How do you manage travel and your diet. I want to travel to another state for my granddaughter's graduation.

Travel and diet
It isn't easy, but it can be done. 
I have been SCD since 1/08. My family etc will never understand why I prefer to stay home, but the past two summers we opted for just two nights at the shore with a quick car ride, as that took me 20 hours of prep and cooking. I do have chronic Lyme, so it's not just an SCD thing, but still, it takes a lot to go places for more than a couple of hours. To stay safe I NEVER eat out, or eat anything not prepared by me, in my safe kitchen \nI can't have nuts, honey, etc etc etc etc , lol - so it is not an option for me, but I would think taking Digestive Wellness already made food etc would help.\nEileen\nHappy Healthy New Year to you and yours!!

It depends on how I'm traveling. If by car then I can take a cooler take a few things, like yogurt, or premade food i can reheat. Hard boiled eggs are always nice, quick snacks to have around. Fresh fruit. I try to always have a fridge where I'm going to be staying. Salad bars at grocery stores are helpful. I sometimes just end up eating a lot of salads lol..not great. Eating out is not always a great option either depending on what's available, and i'm not great about asking what's in the food. I haven't tried this yet, but I know that rice cookers can steam veggies, and I think some people even cook meat in them, but having to bring all my own cooking utensils/supplies sounds like a whole new beast to deal with. Good luck, I hope you enjoy her graduation!
