Pages: 1 Carb alternative to avoid cramps?       #370269 - 09/22/13 01:38 PM Edit Reply Quote minks Reged: 08/08/10 Posts: 47 Loc: Newport Beach, CA I have IBS-C. I cramp when I look at a vegetable so I have to eat something to offset it. This has been potatoes. (Rice constipates me) What can I eat besides potatoes? I'm gaining weight and I need to find something else. I can't eat soy either. Suggestions please. Minks -------------------- IBS-C Started out of the blue end of May 2010.

Presumably if you are gaining weight you are eating other carbs. What are these other carbs?

But I have a carb addiction so I need to find other things to eat to help with the cramping so I'm not tempted by potatoes. If I can completely get rid of them that would be fine but I need something. I also have no bread or crackers or wheat around my addiction is that bad. Thanks. -------------------- IBS-C Started out of the blue end of May 2010. I have Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and GI problems are pretty common with that. I've been fairly lucky up til now.
