Guest guest Posted March 16, 2006 Report Share Posted March 16, 2006 Hello! We just started not too long ago on the diet. I made the homemade sausage recipe today that I took off this list and my family loves it! We have 4 lbs of it in our freezer too! I was wondering though if a cough ever went with the symptoms when beginning the diet? Also my son's rages seems to be some worse in the past two days but he's also been having some greeen, really bad smelling poop several times a day as well, is that normal? Sorry to be gross! Also is it possible to maybe lose some weight on the diet? My mother was thinking about starting it and doing it with my family just to try and lose some weight since it cuts out sugars/starches/etc. Thanks! Dori 1/2 family scd 2 kids on for 1 week rest of family on for 2 days __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes mys on had what looked like an upper respiratroy infection during his die-off. > Also my son's rages seems to be some worse in the past > two days but he's also been having some greeen, really > bad smelling poop several times a day as well, is that > normal? Die-off can present in many ways. One being green Bm, Fatigue, lethragy, nausea, vomiting, tantrums and many more. Everyone is different. >Also is it possible to maybe lose some weight on the diet? SCD is NOT a weight loss diet but....it is a wegith regulating diet. Which means that people who before SCD are very thin due to not getting enough nutrients will gain weight as the gut heals And People who were overweight will begin to loose weight as certain craving (most of which are not SCD legal) and theri guts heal. many parents have reported that the lost weight while doing SCD with their kids especially if they were nut free.

Guest guest Posted March 17, 2006 Report Share Posted March 17, 2006 Hi Dori, My entire family went SCD 25 days ago....My one daughter also had a suspicious cough during die off....maybe it was (interesting that it happened to you to).....we all had very interesting poops too....as for weight my husband's " beer gut " (even thought he doesn't drink alcohol of any kind) disappeared and his pants are now falling off, he claims that his concentration is better....I am too thin...and have gained 2-3 pounds! My daughter KiKI is looking better...I think she has gained weight...and my daughter Xena's " baby fat " or what we now know was a bloated tummy disappeared! There you are.....much in common with everybody. We also had rage attacks during die off....especialy our son . It gets better...yet we are still hanging in there with all of you...some days are better than others....yet improvement is undeniable...KIKI (22 month old ASD/no speech delayed and other delays) talking for the first time in her life, becoming more assertive, and her delirium " night terror " like seizures are almost gone (use to have 1-3 a night!). Yesterday she even wanted to even pick out what she wants to wear in the morning for the first time! Good LUCK!
