You can find Genisoy Soy Crisps at Safeway, GNC, on the web, or Trader Joe's has their own brand.

Guest guest Posted November 9, 2003 Report Share Posted November 9, 2003 My all-time favorite salty 'n crunchy is a Triscuit or something like it. It's made with *actual* whole wheat, not some wheat flour or something. Whole wheat makes it a complex carb and it doesn't break down quickly like a white cracker or potato chip or something. Popcorn and rice cakes are plain old carbs, tasty as they may be, low-fat as they may be. Not the health food they purport to be. I think we have to watch out more for carbs than fats. in Austin RNY April 1998 snacks > Is popcorn and rices cakes ok as snacks???

Guest guest Posted November 9, 2003 Report Share Posted November 9, 2003 I practically live on triscuits and cheese. I don't worry too much about the fats, since it seems my body just flat doesn't process fats at all.

Guest guest Posted November 9, 2003 Report Share Posted November 9, 2003 You know, I lived on Quaker Rice Cakes (I only liked the white cheddar) for many years. It didn't seem to hurt me. But then, I was chasing bad guys (often on foot) and taking care of 20 horses. LOL. I guess I was just burning them off as fast as I ate them. This was long before I joined this list, and I'm such an " oldie " that no one ever told me to stay away from carbs before I joined this list. The only things I knew to stay away from was sugar and fried foods. Both made me dump. I don't crave sugars, hardly ever drink a soda or eat a candy bar, and chocolate is a now and then thing. One of those Hershey's miniatures satisfies me, and only if it is dark chocolate. I must be a real oddball. What I crave is green veggies. And I don't deny that craving. I don't eat the Quaker corn/rice cakes anymore. Not because of what anyone told me. It's just that habit passed. I don't really have a habit now, unless it is the triscuits and cheese, and I don't eat that every day. I have to make myself remember to eat, especially under stress, or when I'm really busy. I must be getting calories somewhere. I barrel right along at 145-150 (your weight can vary as much as 5 lbs a day, at any given time). I just can't tell you where I'm getting them. I don't do protein shakes, and I usually forget to take vitamins. It must be the veggies. I MUST have some every day, or I go into DTs over it. Goodness, I REALLY feel like an oddball now.

Guest guest Posted November 9, 2003 Report Share Posted November 9, 2003 I'm guessing you're craving the greens because you have calcium issues? Ya think? Thanks, Vitalady, Inc.

Guest guest Posted November 9, 2003 Report Share Posted November 9, 2003 How many? 1-2 per day? 1-2 per hour? If you say 1- 2 per day. I'd say sure, if you count it as a meal not in addition to a meal. I'm not carbophobic, only sugar-phobic, personally. Thanks, Vitalady, Inc.

Guest guest Posted November 9, 2003 Report Share Posted November 9, 2003 Okay, so what is this something-like-a-Triscuit? Sounds good to me.

Guest guest Posted November 10, 2003 Report Share Posted November 10, 2003 Amen! I don't seem to have a problem with fats. Cholesterol is fine and weight is fine. And elbows still get dry! But, I do have a problem when I start high-carbing. I love the whole-wheat crackers. There are others in certain stores like Whole Foods, etc, but harder to find. I keep things like hummus, tuna salad, pimiento cheese to slather on them. The dog likes 'em too. in Austin RNY April 1998 RE: snacks > I practically live on triscuits and cheese.

Do a google search for Genisoy and you should be able to find them online.

Guest guest Posted November 9, 2006 Report Share Posted November 9, 2006 It sounds like you are seeing some really positive changes. Let him be the guide.... if you think he seems to need a snack in the evening, go ahead... with something legal and tolerable, of course. The " bit of mucous " is probably related to yeast or bacteria that have died and are " passing on " (literally). Keep up the good work. Patti snacks hi my son been scd for 2 weeks now and ican see major inprovemnts in his behaviour normaly he would bee snacking on rice cakes prior to starting scd,but now his eating good breakfast lunch and dinner but cause his stoped raiding the cuboards for his rice crackers i feel a bit guilty as he happy just for his main 3 meals and is very quiet is this the dieoff or is this the good behaviour and change im seeing and should i be offering snacks in the evenings too as normaly he would be snacking all evening after dinner,also his had 3 solid poos today with slight mucus last week they were loose and abit constipated is this all part of what happens nyomi..................
