I created a collection with HTC Share and I want to share it with you. Click the link below to check it out. https://share.htc.com/q8mdzIlC4 "FODMAP here I come!"
I have IBS. Today was my first day controling my FODMAP intake (carbs that are hard for the body to break down) and I feel amazing! I had coffee, cornflakes in rice milk, and a hard boiled egg for breakfast. Lunch consisted of my usual turkey and swiss sandwich with mustard minus the bread. In its place, I had lettuce, tomatoes, and cucumber. My snacks were gluten free brownies and a piece of corned beef. And my dinner is on display for you: the best pork fried rice I have ever had and some pineapple on the side. I don't feel deprived, my stomach has not been protesting my food choices, and I can actually feel myself digesting properly. It's fantastic!
If you've got food problems, know that you're not alone. You can overcome them and have a healthy relationship with your body and food. Know too that sometimes it's a bit of a journey. I've been trying to name my mystery symptoms for years, let alone find a viable option for treating them. Don't give up, and don't stop believing that you're worth saying no to temporary pleasure for a more fulfilled lifestyle. Food was made to be good for you. You can enjoy it and still be healthy. It's just a process of learning what your body's optimum fuel is. So don't give up.
You may just discover something delicious along the way.
Happy eating! ;)
