Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards | I have known for years I was different but

it really hit me on Sat. DH and I went motorcycle riding with friends all day on Sat. We all stopped for lunch and I couldn't eat anything there. Everyone ate lobster rolls and fries and onion rings. I drank water. I really wasn't hungary at the time but even if I was I wouldn't have eaten. I really didn't feel like going into my whole diet issues either.

The whole day the talk was of ice cream and the best places to go and foods that I can't eat. I felt apart from everyone in a way and very different. We had a great time but it was interesting, made me a little sad and really made me see how different my life is. How I have to think about everyting that I put in my mouth. I can't be a food free spirit.

It is funny how you know but it doesn't really sink in. If that makes any sense at all. I have been faced with these types of situations for a long time but for some reason Sat. really hit home. Maybe it was just the mood I was in all week. Wasn't a good week anyway.
