Enviro-kids has GF cereals, but they're kid flavours, and Natures Path - "Cheerios", corn flakes and Rice Krispies. They're organic, non-gmo too if that's important to you. The corn flakes are really good.

Baby carrots, eggs, unsweetened almond milk, tuna (that doesn't help you though) mini rice cakes, libertè Greek yogurt, strawberries and aged cheddar.

You should follow exactly what your doctor tells you. You don't want to make yourself sicker by deciding to go against his advice, he gave you that diet for a reason.

It's so rare that we go to the movies (twice in the last 12 months) that when we do go, we go all out. There's always New York Fries - poutine with my husband or just plain fries with the kids. Popcorn to share with no butter, candy (which I usually smuggle in) and everyone gets their own drink. Sometimes the kids want…

I haven't come across PB2, but chia seeds are sold at every grocery store here (small town Northern BC) Sobeys, Safeway, Save On Foods.

If your that worried about chia seeds not being fully absorbed, don't eat them. Same with corn.

You can do it, it's only for a month. Make sure you track what you eat. Some Crohns patients can be set off just from eating onion or garlic, two very common spices. Look into the SCD diet too, lots of IBS/IBD patients do well on it. I have an incredibly restricted diet. I can eat potatoes, eggs, rice cakes, peeled apples,…

I felt like a whole new person after cutting out gluten, but I have celiac and I was incredibly sick at that point. No idea about low carb. Haven't tried it. Don't plan on ever trying it.

Just make sure you don't eat them all right away :) I get it. I've had the same melt-down. Restaurants are hard. My "special snowflake" needs are no: gluten, oats, popcorn, nuts, seeds, dairy, meat, or greasy/oily foods, plus raw veggies are bad and fruits with skins lol. If I find something I can eat....I go all out. I've…

I'm on for No Soda, that's my biggest weakness.

Yes and No. I only cook one meal, but I'll sometimes cook it two ways.....if we're having teriyaki chicken that I know my kids won't eat, I'll leave some chicken out and cook it with just salt and pepper. Actually, that's pretty much true for all meats. My younger two do not like sauces, and I have no issue cooking their…

I'm confused. There is only one day that was below 1200 in your diary in the last 1-2 weeks, the rest are pretty far over. If you do want to up your cals there are a few easy ways to add them. Use butter or oil to fry your egg in the morning. Have a spoonful of peanut butter, eat a handful of nuts, or granola, or even add…

You're very brave to plan to be somewhere before the procedure....once things start moving they don't stop for quite awhile. Make sure you begin early enough the night before that you'll be finished long before your weigh in. You don't want to be running for a bathroom. But yes, you should have some weight loss. Not only…

For my kids, husband, and myself I always buy: Carrots Snap peas Celery Potatoes Onion Spinach Lettuce Bananas Apples Oranges Grapes Watermelon Salami Chicken breast Pork loin Rice cakes Gluten free flour Dairy free chocolate chips Butter Earth balance OJ Frozen berries Coconut yogurt Milk - almond, coconut and 2% Cereal

I can. And do, most of the time. I have Crohns and the only way to be pain free, mostly nausea free and have everything internally function kinda normal is to stay far away from animal products, gluten/oats, corn, nuts and seeds. It's awesome amounts of fun (sarcasm.....) I really love meat, and would gladly eat steak for…

Fruits, veggies, rice, quinoa, oats (make sure they are certified gf) meats, dairy...all naturally gf. Brown rice pasta is ok too. Gf Rice Krispies/chex.... And check all your labels. Soy sauces, salad dressing, soups, deli meats, candy, some chips, rotisserie chickens, reg. Rice Krispies, pretty much any processed,…

I'll warn you now.....gf bread is nothing like bread. The texture, the taste, it's just not the same.

Our town must be strange, we have at least 10 coaches locally that I've come across just on Facebook, and we live in a small, small town (in BC) compared to Calgary.

I live in Canada too and they leave packages at my door ALL the time. Sometimes they don't even knock, they just drop it off and leave.

If he's gluten free because of celiac you should ask him before making oatmeal, Los of Celiacs can't tolerate them.

Rice, chicken breast w/salt & pepper, soups - chicken, veggie etc. just watch the seasonings. Potatoes, cooked veggies,

It sucks, but you just do it. I have celiac and Crohn's disease, so in order to control both things I eat a gluten/oat free, nut/seed/bean/corn free, dairy/meat/egg free diet. Try going to a restuarant with that lol. We actually don't have one restuarant here (small town) with gluten free options, except salad. I do cheat…

Ninja blender!

Amazing

The odds of you having a life threatening heart disease at 19 years old because of a few years of bad eating habits in really really low. So yes, you are overreacting.

Vanilla Vega is good. The chocolate kind is kinda nasty though.

I get monthly injections because the part of my intestine that absorbs B12 has been removed, I can't absorb it. The only thing I notice after my shot is a few sleepless, restless nights. No added energy during the day though.

I could have written this post word for word. Our son is GF (I have celiac, he has all the symptoms at 3 years old) as well as being dairy, nut and soy free. The last time we let his grandparents watch him (my IL's) my husband went to pick him up and he was eating cheddar cheese goldfish crackers. He will not be allowed to…

Just remember that works for one person with IBS might not work for another. I don't have IBS, but I do have IBD, the only powder I've used without issue is Vega.

I use vanilla Vega, it's pretty tasty. I've also used hemp in the past, but it kinda tastes like dirt.
