Hello All, Recently Diagnosed in May 2014 with Crohn's Granulomatous Colitis and NOT in remission yet. I swear I eat more pills than food. The "bad" foods affect me pretty much within the hour of eating them. I can't even look at a salad, raw fruits/veggies or any dairy with lactose, lots of caffeine, spicy food of ANY…

Update: The best news- NO CANCER!!!! But,It is either Crohn's or Ulcerative Colitis. I will find out for sure in a week or so after biopsy results, but my doctor feels like it is Crohn's Disease more. I also have some kind of non-related stomach disease that produces too much acid called Erosive Esophagitis. I went through…

Be blessed and happy walking to all! 10/08/13- Start Day 1 mile with warm…

I'm BACK! Great to be home :) I was so sad to leave a few months ago, but I couldn't stay away any longer. I missed you all and so did my weight loss progress (or lack of progress).
