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.

Breakfast: fruit, nuts, cheese.
Dinner, yesterday: Buffalo-style chicken wings, Caesar salad, cheeseburger (without the bun).
Lunch, yesterday: another Tucson Link session. The topic of this one was e-Learning; the food was chicken tacos (I made mine with extra lettuce and without the shell).

Breakfast: fruit, SCD yogurt.
Dinner, yesterday: a lovely dinner with our neighbor Madeleine @ Cafe Terra Cotta! What a gorgeous place! The food is very good, but candidly, my wife and I are such good cooks (no humility there!) that often "innovative" and overly presentation-oriented foods just aren't as good as they might otherwise have expected. My meal was very good, but there were a surprising number of flaws in the collective meal, and that really surprised me. Nevertheless, for Tucson standards, this is a great place; perhaps the chef had an off night? Anyway, the decor is awesome, the views of Tucson, the sunset, and the Catalinas are awesome. "Sheila" (the foxy coyote with the feather boa) at the bar is just gorgeous!! My appetizer: Spinach Salad with Grilled Jicama, Roasted Red Bell Peppers, Cherry Tomatoes, Red Onions, Dried Apricots, Kalamata Olives, Honey Roasted Pecans, Anejo Cheese & Vinaigrette; my entree: Sunflower Seed Crusted Salmon on Masa Corncakes, Mole Aji Amarillo & Sunflower Sprouts; my almost completely SCD-illegal dessert: carmelized banana split with a brownie and coffee and vanilla icecream. What were the problems? None at all with the appetizer; the salad was awesome! The salmon was a bit overcooked, and I found it to be a little dry. The carmelized banana was delicious, but (fortunately?) the brownie was not remarkable, and neither was either of the two scoops of icecream, and I therefore ignored them. What else? Well, the prawns stuffed with goat cheese seemed to be jumbo shrimp with goat cheese on top; the chipotle tuna "special of the evening" was a bit too raw and certainly not remarkable. Lastly, Laura ordered a completely SCD-illegal strawberry shortcake which ended up being 2 or 3 chopped strawberries on a poundcake with (decidely delicious) whipped cream.
