Hi Sharon, It's nice to run across a fellow-chocoholic. I used to have chocolate something everyday until alas! the IBS-C got me. I do miss my old friends: Cadbury, Hershey, Nestle & M&M.
I'm not sure which is worse since I started with D but have now become totally C which is truly terrible as well. It is so bad (yesterday I had a really bad attack) that now I am afraid to take a nibble of anything that could trigger me. The wierd thing is that I thought I was sticking to the diet when I had the bad attack but perhaps it was the apple juice or chinese mango thingy that I tried (I'm always looking for other safe, ready-made stuff that I can just buy and eat for a "fix" of something sweet). I have to try all the choco recipes that I printed (I would kill to be able to eat a chocolate chip cookie though), but we don't have soya butter in Trinidad (Caribbean ). Oh well - I'll try the cookies without it and see what happens. I did discover that Fireside marshmallows seems to be safe. Hmmmmm maybe my attack wasn't because of the apple juice; since I had a whole bag of marshmallows about 3 days ago, or perhaps the combination? Who knows!
Sorry just realized that I've gone on-and-on-and-on!
Lisa.
PS. I'm so thirsty for info that I've read the entire message board!
