Managing IBD with a Plant-based Diet

I don't use Cronometer much at all anymore, but decided to input things today to see how it looks. I am never worried about meeting any targets, but it's good to see that even when I don't plan anything out and just go into the kitchen and prepare the quickest meals I know of, I can still get everything I need and more. Note: The trans fat showing up is coming from the French Fries. In reality, there is no trans fat in the home made french fries we make. Also forgot to add 4 small local tomatoes I had in my lunch. The vegetables that show up as cooked were actually steamed, so they were in fact a bit more nutritious than shown here. Drinks not included here, but as usual just water and green tea.

I was on a gluten-free diet for a few weeks. Tonight I realized I ran out of gluten-free bread, so I went back to the old bag of wheat/buckwheat/chia bread in the freezer. I made my usual sandwich with tofu and kale and mustard. 3-4 hours later I started feeling fatigued and depressed, and bloated.

So I will go back on a gluten free diet and see in a month if I want to confirm it, but it looks like I am gluten sen

I thought I'd make a post about all of the things that have been a problem for me leading up to my Crohn's diagnosis and state. I only now realize how bad it was now that I am free of them. What I was taking for granted was completely caused by my own unconscious lifestyle and dietary habits. I suffered from: -Chronic fatigue -Depression and anxiety -Chronic discomfort and pain in my joints, neck, back, and legs (if standing for a while). -Frequent headaches (a few times every week) - Not migraines, but persistent headaches that were very close to unbearable -DSPS (Delayed sleep phase syndrome, which has been following me for over a decade) -No interest in most things and no energy to pursue the little that still interested me -Allergies - This became specially bad around the time my Crohn's was active. It never was such a problem in my life before, they were very mild. -Skin issues - In my teens I had to go on Accutane three times. As a result, my skin became ve
