Here's a brief description of what I usually eat. I'm not usually a morning eater and especially with not feeling great in the mornings, I have been starting with a bowl of Applesauce, about 1 cup or so. I'm usually more hungry in about an hour so I'll eat a package Quaker instant maple and brown sugar oatmeal then. I've been having a cup of peppermint tea in between. I do have my acacia fiber before I eat the first meal of applesauce.
Approx. 2 hours later I might have some mashed potatoes. These have a little salt, pepper, a tiny bit of earth balance non dairy spread. I use a little rice milk to help me mash them up. If not that, I'll have a sandwich on white bread with turkey and mustard. No cheese, nothing else. Today I had a piece of white bread toast with earth balance and one serving of egg beaters, egg whites scrambled. Generally after this I have some more tea depending on how I'm feeling. I'm usually fuller after lunch and don't eat again for a few hours.
Next I might eat another bowl of applesauce or oatmeal.
For dinner I might have 9-10 Sauteed shrimp seasoned with a little Old Bay seasoning (cooked in PAM) with plain white rice. Some cooked,sliced green beans. Before this meal I usually have my other glass of water with acacia fiber.
If I'm up late and I get hungry I might have another bowl of oatmeal or applesauce. I probably eat more of that stuff throughout the day than anything else.
Generally after eating dinner in the evening I start to feel a little bloated up and gassy, lots of trapped gas and discomfort. Maybe because it's a larger meal?
