Guest guest Posted October 26, 2007 Report Share Posted October 26, 2007 Good to know we are not alone in this increase in eating... Henry is actually pretty big for his age -- he is about 53 " tall and 70 lbs. -- he is actually very muscular and lean (he wears size 10 for the length but the waists, even with those adjustable waists, swim on him). Interestingly, he has been GFCF soy free, corn free, pea free, refined sugar free etc. since he was about 4.5 and only since starting SCD has he really been asking for things like, pizza, chicken mcnuggets and dunkin donuts (he never even had a doughnut, even before gfcf so this one is particularly funny) at this rate I might need a home equity line of credit (LOL) > > Oh yeah Maegan gained 3 lbs in one month!!!! > Christy > eating us out of house and home > > > Is it unusual for children a few weeks into the diet to be eating tons > > and tons.

Guest guest Posted October 26, 2007 Report Share Posted October 26, 2007 Actually this diet did increase our food budget significantly! Especially once we went to all organic. Now that their eating is under control and we dont eat out or buy the pricey snacks, it is pretty much leveled out to a managable cost. Well worth it from all the benefits for our entire family.
