HI EVERYONE! I had no idea that my post caused such an uproar, I just looked at it today and realized that it caused a big controversy. I did not mean for that to happen at all! I guess I was just trying to say that for ME, not worrying so much about what I eat has been my biggest helper for IBS... Also, it's not that I'm eating EVERYTHING at all, I'm just eating a lot of chocolate and dairy, which I thought were huge No-nos, and neither have been a prob for me at all. I am not, however, eating fried foods, greasy foods, and almost everything I eat is organic and very healthy... I guess I should have phrased my post very differently because I more meant that eating more foods and not worrying is what has helped my IBS, but I am far from cured from pain, bloating, and occasional D and C... And I was wondering if anyone else had tried the same and had similiar results.
Also I did not realize, until recently, that I was actually prone to an eating disorder, and that's why this website effected me so negatively. I love the support that people gave me, but I became obsessed with not eating anything on the "not safe" list, and only eating safe foods, cutting my diet down to next to nothing and DEFINATLY having an eating disorder. I told everyone, and TRUTHFULLY THOUGHT, that I was losing weight because my digestion was so bad, and that I couldn't digest anything. But time and reality have shown that I really can digest a lot of foods, and that really I lost so much weight because I had restricted my diet to so little food a day based on fear. Now that I hardly ever come to this site and read about every single food that may give me an upset stomach, I find that if I just eat consciously and fairly safely, I'm fine, and if I'm not, like tonight, I just keep going with my life and don't obsess over it... and I feel much better.
Just wanted to clear things up!! Hope I didn't upset anyone too much.
Funny thing is, after asking millions of questions, the only time Heather has ever commented on anything I've written is a post that everyone was pissed at!!
