Laughing Cow is made from aged cheeses but not aged itself so I don't know

whether it is

legal or not. Why do you ask about Weight Watchers/ SCD is ot a weight loss

diet,

Yes I know SCD is not a weight loss diet. I was just wondering why she

is doing SCD while going to weight watchers. I would imagine something

as healthy as the SCD diet a person would not need weight watchers

anymore. I'm not touting SCD as a weight loss diet at all..in fact I

tell people its the opposite

I am doing SCD but I am 5 feet tall and weigh 168 pounds. I should

weigh about 35 pounds less. I originally started at 225 pounds. I was

sick and miserable. I lost about 50 pounds with Weight Watchers in

2004. After that I got stuck, no weight loss. I switched to WW Core,

which is a no counting plan that emphasizes whole, natural foods. I

had always felt crummy, looked swollen and had IBS, but when I ate

grains I would gain 2 to 3 pounds overnight. I spent a year losing

and gaining the same 5 or 6 pounds. Finally the gluten intolerance

was discovered. I started SCD on 11/30/06, but I was gaining weight

on SCD. I went back to Weight Watchers on 2/5/07. I found that I

needed the structure of WW, I have lost 4.6 pounds so far by

combining strict SCD and the guidence of WW.

Am I losing weight because my gut is healing and the thyroid pills I

take are finally being absorved and used by my body? Or is it a

combination of a healing gut, the fact that I now eat much less

cheese and almond baked goods, and that I feel better so now I can

exercise?

I use WW as guide to learn how to eat in a way that fosters weight

loss. I have a lot of strong emotions attached to food. Food has been

a source of comfort and a source of pain, food is not just food to

me. I am working hard on loving myself with SCD, healing my body.

The people around me at the university tease me when they see me and

my lunch box. I have a tough time and it is my fault; I don't fit in

at Weight Watchers because I don't eat grains or fat free milk and

around here I ruffle feathers when I mention weight loss. Maybe I

would lose the excess weight naturally in time by simply following

SCD, I don't know. I know myself and I know I tend to overeat.

Can all of you still be my friends even if I am determined to pull

this darn excess weight off?

Of course we will still be your friends. Doing SCD is hard emotionally

sometimes because often we're looked at as fanatics, weird, or whatever. Do

what's right for you body though, and you'll never be sorry.

I think there are many people on list that can benefit from occasional

discusions about weight loss and SCD. While most people go SCD to heal numerous

health complaints, there are many people like myself that follow the diet

because a child of ours is on it, or who can benefit from the wonderful foods

AND need to lose a few pounds. I wish this list weren't so quick to pounce on

those that don't fit the mold. We are all here for the same reason....Good

health. The avenue to get there may not all be the same for everyone.

Not pouncing!

The focus of the list is SCD for ASD. I emailed on the weight loss issue

since I lost

86 pounds seven years ago prior to needing SCD and have kept the weight off for

seven

years using SCD. Feel free to email me for help with the weight loss questions.

I just think

we have to stick to our mission on the list most of the time. I personally came

in for heavy

critiicism on the Long island SCD List when I was very concerned about gaining

weight so I

do understand how you must feel.

My suggestions for those who have an obsity issue is to use

www.fitday.com

as a free tracking tool for calories, nutrition, journaling, etc. Moderate use

of calorie

dense foods like ut butters, dried fuit, honey etc. Try not to be food obsessed

eeven

though it is at the core of our discussions My story:
