Question:
I find I can’t tolerate tomato sauce, raw vegetables, particularly lettuce and cucumbers. My stomach acts up for hours. Oh, how I would love to have a nice big green salad, but I don’t dare.No vinegar products of any kind, no citrus juice, and I only drink decaf coffee.I have turned against cheese lately, its too salty, I can’t stand anything salty.I never thought much about the bana, but I did notice the other day, I had a banana and had acid reflux all day.The only thing that agrees with me and causes no problem. I wish someone would come up with an ice cream diet. Irene

Yes gassy veggies such as cauliflower and broccoli are totally off my diet list.

You are right Colleen! Sometimes you have to enjoy the things that taste good and tolerate the results.

Irene: I love ice cream and could eat it all day long…found Edys brand to be sugar free and fat free….and it agrees with me. Used to make my own with sugar free nonfat yogart and pureed fresh fruit…just can’t find my handy ice cream maker…it’s in storage!! I make a yogart shake in morning and put a soy woman’s protein powder I found at Osco and a little frozen fruit..a packet of nutrisweet and it starts my morning off great! Love that nurturing "mother" food!! If you don’t have to worry about sugar have at it! Good luck! Hope this helps…Sandi

Radishes,onions.cabbage…..all the good for us, heart healthy foods are the ones that can make my stomach make me miserable. I love Mexican. Italian. Thai, Cuban but it is becoming a rareity to sit and eat a full meal of these foods. High fat, fried foods cause just about of a major upset. I have tried the bland diet and the diet recommended for IBS as well and I think I will just go on eating the things I like. We have to compromise in so many areas of our lives as it is and we need to eat to live. So while some may think it unwise of me to continue enjoying some foods that may cause me problems, I will raise my fork full of mussels marinara to you and say "you are probably right, but doesnt it smell wonderful?"
