Yeah, fruits and veggies are tricky. We need to eat them but we have to do it carefully. I would avoid eating them during work hours until you figure out what you can tolerate.
For breakfast, why not try a fruit smoothie? Add soy milk, a banana, a dash of honey and any peeled fruit you like, or even strawberries/blueberries. If the fruit is frozen, you have a nice cold, thick smoothie to eat. I find this the safest way to eat fruit. Blended and with the banana and soy milk it's much easier to tolerate.
Then, try COOKED veggies at supper. Start with stuff like sweet potatoes, squash, carrots. Remember, the more mashable a veggy is, the easier it is to digest. Ie. carrots mash easy and broccoli doesn't mash hardly at all. And, broc is a major gas producer. Try these AFTER you get home from work. With any luck, you will eventually be able to tolerate some fruits and veggies at work. Just take it slow and listen to your body.
