Guest guest Posted May 6, 2003 Report Share Posted May 6, 2003 Welcome! my friend's daughter has IBS and it's no joke. You must really be disciplined to stick to such a strict diet. Give us a few more details if you want. Age, kids etc. Jinx Re: TAMMY/Welcome Hi Sue, Thanks for the warm welcome - you guys all seem so supportive I just new I would be welcome here! Yes, the diet was hard at first. I typically eat berries and an apple for breakfast or oatmeal with cut up fruit. For lunch I had a hard boiled egg veggies and fruit till I was full. And for supper brown rice or a baked potato some kind of meat, usually a stir fry and lots of veggies and usually a salad. I feel very full and satisfied. Maybe just a little psychologically deprived! For a snack in the evening some popcorn with a little butter and salt or fruit if I want. At first it was hard but it's easy now . I had to put a lot of time thinking baout my meals but it's easier now, the first 3 days were brutal! Tammy Re: TAMMY/Welcome Hi Tammy, My name is Sue, I live in Fla with my hubby and 2 sons and have about 80lbs to lose. Since I joined a week or so ago I have gained (!!) 4 lbs (water weight I hope) but am now back to my starting weight of 232. Just wanted to say " Welcome " . I'm too new at this myself to have any answers for your questions, but know that lots of the gals will. Congrats on doing so well on such a restrictive diet for 2 whole weeks!! What can you eat? Just lean meat, certain fruits and veggies? Don't know that I could stay on that indefinitely. Sounds VERY healthy, but I would miss my carbs way to much! You will enjoy this group immensely and learn lots. Best of luck to you in your efforts. Sue from Fla Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
