Guest guest Posted February 24, 2008 Report Share Posted February 24, 2008 Louise, Welcome to the list, and glad to have you, although sorry you need to be here. <g> Depending on finances, I may be out your way in the not-too-distant future. Harry (my husband) and I are investigating the possibility of a rammed earth house by Terra Firma Builders, who are on Salt Spring Island. I managed to lose 35 pounds last year, but this year, it's not going well. Like you, I'm a writer, and WISH I could do artwork! (My sister got the artwork talent in our family.) The Pecan Bread stages are a guide, nothing more. They didn't exist when I started SCD. I ate pork roast, beef roast, steamed zucchini and soft-boiled eggs. That was what I tolerated -- and besides, my husband is NOT a cook, and I could tell him how to set this up for me. If turkey and fish and a couple beginning vegetables work best for you, go for it. The object of the intro is to give your body easy to digest food while it eliminates all the illegals. As Dr. Gee said, " That which the patient takes, beyond his ability to digest, does harm. " You will have to be very careful of even organic fruit juices as they often contain " evaporated cane juice, " which is sugar by any other name. Welch's (now in plastic instead of glass), Kedem, and the Knudsen " Just Juice " line are all legal. I don't do a lot of fruit, either. — Marilyn New Orleans, Louisiana, USA Undiagnosed IBS since 1976, SCD since 2001 Darn Good SCD Cook No Human Children Shadow & Sunny Longhair Dachshund Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
