Guest guest Posted May 13, 2006 Report Share Posted May 13, 2006 Wow, if that doesn't convince me to go SCD, I don't know what will! I look forward to similar days once we begin.

Guest guest Posted May 14, 2006 Report Share Posted May 14, 2006 Dear Jeni, Isn't it such a blessing to reap the benifits! I just love reading posts like this one! It is so nice to get our family's back, instead of being so sick eating the SADiet...or other ways. Such a blessing indeed. God bless you and your families success.

Guest guest Posted May 14, 2006 Report Share Posted May 14, 2006 Wow, Jeni Lynn, what a wonderful day! I look forward to this - I wish I could say Tom's become a perfectly mannered little gentleman on SCD, but all I can say is that he seems to have turned 2 and 3 all at the same time, with all the awful toddler/preschooler behaviors rolled into one, plus night rages. Dr. Megson says when they start to get better they start being bad, so I sure hope his dang little gut is healing, I've got bruises all over my body! Happy Mother's Day!

We can't really afford it, but we took Margeaux and to Busch Gardens yesterday (Elle stayed at home with Grandma and her very detailed itinerary of do's and don'ts). Things have been so difficult for all of us since September last year, and we decided that the kids needed a day where they could just be kids and get their minds off of food and toxins. At the end of the day I was completely impressed with the difference all our biomedical measures has made in them. We were there from 10:00 am (leaving the house at 7:00am) until 10:00pm (arriving home at 12:30am). When we got there, we had a lot of confusion about the particular passes we were buying and spent A LOT of time in the ticket area. During our stay we had to leave the park twice to eat our Dr. Natasha Fluffy Soup in the parking lot (lunch and dinner). They completely missed their routine nap. Of course this trip was minus the usual 'fun' indulges in soda and sugar treats. And then (due to finances) they did not receive the usual treat of soveniers. I was completely prepared to have to give lengthy explanations and reminders of why we were not eating all the things that we smelled around us and why we were not buying the things we saw around us. I had purposed in my heart to remain patient even though my children would surely be antsy, fussy, and miserable standing in long lines. I was also prepared to assert the usual forcefulness when having to leave the park which would be three times as opposed to the obvious one of going home (lunch, dinner, and exit this time) as cranky children protested in an ugly manner. And I was ready to take the usual measures of firm threats of " whatever " when dealing with irrationale from over-tired and over-stimulated as well as somewhat hungry (since they only ate fluffy soup which was only accessible during 'parking lot' times) children. All of my preparations were in vain because my children were PERFECT the entire day, from dawn until dusk. They did not request any of the junk food we were bombarded by all day long. I think I struggled with the resisting the smell of icecream and fudge far more than they did. They hardly noticed at all except the occasional matter-of-fact comment of, " I smell . . . (fill in the blank). " One time my daughter asked if we could buy any soveneirs. I said that we couldn't because we didn't have enough money for that. There was no complaint about it. She just accepted the response and we walked to the next attraction. As we stood in lines, my children stood perfectly still the entire time not mumbling a single irritated word, only smiling and giving an occasional remark of how great their day was. There was never any complaint about having to leave the park to eat soup in the parking lot. We breezed through the meals easily and quickly, finishing off every bite. And at the end of the day, we walked happily hand-in-hand from the park with two perfectly happy and satisfied children. It was amazing! I have never had such an experience with our family in an amuzement park before. It was out of a dream that I have always longed to live and never was able to achieve. Yesterday, as we walked around the park or stood in lines, I observed the other children. As these children screamed and whined and bumped into every soul " blessed " enough to be near them in line, I praised God for leading us to SCD. Yesterday, these out-of-control children were not my children. Yesterday, I was the one who could observe the big scenes instead of participating in them. Yesterday, I understood the power of nutrition and how it is a primary tool (too often overlooked) that we have been given to raise and enjoy our families the way the God intended us to.
