Thanks for the good wishes and suggestion, everyone. I am continually impressed by the kindness and support shown by everyone in this community. So glad I stumbled upon it. I'm happy to say after a few miserable days, and over a holiday weekend, too! Happily, I'm pretty good at damning the torpedoes and having a good time anyway, food or no food. So I had a great time with my friends while eating fish & rice. Anyhow, some of your suggestions have been very useful. I have gone back to square one and started over with minuscule doses of SFS (Benefiber for now, till my Acacia comes in the mail; hope it's soon!). Gone from a sippy-straw water bottle to a S***b**ks sippy cup (keeps the tea warm); this seems to help too. So, this morning I am able to put on my size twelve flat-front chinos and go out and face the world with a smile. Happily, I do not experience symptoms that are nearly as bad as those some of you wonderful brave people are living with. For me it's mostly inconvenience with just a little bit of misery. (mostly around PMS time ) I am able to draw a lot of inspiration from the people I encounter here. With each other's support and help, we'll all make it.
