I am on the Heather's diet for about 2 weeks, and seemed to be doing okay. However, yesterday, I added some grapes an a blended drink with apple and cranberry juice, and I was fine. Today, I ate sweet potatoes and fish for lunch, and afterwards, had a few whole grapes, which I tried to chew into very small pieces.
Lo and behold, about 3 hours later, colon spasm, discomfort, eventually bloating. I guess it must be the grapes, although they seemed fine in the blended drink yesterday. Does anyone else have a similar problem with grapes.
Once I go into spasm like that, it is hard to impossible to rectify until a laxative 3 days later. What do you use when you are in spasm/bloating mode?
Will I always be this sensitive or will it become easier as I stabilise?
