 This is probably one of my favorite UC friendly meals to have. It's simple and delicious. 

Tilapia and Rice Recipe

Ingredients

  • 1 tilapia filet 
  • olive oil
  • salt
  • garlic powder

  • 2 cups of rice
  • Shredded cheese (any kind)
Directions

  1. Put 2 cups of rice in rice cooker or pot
  2. Before you put water in, put a dash of olive oil in rice and mix until the rice looks shiny and coated (this will make the rice not stick together). Then put 4 cups of water in with 1 tsp of salt. Leave to cook.
  3. Heat up small pan to medium heat 
  4. Put thawed tilapia filet in a small to medium sized bowl and coat in olive oil
  5. Sprinkle seasonings on each side of tilapia
  6. Put a little oil in pan and cook tilapia on both sides, 4 minutes on each side

Definitely Not Anxiety

Currently, I am diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis and have known this for about two years coming up on three. However, I have had ongoing health issues since I was about 12 years old. I remember the day very clearly when I started having some problems physically. I woke up one morning and (I'll just say it, I'll be getting very personal on this blog) my period had started. Uncomfortable as usual. Painful as usual. This time though, I felt sick. So, I laid down on the couch. I felt okay, but then after a bit I started throwing up. Ever since that one day, I started feeling sick and throwing up every morning for months on end.

Colonoscopy

-
 I was 18 when I got my first colonoscopy. Just a few weeks shy of my 19th birthday. Shortly after I had gone to the doctor after getting fired from my babysitter job, I was referred to a gastroenterologist. At first, they thought I may have IBS (irritable bowel syndrome), but they told me I should get a colonoscopy to be certain. So, they sent me home with the lovely colon cleanser kit. I had to go one full day without eating and drink the strong laxative the night before the procedure and the morning of. Luckily, my dad was kind enough to pay for the nicer laxative, so it didn't taste too bad.  For colonoscopy prepping, I would recommend getting the bathroom situated and comfortable before drinking the laxative, because you will be in there for a while. It takes about 10 minutes for it to really start working. Get your laptop or phone, some sort of entertainment, while you wait for it to go through your system. I personally had my laptop and watched The Lord of the Rings .  I was

There are no measurements in this recipe, and it takes minimal ingredients to make. Potato Wedges Recipe Ingredients:  4 potatoes (any size, the bigger the better) Italian seasoning Garlic powder Salt Olive oil Pam spray (optional) Directions:   Preheat oven to 400 degrees F Rinse potatoes ( Note: If you are in a flare, peel the potatoes .
