Hello and welcome back to my blog! I am just wondering if anyone has a recommended app that they use to keep track of your IBD?  I used to use a great app, but unfortunately, it got taken off the app store. I like to be able to journal my food because it can be helpful to look back on what I ate on any given day, and to make sure that I am eating a balanced meal.  I like to also track my weight, Hydration,  exercise, and bowel movements, as well as medication and notes that doctors have given me.

In December 2018, I got diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis which, I soon after found out, has many dietary restrictions. SCD Banana Bread Since I was young, I not only had a love for baking, I also have had an undeniable sweet tooth. If you know about the SCD diet, than you know, that you are not allowed to eat ANY refined sugars.  When I started out I thought "But how can I live without sugar?
