Pages: 1 Ate "unsafe" foods but didn't have attack?       #286889 - 10/18/06 09:17 AM Edit Reply Quote hms05 Reged: 09/14/06 Posts: 33 I'm wondering if stress/anxiety is truly my main culprit. Just got back from a vacation to a wonderful resort. The food was FABULOUS! I followed some "rules" with regards to eating and never overate but honestly I ate alot of unsafe foods and did just fine! Hmmm...is that b/c I was relaxed? I did take Imodium the day we left but that's all I needed. And I was hungrier there than I have been in a long time! I feel like I'm more relaxed about my stomach now and wonder if I'm doing better than I thought. Anyone else had this experience?

Sometimes I can eat stuff that's bad for me and be fine, and sometimes I'll be sick as a dog. Sometimes stuff doesn't catch up with you for a few days. It could be that stress exacerbates yours, or you could just have gotten lucky!

It depends on where I am on my menstrual cycle too. If I'm in between, I can eat anything. If it's a few days before ovulation or a few days before my period, no matter what I eat will come out Stress does contribute too though. I had it bad at my grandmother's funeral in August and I thought I'd be safe because I was at the "in between" times of my cycle. My belly was really bad that day so I KNOW stress made it worse. -------------------- ~~~Lisa~~~ Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator     Pages: 1
