I've only just begun on the IBS journey but already I've noticed a difference since beginning to read Heather's book. (The First Year...) I actually did as suggested and ran out and bought some Chammomile and Peppermint teas before sitting down to read beyond the beginning of the first chapter. I've only just developed the problems associated with IBS in the past couple of months and was convinced that there had to be a way to control this through diet and wham! tripped over Heather's wonderful site, and thusly, her books. Of course, I'm suffering today because I just HAD to try a little bit of chinese food yesterday (beef with broccoli, peppered steak and fried rice - I didn't have enough to even fill me up, but I'm paying for it today so I won't be doing that again anytime soon). Just wanted to say hi and love the site, it's already proved helpful, I plan on starting up the yoga routine listed here (I don't do quite all of the positions normally) tomorrow. FYI, I have GERD too and the Peppermint tea doesn't cause mine to act up - so don't be afraid to try it if you have acid reflux - you never know, it might not cause you any problems. Take care all,
Jenny
PS: I'm still in the I want a CHILI CHEESE DOG phase!
