Hi Jordy,

Sorry you aren't feeling well, hope this helps you...
By breakfast is:
Fiber One cereals with 2 tblsp of flax seeds(whole and soaked overnight with 3 prunes)and rice milk. I also eat the prunes with that. I eat a little bit of fruits like mango, pineapple and papaya. I make me a very small Oat bran pancake and I melt a slice of cheese on top. I drink
a little papaya juice to take my supplements with. I drink a cup of peppermint tea and then lots of water.

I only snack on something like grapes, hempseeds organic bar with seeds like sunflower and pumpkin seeds. Dry papaya
fruit.

My dinner is:
A bowl of lentil soup with some melted cheese on top.
A plate of brown rice with beans(like red, pink, kidney, pinto, haba and I'm going to try black beans soon)a little lettuce and alfafa and baked/broil fish.
I eat some papaya/pineapple for dessert.
Drink some papaya juice to take my supplements with and then a cup of peppermint tea.
I wait about 45 min and then I drink lots of water while I'm on the treadmill for about 1 hour. That helps me so much after I eat.

I forgot to mention that I also drink lots of water as soon as I wake up in the morning to get my bowels moving.

For the past couple weeks or so I tried to add some more SF foods to my diet and I got C and hard stool right away. There was a day that I wasn't even able to eat nothing but breakfast b/c the pain cramps was too much. I even had to drink some MOM to help me the next morning. I don't know why SF isn't good for me, but I know it works for others.

Last night I started taking the Magnesium Calm, 1 tsp with a hot cup of water, like a tea and this morning went more than usual. I don't if it's just a coincidence, but I will keep trying it. I know it works really well for Lisa Marie.

I need to say that I'm not really stable as others, but to keep me going without having to take meds to have a BM, I need to eat this way.

Maybe you should try to eat more IF and little less SF see how you feel.

I will pray for you. You can email me if you like.

Blessings,
Abi
