Some Interesting Blogs and Forums

Upon doing a Google search for "gaining weight on the Specific Carbohydrate Diet", I came across several pretty interesting blogs and forums. Here they are (short list):
  • HealingWell.com Crohn's Disease Articles - array of articles on IBD and Crohn's
  • HealingWell.com Crohn's Disease Forum - seems to be quite a bit of activity on there, including folks that are very well read up on the latest IBD research studies. I was pretty impressed by people's knowledge.
  • Fanatical Adherence - blog from a young man on his attempt to have a "fanatical adherence" to the SCD diet. Interesting note, he regrets having taken himself off meds too soon as he developed a stricture in his colon as a result of excessive inflammation -- leading to a resection surgery. He continues his diet. He's 5'10" and at one point was as low as 115 lbs, but now a healthy 150 lbs. (Although, ominously, he hasn't posted anything in about a year).
  • Living With Crohn's Disease - collection of blog postings via WordPress that cover a wide range of topics from the basics of the disease, to treatment options, to drug side-effects, to dealing with your doctor, etc.
