This is a great answer Syl. Thanks a lot! The only difference I see is that my EVOO has a lot more calories in it. I assume you meant a teaspoon of EVOO, rather than a tablespoon. A teaspoon of the EVOO I have always used, Filippo Berio, is 40 calories....so one teaspoon of EVOO is approximately the same as an egg yolk. A tablespoon is actually 120 calories. I have always figured around 100 calories, consumed, whenever I use EVOO.
I'll check out the links you provided. I've been making a lot of headway in the past week and have been doing a lot of research, particularly on the FM side of things. The links you provide in your signature as well as the other paid links you have provided have been an immense help.
Some of the most frustrating symptoms, aside from the digestion issues, has always been along the lines of 'brain fog', fatigue, and nausea. The changes I've made to my diet over the last couple weeks have really helped out and I'm hoping they continue. The IBS research from this site, combined with the FM recommendations on FODMAPS, has been making a huge difference. Too bad there's just so little to eat! Getting 3,000-3,500 calories a day on a diet like this is difficult.
Thanks a lot
