I use four packets of Stevia-Plus a day...
The rest of my fiber comes from food. I can actually tolerate salads now which I could not before. I do eat a lot of Asian food which seems to help me "go".
I still give most of the credit to my being stable to having managed to come to a place of having peace in my life. It seems that my triggers have always been more stress related than the food I eat.
Milk, cottage cheese and ice cream are absolute no-no's for me as is red meat and fried food. I am not big on lots of sauces either...alfredo, gravy and such but I have never liked that anyway.
I had quite a conversation with my mother the other day which was very emotional for me, I went through the gamut of hurt, disappointment, anger and such. I was ready for my stomach to seize up and prepared for "contractions" and would you know that I did OK? A little tension in my gut thus cramping and mild bloating but nothing like it used to be. I took some time to disect the conversation, whine via e-mail to Michelle (ecmmbm), cried all day, prayed as I cried and cried some more all of it which seemed to help though in the past it would have been bad news. In the past, after a day like that I am usually in the floor hurting so bad I want to cry but I did very well...it was awesome. It was God!
