Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards

good luck... talking to your DH... umm... I know a big part of it was seeing how much it did work... also that my mom has Crohns and he knows how diet can affect her helped... and our finding ways to make many of his faves at home in safe ways- I do pizza.. just with special crust that we make here (he found the recipe and prefers it to the pizza joints now) and his gets all the toppings he wants including cheese, and mine gets small amounts of soy cheese over safe for me veggies that get well cooked either on the pizza or by sauteeing in water beforehand...

works well....

also- his learning he can help me feel better by fixing safe for me meals helps.. and knowing he doesn't have to eat what I do... I don't fix 2 meals all the time, but if we're grilling he can have steak or a burger or hot dogs.. if we're making sandwiches his can have cheese and roast beef on occasion... it doesn't always happen, but it happens enough that he doesn't feel deprived.. and he's learning to experiment and like more foods that are safe for me...
