Re: Re: How do I cook for entire family at different stages?

[Guest guest]

Good Luck! In the beginning it is so hard. We went from the Standard

American Diet, to the SCD. It was a major adjustment. But, other healthy

ways come so easy now also. And the benefits are so great! We were all very

crabby but, we've mellowed out and now we are happier than we were before

too. Hope this helps! Jenn & K 9 months SCD

Yes we jumped alright! I can't hardly stand feeling sick again!. We had so

much success last summer eating the paleo diet. I hate feeling sick again. I

just hate it. I trust that the SCDiet is the answer...it is paleo after

all...with so much more to offer. My husband, bio son and adopted daughter are

lucky...they are eating a strict SCDiet also...but unlike me and my 21 month old

bio daughter are able to tolerate everything allowed on the SCDiet. I need some

reassurance that this will pass...today is awful! Feeling overwhelmed and sick.

I will reread everything....and take it MUCH SLOWER! If I remember right it

took six weeks to two months last time! YUCK!

" Jumping " ?

The Stages are not a required procedure or written as part of SCD. They are a

guideline for

those who are unsure what to add and when. Elaine suggested once diaharrea

clears up to

add foods of your choice in small amounts and do it gradually. We advise

keeping a log of

what was added and any effects noted. Simply keep it simple for you and the

baby. You

will catch up. feed the rest of the family as you have ben doing. i assume you

have chosen

to give them SCD legal foods since you mentioned that before.

Yogurt, peanuts, seeds,beans and raw foods don't get added at the beginning.

Dried fruits

should always be used in small amounts when they are added.

Everyone will benefit by reading BTVC several times and studying the websites

for the diet.
