About to munch on some peanuts for a snack! Never would have guessed all of the nutrients and minerals found in them!
 
"Kentucky baked chicken," one of my favourite dishes from a meal prep company that I use sometimes. The chicken is marinated and then coated in 11 herbs spices (but never deep fried). Yum!
 
Lol I am a bit drunk right now and am continuously trying to correct my spelling lol thank god for spelling check !! I am amazed I can still type
I had two wontons while drinking the last drink for the night (Vodka and lemonade)!! While watching some tV while my buddy sleeps on the couch!
 
Just had some leftover roast chicken....had some home made bruschetta (tomato, onion, herbs, toast, mozarella)....


Now I have moved on to pinot grigio champagne......not bad!!!!
 
I've had an awesome tummy today (only 2 urgent toilet runs!! But, I'm about to be naughty and eat an apple turnover
 
ok, because I was naughty, turn that 2 urgent toilet runs to up hourly all night! doesn't seem worth it eating that apple turnover now! hehe
 
White toast with dairy free margarine. Booooring.
What you're eating sounds so good Shannon. I'm still not entirely sure if chocolate makes me feel awful or not haha.
 
Pre-surgery: Air, next to nothing

Post surgery: Boiled chicken, boiled potatoes, baked potatoes, pasta, courgettes, yoghurt, custard, plain biscuits, eggs, toast, various cheeses, cold meats, tea with a little milk, bread rolls.

I know it's not very exciting but compared to what I was eating less than a month ago it's pretty fantastic.:luigi:

I'm eating this Asian chicken sesame salad Panera bread makes, so yummy! But I don't know what I was thinking when I bought it. That lettuce is not going to be my friend. :(
 
I love Panera, the asiago cheese bagel and cream of chicken and rice soup are my favorite. Not eating right now just drinking Dr. Pepper (my fav)
 
I am surprised at how many people try to eat Chinese.... everyone always seems to end up regretting it!

Tonight I made shrimp pad thai and edamame. We declared that Sundays will now be "pan-Asian" night!

Sounds delicious, Amy! I'm free next Sunday... ;) ;)

Tonight, I made a dish of 'naked oats' (which is more rice-like than oat-like) with zucchini, peppers, tomatoes, onion and ground lamb. House smells great; only trouble now is my appetite has disappeared... :S
 
I was trying not to eat much to give my system a rest but my hunger got the best of me. I ate tuna on a white roll and a piece of coffee cake. I think the bread is not good for me.

I am new to this forum and I also am surprised at what people are able to eat! I have to be so careful or I get a tummy ache that lasts the whole day or I just feel nauseous! I am starting Asacol today, maybe that will help.
 
Just been really naughty and no i will pay for it but just had roast chickin, roast tato, carrots, cabbage and yorkshire pudding plus gravy, yum yum been wanting for ages !
 
Wow.. so pretty much were all on high fat diet eh? My friends hate me because when flare I have to give up *gasp* vegetables and wheat bread.
 
I am not eating anything. I am liquid fasting for a few days. Last week I ate lots of things that upset me. I had a chicken & cheese sandwich, several glasses of wine with 220, a muffin and chocolate. I know I should not eat them but I did. And I have regretted it ever since as I have had chronic stabbing bowel pain, diarrhea, passed blood and felt exhausted. So in answer to your question, I am currently consuming a juice made with spinach, rocket, parsley, cabbage, celery, ginger, cucumber and apple. It is very GREEN. A few days of just liquid in the form of vegetable juices, water and maybe some vegetable broth will set me right again. I wish I could eat like I use to but the pain is not worth it. I think I have learned my lesson this time. I hope I have learned my lesson this time. And I had better not read anymore of this thread as its making me crave food I can’t have.
 
Since I've been in a flare for the last month or so, I've been living off chicken, salmon, tuna, potatoes, rice, and bananas. And of course lots of bread! All these delicious foods people are listing are killing me! :yfrown: can't wait to get out of this flare!
 
My diet is suposed to be Low Residue, which i told my gi that it made me think he was putting me on a low fungus diet. lol.

Currently I'm drinking Dr. Pepper, and eating pepperoni pizza rolls.

Many people (even my home nurse) keep saying "you need more fiber!" and "we need to get you spinage!" and i'm like "but i'm not supposed to..." and they totally forget the main reason why they are there is because of this crohn's thing. And I'm not supposed to have stool softeners or high fiber foods. - But it makes me smile because I can actually say "I need more starch! Less vegetables!" and have a valid reason for when they ask why, and try to argue their side of it.

but what's 220

Hello David

Preservative 220, also known as SO2, is sulphur dioxide.

It is pretty bad for your health generally and very bad for anyone with asthma. And it can cause terrible learning and developmental problems for children.

It is used to preservative food to extend shelf life. Mainly used in bottled juices, soft drinks, beer and wine to protect against oxidation and spoilage. Also used on dried fruit like sultanas, raisins, dates, and other packaged fruit/rollups found in the supermarket. Plus sometimes in bread, crackers and other common foods too.

I try to drink preservative-free or low preservative wine where possible.
