Hi there, I am a newbie in that I haven't visited this site for a long time. But I'm back! By the way I have told many people about this site and heather, and her books as they have been invaluable to me. So today I have a question ... Morning time is very tricky for my digestion. I find after i eat my ibs friendly breakfast, English muffin with some honey, or rice cakes and honey, I feel hunger pangs almost immediately after eating? My body is saying eat, eat, eat, yet I have just eaten? Anyone understand this??

Try removing the honey and applesauce.

Honey like high fructose corn syrup has more fructose than glucose. The excess fructose can exacerbate IBS symptoms in some people and change GI motility. You can read more about how excess fructose in honey, apples, mango, watermelon and other foods as well a some other food constituents can make IBS symptoms worse in the first three links in my signature. The approach described in these links is a clinically tested approach to managing IBS symptoms that many of use in conjunction with Heather's diet. It has been shown to reduce symptoms 70-80%.

You should also include some good protein at breakfast to make you feel full. I have egg whites scrambled with some oat milk as protein can be quite filling. I get very hungry almost starving sometimes after breakfast. Having bread and honey is a pretty high GI brekkie it will not fill you up. Maybe try some safe oatmeal but look into that fructose thing aswell as that will effect things if you are sensitive to it. Good Luck!

Thanks roxstar, the reason I eat rice cakes or English muffin is that my tummy is so sensitive in the morning, anything else makes me feels really sick or upsets my gerd and leaves me feeling ill for the whole day. Even egg whites I react to. I do eat a lot of veg usually at eveni g meal and I think this has an effect on how I feel in morning. I love fruit and veg, but they don't love me! A moment I am trying to stabilize using heathers method it's just this morning thing that is a problem for me. I do realize it is high gi but have not yet found anything else that sits well. Oatmeal I love, but my tummy can't handle it. Any heavy whole grain, even quinoa or couscous I have problems with.

I completely understand.
Can you tolerate Bagels at all? Plan white ones? They may be more filling but not sure if you can handle them.

There is a non dairy, non soy yogurt called Almond Dream....not sure if it is available in your area, but, it is very soothing to the stomach first thing in the morning and is good for you too (has some nutritional value other than just bread, etc..) I, too have to ease into eating in the morning and have found this to really help.
