I figured that I've got to find my own diet. I treat the EFI diet as guidelines rather than strict rules. It's my own body so I should know best. I still have bad days (I just had a bad attack last Friday) but then again, I also had attacks when my diet was a lot more restrictive.
Very well said! That sums up my philosopy/approach as well.
Meal one
rice bread w/raw honey and earth balance
coffee w/silk
Meal two
1/2 banana
Trader Joe's organic corn chips
Black iced tea made w/soymilk instead of water
Meal Three
Organic basmati rice
tofu in Trader Joe's yellow curry sauce
Snack
organic baby carrots
snow peas
Meal Four
more basmati rice
chicken/tofu w/Trader Joes RED curry (have not tried this one yet, hopefully I will not have a problem)
mango
small salad
Snack
dark chocolate

There's always a plate for you in Seattle Fen!
After much deliberation, I finally made peace w/eating white rice as long as it is organic. I spent 10 years spouting the merits of brown rice and the evils of white rice to anyone who would listen - and so of course now I find out that brown rice was contributing to my discomfort. Brown basmati rice does have more fiber, I'm assuming IF, of course and it takes twice as long to cook, so I'm gathering that it's coarser and likely to be hard on my body.
so I can live w/it if it's organic - not that it makes any difference, it just makes me feel better hee hee

Yeah, I don't think I'll find your food brands in the US. Is it store brand or fresh bakery?
Oh, I hear ya on the sick of supplement comment too. I am too...and so expensive. I take peppermint caps, triphala, digestive enzymes, gas stop, SFS (little), Natural Calm, probiotic.....Don't even know if they help
