Hey all...its been awile since I've been here...had been doing pretty good...but now in some need of true crohnnies advice...I am looking to change my diet up again..I have tried the gluten free, sugar free, lactose free..worked for a bit, but now gluten free products gag me..did the sdc for a bit and lo carbs..once again, worked for a bit but then didn't...I still stay away from sugar mostly and limit my dairy...things were pretty good for a while, now feeling just blah again...was thinking about changing to a vegan diet...not sure if I'll be able to because I enjoy my meats I would like to find a diet that will continue to work, as well... Anyway, just looking into one that sort of has juices and solids mixed within the diet ...not sure if anyone has any advice, but anything would be helpful! Thanks!!!

Hello,
I'm currently trying to focus on my diet because nothing else seems to be helping at this point. I'm finding that the SCD diet has really helped when I stick to it. However, I need to be honest with myself in how many times I've cheated here and there and it effect on my success I the past. You stay away from sugar most of the time, and limit diary. But I'm finding in order to be successful with diet treatments it takes 100% commitment. No diary means no diary, ever!!! I always started to feel a bit better the sabotage my success with eating ice cream which I love, but I know will kill me. I recently found pea-protein drinks. They are are soy and lactose free, and I've been feeling good after drinking them. Protein intake is important to be because of my fitness goals, and the whey protein is not SCD legal. Vegan would be hard because of the grain consumption. I love meat way to much, and find that meat is usually not an issue with my Crohns. Good luck in whatever you choose. Stay with it long enough to see what kind of results it actually giving you and adjust accordingly.
