Guest guest Posted March 16, 2010 Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 Hey Guys, I'm planning to travel out of town this weekend for a few days. Not far, just four hours away. I'm really nervous as this is my first trip since not feeling well and being diagnosed with Crohn's. I'm trying to think of everything to make this as pleasant as possible, so I thought you guys might offer some advice. " To-Do's " and " Not-To-Do's " sort of stuff. I think I have a decent food plan. Lots of snacks to bring along in the cooler, and put in the fridge when I get there. Yogurt, Frozen Banana Pancakes (thanks to Misty for the recipe), Apple Sauce, Cheese Cubes, Spinach Cheese Bake, Egg Cupcakes, Homemade Sausage, and maybe some of those yummy sounding crackers lin posted recently. Lots of stuff that can be made at home and reheated when I get there. Here is what I can eat so far: Chicken, Carrots, Yogurt, Honey, Dry Curd Cheese, Eggs, Olive Oil, Vanilla Extract, Lemon Juice, Butter, Fish, Ground Beef, Turkey, Apple Sauce, Cheddar Cheese, Butternut Squash, Tomato Juice, Banana, Zucchini, Parmesan, Spinach, Avocado, Swiss Cheese, Tomato, and Mushroom (all well cooked where necessary of course). Any other food suggestions? Any common pit falls I should avoid? I'll be staying with my very health food conscious father and will be visiting the local health food stores when I get there for restocking. Any suggestions not food related? My symptoms are thankfully mild and limited to mild digestion pain about mid-day on. Even my D cleared up after 11 days on the diet (that was very cool to see), so I'm not worried about that stuff if I can keep away from illegals (but maybe I should be?). Anyway, just generally being paranoid about being away from my familiar surroundings. Any advice appreciated Thanks, everyone! ~ Crohn's SCD - 02/21/10 - 24 days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
