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.

As Dr. Frankenstein exclaimed, "It's alive!" :-)

We're running an average of 5000 Kbps from home now! To find out how fast you are running, use the bandwidth speedometer.

Yippee!!! This should be the last post from home that is made over dial-up connectivity! While I live in the "copper state", US West is notorious for it's "Darned Slow Lines"; i.e., I have never connected to anything at better than 26.4Kbps from home. But no longer! Today is installation day for Sprint Broadband, a high-speed digital wireless connection to the Internet. We're looking at 5000Kbps minimum for a very great price!

I'm back from San Jose! :-) For the most part I stayed true to the SCD. I did eat a few non-SCD foods, but was careful to mix them with plenty of SCD foods. So far, no problems. Nevertheless, one never knows how long it will take for something to backfire (pun intended) in the land of IBD. So do as Elaine says, not as Mike does. Got it?!

Anyway, while I was there this article on "all kinds of crappy problems" appeared in the weekly newspaper. The article discusses stress, IBD, colonics, and a book called "Far From Poopin" by Loree Taylor Jordan. I'm not sure how long the link will remain active, so if it appears to be dead then try searching for it manually on the Metroactive site by author (Kelly Luker) or title (Going Concerns).
