Dragonfly, what an insightful post! I tend to agree with you on most points - french fries are bad for me as well regardless of what I'm doing or what frame of mind I'm in when I eat them. However, when I was on vacation last month, I ate pretty much as I wanted and had fewer problems - I ate multigrain bread, yogurt, chips, all sorts of foods I used to eat and no longer do! And the past few times I went to the beach, I was obviously quite worried about getting bloated - there's no hiding in a bikini! But it didn't happen, and I think the relaxing power of the beach was stronger than my worry!
My problem isn't exactly the same as yours - I don't have D so don't ever really have to run to the bathroom. However, I'm constantly constantly anxious about getting bloated. And it seems like the more I check in down there, the more bloated I get!
Clearly the key is just relaxing! I don't think anyone's ever disputed that! The question is how?!?!?
