Yeah I guess its just very hard to understand for me because I did low carb for soo long that all but the carrots, mushrooms and squash seem like junk food on the safe list. My diet used to consist of Ezekial toast with PB for breakfast, and coffee, romaine lettuce salad with grilled chicken, and then for dinner it was chicken and veggies, or eggwhites in a low carb tortilla and a sugarfree fudgsicle for dessert( only 4 carbs and 40 cals)
I ate this way for about 2 years except the occasional dinner out with my hubby and holidays and stuff.
This way allowed me a BM every other day, but gas after every meal....then usually twice a month when i was stressed or didnt get enough sleep or who knows why I would get backed up and not be able to "go" for 3-4 days and then all of a sudden of the 3rd or 4th day i would have to run to the bathroom with D. And as I said GAS and bloating after every meal. and my tummy always feels distended
So i dont know I think I just need to scale things back and maybe try one thing a at time, I went from 0 to 100 because I got so excited that this was the answer to my misery
So now I think its better for me mentally if I just go back and try each thing. So I am going to go back to my eating and try adding heathers fiber. maybe that will help and allow me to get off the aloe that i have been taking for 2 years. Also I am going to continue to not do any dairy. I never drank milk b4 but as I said I did have a little cheese here and there and the fudgesicle nightly.( im a sweets girl and this was my only lil sweet i would allow myself)no more though 
so ill start with those things and see how i do....but its just soo confusing cause you look at posts like tatyana wrote and basiclly all she ate was rice,oatmeal, wheat bread, white bread and fruit. I would be a blimp! but thats what made her have 3 BMs a day so I think ok maybe thats what I need to do....but i try it and no it has the opposite affect on me.....
anyway so i guess i jsut have to go back and take baby steps. thanks for your reply...still pretty down but trying to have faith
