    Hi guys. I'm so glad everyone sees how GREAT this diet is too. I am really happy on it. Anyway, my doctor wants me to do a gastric emptying test tomorrow because if I eat too much at once, I get bloated and stay that way for a couple of days. I can only eat small meals, very small, very frequently in the day. Anyway, I believe it is because my digestive...

    All I have to say is I COMPLETELY AGREE WITH ALL OF YOU. This diet is ACTUALLY WORKING FOR ME. I feel like it is a miracle. SERIOUSLY. And yes, with all of the new recipes that I am learning through this diet, not ONE LITTLE BIT do I feel deprived in ANY way. There are TONSSSSS of foods to eat on this diet. And although we are avoiding things like rice and...

    What is the difference between flax oil and flax meal? Because Elaine says that flax oil is legal.

    Hi Donna! Well, I'm actually eating a lot. I can have asparagus, green beans, spinich, apples, pears, rasins, the homemade gelitan, carrots of course, coffee actually! (watered down a lot though, of course, and only black), still any kind of meat, fish, and I can tolerate almond butter! I'm so happy about that one because it is the only thing that really...

    Well, I haven't been on the site for a while because I've been doing this SCDiet. I've been doing the mailing list for SCD and have found lots of nice people who've helped me and talked to me about what I need to do next on this diet. It's pretty cool because one of the ladies who was very close friends with Elaine herself was e-mailing me with TONS of people...

    Just an idea: try the SCDiet. I've been on it for about one month and a week now, and I no longer constipated, no longer bloated, and I'm feeling really really good. A lot of the symptoms that you said that you have now, I was still having being gluten/casein free. It's a very good diet for someone with a 'leaky gut' and a million different food intolerances...

    Wow! You all have some level of all of the symptoms I have. Well, I'd say my MOST annoying symptom is horrible BLOATING. I forgot who mentioned this, but I'm exactly the same...I'm 5'7 and fluctuate between 115-121lbs. When it's a good day, and I am not bloated, I am 115, and those days that I look like I'm about to pop a baby out of me, I'm 121 and don't...

    Yes, I will def. ask Dr. Green all about his book. I personally didn't like what I read of it, so I have many questions for him, including issues on CC and other food intolerances. Anyway, terps19, I've tried papaya enzymes before, (they were supposed to be the best) but they didn't do anything for me......? Hopefully, they'll work for you. And yeah,...

    Hi, I don't have any advise on this, but I too am in the same boat, exactly. I've been on the SCD for about two weeks now, and it's scary because I'm Sooooooooooooooooooo sensitive. Everytime I mess up or I have a food that is on the 'safe' list that just doesn't agree with me, I pretty much starve myself the next day too and it's turning into a horrible...

    That may be true. But in her book she makes the argument that although many with Celiac get better on the gluten-free diet, eventually, they get sick again, whether it be 1 week from now, 1 year, 20 years, etc. That's the only thing. But I guess we'll never know for sure because it's impossible to get so many people's input and from so many different stages...

    Hi everyone. I have been on the SCD diet for, actually two weeks today. I have noticed much improvement in these two weeks, but I'm not going to say anything else for right now because I don't want to jinx it! Anyway, I was just researching Dr. Haas, the Dr. that created this Specific Carbohydrate Diet, and I came to this article. It was written by a...

    Jessica, first I just want to say, WOW! Someone who is my age and married! I'm so happy to see that because I'm engaged and people look at me like this when I tell them my age. They look at me like I'm doing something wrong.... Anyway, I live in NYC, I'm 22 in a couple of months, (so you're same age) and you can e-mail me anytime! Danikali22@hotmail...

    I'll def. go! It would be so AMAZING to be surrounded by people who UNDERSTAND (really understand) what I go through every day of my life. My eyes would def. not be dry! And Chicago sounds perfect, since it's the biggest city right in the middle. Can we really do this? It's sounds too good to be true!
  14. danikali
    I really think so, because grease is known to bother people WITHOUT stomach problems and here's us, hahaha, thinking that it won't affect us! My Mom ALWAYS gets D from greasy stuff......and she usually doesn't have stomach problems. hahahah, you're not going to believe this. I'm yelling at Laura (my step-Mom, by the way) to do her homework. Look at this...

    Hi guys. Donna, I'm sorry you're sick again. But at least you know it's from going way too fast and adding things that you're not ready for. Well, I was trying and trying to figure out what was making my stomach blow up so big, and I'm almost 100% positive as to what it was. On the other SCD post, Nancy said that food continues to digest in your body...
  16. danikali
    Nancy, when you say that you're fasting, do you mean you are only drinking liquids? Or how is that? Does it speed up the process of getting over the symptoms of eating something that didn't agree with you. Well, on Sat. I rushed ahead of myself and had raw fruit and veggies, and from that night on, I've been abnormal all over again. The only thing is...
  17. danikali
    It's sounds like you've got it all figured out! That's great. Traveling can be hard when you have to cook EVERYTHING. Does anyone know how to get rid of a bloated stomach? I'm not gassy, which is a good thing, so I'm just retaining water for some reason. I think too much juice on this diet, or too much salt? But whatever it is, I want to look normal...
  18. danikali
    Thanks for replying Donna. Can you believe I just wrote about 3 paragraphs and accidently deleted it!!! Ahhh......anyway, I seem a little better today because I took out salt last night (I was having a lot to make up for any other tasty things I can't eat, or add to things like carrots).....and also, I've been drinking, LOTS OF JUICE, ALL DAY......more than...

    Hi everyone on the SCD diet. Well, if you're out there right now, I have a concern. I had problems with something that I ate on Saturday night. So, for the past four days, I have had nothing but juice/water, homemade chicken soup, carrots, and hamburger pattys, homemade of course. And although the gas has stopped, my stomach is still HUGE. I mean, it...
  20. danikali
    So you must be eating the same stuff as me. I can't have nuts and nut butter, and I won't try and add that until waaaaaaaay later in the diet. I can't. And I can't have dairy either, any kind.
  21. danikali
    Wow! Good for you!!! You give me inspiration! I've been on the diet for about 2 weeks now, and am doing MUCH better already than I was before too. Of course, like I mentioned the un-ending hunger, but my stomach doesn't hurt AT ALL unless I eat something that doesn't agree. (I tried raw apples and carrots on Sat. and I def. can't do that again.) But my sleep...
  22. danikali
    OMG Donna! I've noticed that too, for the first time, since I can remember! I was eating ALL DAY LONG BEFORE, I mean NON-STOP. Nothing filled me, AT ALL. But now, I'm eating more like a normal person than ever! (Okay, you know what I mean). I can actually stop eating so much in between meals and focus on other things rather than 'what else can I eat?' I wasn...
  23. danikali
    hahah, okay, I was beginning to think that I was doing something wrong! It's interesting because when I think about it, I can't believe that I've been eating pretty much the same thing every day for the past 13 days now and I still look forward to eating! I'm eating a lot of the chicken soup and a lot of hamburger patties, which I really love a lot. I don...
  24. danikali
    I know exactly what you mean about the carrots. For the first time since I started the diet, I decided I was going to skip bringing the carrots today because I'm having the chicken/carrot soup for dinner and that's enough for now. Donna, I'm jealous you're doing so well! I'm practically still on the same diet I started with. I've added apples and mangos...

    ARCHIVED Amazing Stupidity

    danikali replied to floridanative's topic in Doctors

    My question is, why don't doctors know ANYTHING about other food intolerances BECAUSE OF gluten and Celiac? Not even Dr. Green mentioned it to me, so I asked him and he said, yeah, soy and dairy, usually doesn't go beyond that. And new doctors look at me and say, well, either you are eating gluten, or you're making this up! Okay, not literally, but that...
