Hey all! Just had a quick question to everyone. (and I am sure its been asked a million times over...but Hey. I am asking it now:ysmile

I just wanted to know what foods you all avoid and what you have started to enjoy again. I am new to remicade and have been on Pred for a while. But I don't really stray from my rice and noddle soup diet. I am just wondering if anyone who has been on remicade for a while has had any changes in what they could eat. If so....what foods are they. And what do you miss the most. I miss steak!!!! Also I am type 2 diabetic and have to check my sugar daily. And that also puts a damper on my diet.

I would love feedback!

Thanks so much!:hug:

HEY!
I have been told by all of my GI's that when I start to feel better to slowly introduce the foods that made me sick back into my diet. Like only adding one at a time, and if you start to feel sick then obviously back off. I am not sure what I started with it was 3 years ago. But take it very slowly and listen to your body. I missed salad the most, so that may have been one of the first things I tried to get back.

Thanks for the reply Afidz! Not sure which foods I will try. Guess I need to start feeling better first though. xx
