Awesome day!
4 bowels of apple & cinnamon oatmeal
handful of raisins
Went to school today and added a ceramics class. It was awesome! The teacher is total lax (artists are so lazy!) I made this really cool little dragon head sculpture that is now on the greenware waiting to be put in the kiln. Can't wait to paint it!  Also, this cute guy who I heard thinks I'm totally hot decided to take the class with me, hehehe.

 The pureed papaya is actually a jar of baby food! I felt silly writing down "baby food," so it's low on IF. But I'm trying to work my way to eating more IF and trying out different fruits and thought this would be a good first step.
I do eat whole/"real" satsuma tangerines and find them to be a lot easier to digest than oranges. I can also tolerate canned pineapple, peaches, and pears.

I do well with canned mandiran oranges, fruit cocktail.... pears are SF so I bought some of those in the litte single serving cups on sale and brought them to work for a snack for today (1/25) , but would also work well for my lunch in place of the applesauce...

I love this most especially in the summer. On a hot day I have been known to eat A WHOLE BIG RED PAPAYA, puree. Add a squirt of fresh lime juice and super yum.
It's so creamy & pure SF!!!
It's great grilled with fish/chicken, as well, by the way. It has that "mango" effect.
I think the big red ones taste infinitely superior to the puny suckers.
Sometimes I make papaya smoothies, usually papaya/strawberry, heavy on the papaya part of the quotient.
Pop it in the freezer for an hour and it's like sorbet. Definitely a low cal./high nutrient treat. Wonderful for your skin!

...they're all so good! I love even just the silly table shake! Yes, warped, I know...but you're so right on about them! The Chipolte ones rock, too!
Which ones are your favourites?
Re: red onion--definitely compliments the bitterness of the spinach.
A quick spinach tip: I've been microwaving my baby spinach right in the bag (I get 1 lb.'ers really cheap from Cost Co. as I eat lots of the stuff & fresh is infintely superior to the frozen!) I just poke the bag for a little air circulation & zap for a few minutes & then more or less warm it up with the red onion on the stove. Baby spinach is so naturally high in water that it doesn't need any to micro-cook. So...no water = no nutrients lost. And yes, I've microwaved minced red onion as well, in the past & it turns out lovely. I just Pam spray the plate & "zap."
You're right about garlic, though--a little goes a long way & I've been known to just use the seasoning. So, indeed, I am a lazy-a$$ed cook!
Do you like "Thai Chili Garlic" sauces? Sometimes, a little heat goes a long way, with baby spinach! Chilis are lovely.
Basil is nice with spinach, too. Heck, sometimes I like the zingy sweet tang of a little rice vinegar or seasoned rice vinegar, although lately I favour balsalmic & either a little lemon or lime. I've been avoiding sweet peppers lately, but a few red & yellow pepper strips really compliment spinach & the vitamin C helps make the iron more absorbable to the body. (I have a bit of an anemia problem!) I used to eat eat raw by the pound, pre-IBS & now I just eat it as a cooked salad.
It does "shrink" alot, though, in cooked form, so what appears to be a huge quantity actually isn't after it has been cooked!

Exercise: 30 minutes, dog walking. "Body Blast" aerobics class at the gym. 10 extra minutes stretching (and had waaaaaay less muscle pain this time, thanks for all the tips guys!  )
Breakfast: S'mores Luna Bar
Snack: 2 arrowroot cookies (bad tummy)
Lunch: Leftover grilled chicken with "confetti rice" (rice, mushrooms, carrots, peas)

IBS-A for 20 years with terrible bloating and gas. On the diet since April 2004. Remember this from Heather's information pages:
"You absolutely must eat insoluble fiber foods, and as much as safely possible, but within the IBS dietary guidelines. Treat insoluble fiber foods with suitable caution, and you'll be able to enjoy a wide variety of them, in very healthy quantities, without problem." Please eat IF foods!
