Nirvana of Peristalsis

(also known as Mike's Flog)

   

A Regimen for Remission
This log tracks my regimen of attitude, exercise, stress management, and SCD foods. Since I started this regimen in 1997, I've been able to keep my Crohn's in a drug-free remission.

Monkey-see,
monkey-don't

Even though I may have experimented beyond the SCD from time to time, one must remember that everyone is different. Follow the intro diet for 3-5 days, and stick with the SCD until you are completely symptom free for at least one year before experimenting.

Hmm... the small amount of bread @ lunch was a bad move.. should've eaten that sandwich with a fork.

Kewl! The Connection's show today on NPR, with yours truly is archived in Real Audio. Check it out here! When the hosts and Ev discuss "what you have for lunch every day" they are talking about this Flog! :-) You can hear me babble about dietary regimens, remission, and the ease-of-use of Blogger's technology at 13 minutes into the show.
mhs@16:36

Lunch: carne asada burrito (green), enchilada style @ Rosa's.
mhs@13:03

Someone asked me the other day, "who is this Elaine Gottschall?". My reply: Elaine is to Inflammatory Bowel Disease what Rachel Carson is to the environmental awareness movement".

Elaine is the author of Breaking the Vicious Cycle; Rachel is the author of Silent Spring (and others).

Hey! If your local NPR station gets The Connection, tune in right now to learn about other unique blogs, like Flog! I emailed the three folks that are going to be hosted: Ev, Rebecca, and Brad to ask if they will mention this Food Log. The show is called The Connection and the station/time list is here (you can also listen on their site). The discussion forum about the show is here. Listen in!

And a glass of amontillado (not the full cask, of course).
mhs@20:25

Dinner: leftover turkey burgers, salad, and whatever else we decide to create.
mhs@19:17

Lunch: turkey burgers (fresh off the grill), leftover grilled veggies, and some punjab eggplant from TJ's.

Breakfast: scrambled eggs, an apple, and a banana.
mhs@13:25

Dinner: grilled zucchini and eggplant in a Thai peanut sauce, tossed salad, and leftover halibut in a curry simmer sauce. As it ends up, I should have grilled the veggies without the peanut sauce; the sauce was overpowering. A little olive oil, dash of soy, and some ground pepper would have been ideal.
mhs@20:29

Snacking on TJ's Tropical Monkey Mix.
mhs@14:11

Lunch: leftover grilled turkey sausages, chicken tandoori, and a tossed salad. Gazpacho and some Gouda cheese, too.
mhs@12:34

Breakfast: apples, figs, and dccc.
mhs@06:28

Awesome dinner! Tossed romaine salad, chicken tandoori on the grill, and sauteed mushrooms and onions. Perhaps the glass of amontillado was the finishing touch? Hmmm.. either way, another fine meal at Mike & Laura's!
mhs@20:49

Lunch: gazpacho, tossed salad, and leftover halibut in a curry simmer sauce (from TJ's).
mhs@13:10

mhs@06:34
