Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards

Thanks! I work in the scanning dept of a local store. I like it for the most part, some days are all data entry but at least people come in and chat. I think this store is run well and pays well but not all stores are the same. It is nice to know if I need food I can buy whatever I want to eat! You should see what people eat on their breaks! Tons of food. They might as well hand over their paycheck.
I think I might try jerky or smoked breast. I wonder if I would like egg sandwiches. They used to make me throw up. I have a doctors note that says I can eat and drink whenever I want to.

I am not fat really, probably 3 pounds heavier than I was a couple months ago, but I am too scared to weigh myself. When I went to the doc last week I was fully dressed and left my heavy coat on too! I feel fat because I have been eating more than in summer. I have not noticed clothes not fitting unless I am bloated. In winter when I bloat more I feel fat no matter what. Even my butt seems to bloat!

--------------------
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!
