'm on the SCD and can't have any sugar. I also can't have dairy due to a casein intolerance. Actually, even if I wasn't on the SCD I can't tolerate any sugar these days. So that wipes out almond milk or anything like that alternative. I've been hearing a lot about this coconut milk. In the ingredients though...
  18. Yeah, I guess I would call it tart. It was verrrrry tart! For example, did you ever have those white sugar sticks that comes with the pure sugar powder in different colors? Well, you know the taste that you would get after stick a bunch of that sugar in your mouth? That's what it tastes like. I'm kind of trying to wait on adding fruit back to my diet, but...
  19. Okay, as I'm reading this, Rachel, I'm thinking, what if this is the reason that I am still having some problems? It's interesting that vitamans have corn in them. When I first started the SCDiet, I wasn't taking any vitamans, and I felt like a million bucks, and the bloating was gone. Well, since after the intro. diet, I started back on the vitamans. And...
  20. I agree with both of you. I have been known to eat a whole jar of nut butter in a day too. When I love something (and I love most foods), I can just keep on going, and going and going......That probably is why our digestive systems are so messed up. Okay, well I made the goat yogurt and I tried a little bit this morning but it was SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO...
  21. Okay, thanks. So I can eat it without adding anything to it and it is still edible...? I hope I can tolerate it, considering I have the whole casein problem. But Donna, you do too, right? And it doesn't bother you? I bought a yogurt machine and just got it on Monday, so I finally get to make it. Everyone keeps talking about the advantages of it, so I thought...
  22. Okay, so at least I'm not alone on this. That's good news. Yesterday and today, all I've had is carrots and meat, no juice even. I'm making the yogurt (it's at home cooking right now), so I will try that either tomorrow or Friday. But I guess it makes me feel a lot better to know that even if I have the foods that are 'legal' but still bother me, it doesn...
  23. Open Original Shared Link That is the website where you can buy the probiotics offline. That's where I got mine. They are about the same price as buying them in the store. Anyway, Christine, you are lucky that you can tolerate all of those things. I can't have bananas, it seems like I have a problem with any kind of fruit. My main problem is bloating...
  24. I have a question, how did all of you go about this? After the intro. diet, did you really take the time to add in one new food every 3-4 days? I was doing so good, but I think that I really need to get this elimination thing started because I keep thinking, okay, well, as long as it's on the 'legal' list, I'm fine. But that's obviously not the case. What...
  25. Thanks for your support Rachel! Yes, I'm sticking to this diet and keeping my head on straight (at least trying) when things look like I'm not getting anywhere. But these little things that I am learning just make so much sense, like the eating only cooked foods thing, and the smaller meals. I just believe in the SCDiet so much to throw it away when I feel...
