Regarding cheating       01/14/05 11:57 AM Edit Reply Quote Little Minnie Reged: 04/16/04 Posts: 4987 Loc: Minnesota I do moderate and controlled cheating which really prevents big cheating. The last time I cheated was Sept 5 or so and I got bad for weeks (although it might have been stress). However doesn't Heather say when you are doing ok I little bite of dessert is okay after dinner? This is the sort of cheating I do. Like last week I had 2 bites of pumpkin cake after eating safe food or if we go out to eat I will have 2 bites of hub's dessert. I try to still stay away from dairy and high fat together for my tiny treats and I only have a treat very rarely. The problem is when I am in a bad streak I still want to cheat those little things and I had better not. I will also bake or cook something for others and try one bite to test taste it. These sort of things to me are absolute necessities. If I could never ever have a nibble of anything but the basics I had rather not live. But like I said I do it very rarely and very moderately. As for your diet, it is probably better to play it safe until YOU FEEL it is time to break out of the rut. On the other hand maybe trying other safe food for lunch and dinner that is pretty close but not exact to what you are eating would be good. I guess in the long run you could get vitamin and iron deficient if you don't widen out your diet. You really ought to try some fruits and veg for your health. But do it gradually so you don't stress out about it. Maybe try some of Heather's breads and stuff instead of angel food cake. For instance pumpkin or zucchini bread will give you more nutrition. Also try other root vegetables instead of potatoes (which have little nutrition) since they won't be any harder to tolerate. Ok those are some ideas. Best of luck to you! -------------------- IBS-A for 20 years with terrible bloating and gas. On the diet since April 2004. Remember this from Heather's information pages: "You absolutely must eat insoluble fiber foods, and as much as safely possible, but within the IBS dietary guidelines. Treat insoluble fiber foods with suitable caution, and you'll be able to enjoy a wide variety of them, in very healthy quantities, without problem." Please eat IF foods!
