Guest guest Posted September 11, 2007 Report Share Posted September 11, 2007 Hi all, I'm wondering....which squash is easiest to digest? I can already tell you that I don't do well with zuchinni or yellow (summer) squash. Is there another that is known for being easy to digest? Also, I just wanted to share something. I'm on SCD for my second time, and this time it's going better. I actually ate caulifower mock potatoes today (only a tiny bit). It's the first vegetable I've been able to eat that hasn't caused immediate distress in FOUR years. I've been totally off fruits and veggies for that long. I'm also tolerating some cow milk yogurt. Needless to say, I'm thrilled!!! I actually feel like there's some hope for me. Who knows...maybe it's premature hope (I've only been on the diet for four days), but it's hope nonetheless. Anyway, I just wanted to share my small beginnings. :-) By the way, I don't think that cauliflower is advised for the beginning of the diet. But the stages suggested on pecanbread don't seem to apply to me, for whatever reason. Just wanted to share, in case someone else is new out there that wants to try the mock potatoes. If there's anything I'v learned from this diet, it's that everyone is different and each of us tolerate different things at different times. :-) Have a good day, and I'll thank you in advance for any help you can give me on the squashes. ~ Celiac, gastroparesis, candida, heart problems (pacemaker and open heart surgery at a young age), PCOS, ankylosing spondylitis, yada, yada, yada.

Guest guest Posted September 12, 2007 Report Share Posted September 12, 2007 Hi , I tolerated winter squash right away after the intro diet: acorn, butternet, and spaghetti squash. Acorn seems to " go down " the best. I've been on SCD many years and still can't tolerate summer squash: yellow and zucchini (seems to me there was another one I tried too). Congrats on the cauliflower mock potatoes! --- Coats wrote: > Hi all, > > I'm wondering....which squash is easiest to digest? > I can already tell you > that I don't do well with zuchinni or yellow > (summer) squash.

Guest guest Posted September 12, 2007 Report Share Posted September 12, 2007 Thank you, ! I'm going to stick with the cauliflower for a few days longer to make SURE I'm okay with it, then I'll try some of the others you suggested -- one at a time, of course! :-) ~ > >Reply-To: pecanbread >To: pecanbread >Subject: Re: Pick a squash, any squash >Date: Wed, 12 Sep 2007 15:54:58 -0700 (PDT) > >Hi , > >I tolerated winter squash right away after the intro >diet: acorn, butternet, and spaghetti squash.
