Hey, guys. I'm new to this page and was diagnosed last summer with Crohn's disease and UC. I just recently responded to Remicade treatment and can feel myself heading towards remission (yay!). I really would love to lose the weight from prednisone. What kind of healthy, clean meals can I make? I have been eating a lot of fish and white rice. Is brown rice ok to eat? Would love to replace the white rice, but I worry about the fiber. Please share your ideas!

I can't urge you enough to just listen to your body rather than try to get guidance from others. I spent years before my actual Crohn's diagnosis listening to doctor after doctor about what I should and should not eat. After many frustrating years, I finally decided to just eat what I was pretty sure didn't bother me and wow did it make a difference!! The hard thing to hear is that there is not one answer that works for everyone... try a food a few times in a row and pay attention to your reaction. It could be a very complicated puzzle as mine has been, or it can be very easy with few limitations! Hope that helps just a little...
