Re: SCD ABA Reinforcer ideas?/attention Carol!

[Guest guest]

and to all it may concern,

IT is almost frightening how much you sound like us! Last spring, summer and

fall we ate in a similar way that you just described...got some relief...created

great hope....but guess what it was nothing compared to the SUCCESS we are

having with a strict adherence to the SCDIET! We are on week three today, the

entire family! We are starting to see a miracle in our children and in

ourselves. I don't doubt for one minute that this is the solution after this

last three weeks! Even as parents our behavior is better....as for reinforcer

ideas......how a bout stickers (unlickable ones since they are not SCD safe)

holding one another, hugging, laughing together and loving one another! Learning

how to live again and enjoy one another's company at family outings! IT works

as a great reinforcer! It doesn't have to be food anymore! We too have

problems with peanuts, almonds and coconut...thanks to this list serve I now

know why! Stick with us...they have so much to teach you! We are still

learning so much....I now have had a huge dose of humility because I once

thought I new it all.....what did I know?

As for alternative help...we wait to see a DAN (couldn't be worked in

sooner...go figure!) at the end of April.....by then I hope we don't need him

that much by then. We just went bankrupt due to medical bills! AND what did

we have to show for it....a SICK FAMILY and two kids being sucked into autism

and ADHD, a daughter that is healing from cerebral palsy/hyperekplexia...a

father who is getting relief from his ADD, and a mother who has neurological

problems her self! Now we can heal with our grocery bill...a few

supplements...and the FREE help from this wonderful list serve......what a trade

off! Thank you Elaine!!!!! We will go to Disney Land with the money we SAVE!

Antoinette and Family...go for it you have nothing to loose and everything to

GAIN!

(WEEK 3 entire family SCD/family history: Celiac Disease, Malabsorption

Syndrome, Dermatitis Herpetiformis, Multiple Sensitivities and Allergies,

Neurological problems such as ASD. ADD, ADHD and mental illness and so much

more.....all seeing improvements...no other intervention but diet!)

SCD ABA Reinforcer ideas?

Hi All,

Thanks for all the previous advice and answers to my questions...

I was wondering about what SCDer's use as food reinforcers?

Cameron's showing quite the sensitivity to peanut butter, almonds and

coconut and we are currently avoiding dairy.

I'm pretty sure all his current reinforcers have been contributing to yeast

(green grapes, raisins and " honey candies " - almond rocca w/out the almond

and subbing coconut oil for the butter).

Any ideas/suggestions for other less sweet reinforcers for my sweet-toothed

little guy?
