I've been on that ensur, candy diet. :) seriously!
meat is actually a good thing to give up .. my doctr said if i want meat to ony have filet minon .. cause i guess its not as tough as others and there is no fat ... when you body is hungry you may not know you are hungry but it sends off signals which makes you crave sugar and carbs ..about 3 months back all i would eat was candy
food made me sick so i would drink ensures.. and eat candy all day ...
I have Crohn's and steering away from meats cant be a bad thing as its harder for the digestive system to break down meat.
Im having my first flare up since i was diagnosed several years back, my Dr's are having a tough time getting it under control and i also am craving carbs and sugar. Wonder why that is, i'll ask my Dr next appt.
I know this wasnt an answer but know your not going through this alone.
