Weird Looks       12/16/04 10:07 AM Edit Reply Quote belinda Reged: 10/09/03 Posts: 474 Loc: Toronto, Ontario, Canada By now I'm so used to getting weird looks re: my IBS diet, drink (lack of it!) and lifestyle that I am totally immune! Frankly I don't care what people say or think as long as I don't get sick. We should all have the experience of walking a mile in another's person's shoes -- especially an IBS person's shoes -- before we judge and give weird looks. There is NO WAY I am going to eat or drink anything that isn't good for my IBS in order to please someone else or to fit in socially. I'm long past that stage. I also don't see why I should have to offer any reason for my diet choices except perhaps to vaguely indicate they are for "health reasons." My main goal is to keep my IBS under control and to not get sick. I would choose this option any day over social acceptance. I hope I don't sound like an IBS Scrooge!
