Tastes Great. And Finally, Less Filling
THEN
It was a popular Italian restaurant, and I'd eaten a traditional Italian restaurant dinner: bread, salad, and meaty lasagna for dinner, followed by tiramisu for dessert. Approximately an hour and a half later, I had my very first IBS attack.
I spent over an hour on the toilet that first time, doubled over with painful gas and cramps, my backside exploding all over the bowl in a seemingly endless torrent of liquishit spiked with poo pebbles. Never before in my life had I ever felt such pain or smelled such death coming out of any living human being - especially me.
For five hellish years since that terrible night, almost every single morning has begun for me with at least one round of diarrhea – sometimes two or three – accompanied with horrible cramping and abdominal pain. Then of course I felt just awful all day, and I would always have to be mindful of whatever I ate throughout the day to avoid any immediate, explosive attacks; but they would still happen from time to time.
Such was life with IBS.
Or so I thought.
I’d started eating very healthfully a few years ago: lots of grains, fruits and veggies; very low fat content; more whole, natural foods and less processed stuff; mostly water to drink; and lots of soluble fiber. These things that were all supposed to help control the IBS attacks.
Even still, almost every meal gave me indigestion and painful gas, and rotten was truly the best word to describe what came out of me. I couldn't even stand my own brand anymore! Every once in a while, though, I would have a nice, normal, healthy-smelling, solid bowel movement; and that intermittent normalcy was my first clue that it might really be the food.
During the last couple of years I developed carpal tunnel syndrome, then came full-blown arthritis. I started noticing that my ankles would swell up nearly every afternoon, and during just about any meal my entire face would bead up with perspiration. All the while I was attributing these issues to the aging process and pre or peri-menopause.
Then in August I had what I think was either a gallbladder attack or kidney stone. I'm not sure which. Somehow I rode out the waves of intense pain, nausea and vomiting for about two hours, and then it subsided just as I was deciding whether I needed to head to the hospital. This happened immediately after eating a favorite of mine: a lean meat and cheese sandwich.
Thus began anew yet another search for something, anything, to make the digestive problems go away, something that made real sense to explain why even healthy food could cause such distress.
I finally clicked on a link I had ignored many times before because it sounded like bullshit: "IBS cure”. Yeah right… but I was finally desperate enough to check it out. I am eternally grateful I did, because that link led me to Sherry Brescia's Great Taste No Pain* simplified food combining program.
NOW
Starting literally on Day One, the daily IBS symptoms, painful gas, intestinal cramps, and malodorous output ended. Instantly.
On Day Two I could actually feel the increase in energy!
On Day Three the carpal tunnel and arthritis symptoms began to disappear, and my ankles don't swell up in the afternoons anymore. My face doesn't sweat while eating.
I don't feel sleepy after any meal, either... eating invigorates me now! I'm once again eating foods that are forbidden for people with IBS, and I'm sleeping better at night, too. I'm also losing around 3 pounds per week!
All these benefits are happening effortlessly as a result of doing nothing more than simply watching how I eat certain foods together.
Even if you don't have horrid digestive problems like mine, food combining will make you feel better, give you more energy, help you lose any excess weight, and can relieve symptoms of and/or reverse many chronic conditions for which you may take daily medication or supplements. I strongly encourage you to check it out for yourself.
Food combining is the reason I changed my user name from IBSalot to IBS NO MORE.
* You should know in advance that I am an affiliate and will receive a referral fee if you order the full program... but I became an affiliate because I believe in it and am personally seeing more amazing results and benefits every day.
While it would be great if everyone ordered GTNP, it's more important to me that you get help to end your digestive problems, lose excess weight, and feel better every day. Look up "food combining" on the web and do a little research for yourself. There's enough free info out there to make your head spin. GTNP takes guesswork away by providing a suggested meal plan including thirty days of menu options for three meals and two snacks per day, and a recipe book full of properly combined, truly dynamite dishes. And it works!
There's a free trial offer report called "Pain-Free in One Day". Take food combining for a four-day test drive and find out for yourself how eating this way will make you feel as awesome as I do!

Great testimonial, IBSNM. Even though your skin is better, you still need to moisturize your face and neck including the back of the neck. Noone believes that I'm almost 50 because I have been moisturizing my face and whole neck since I was 16. It is no good to have a young face with a neck as wrinkled as a char-pay(the dog). br>_______

IBSNM, go for twice a day on the facial and neck moisturizer. Don't pull your face down when you apply it. Stroke up instead. My Ra Ra taught me this when I was a teen ager.

My almost 70 year old Japanese wife has never used anything other than soap and water on her face, no moisturizers, no cremes, no anything. Her friends refuse to believe that she is more than 45 or 50 and call me a cradle robber.
Love my smooth sweetie pie!!!!

I think genetics have a great deal to do with anyone's predicament. It is the treatment of a patient as a whole - with whole meaning patient/familial history included - that attains the best results.
I think it's great we have a success story on PR. We have had so many suicidal sad sapps write in on the my ass stinks and the my ass really smells pages that we are always reminded of those who have dietary trouble.
Success stories are one of the reasons Poopreport should exist. Humor, first and foremost; but to help others is a nice excuse for a close second.
IBS NO MORE - it would help if you could tell us what the the major old combinations were that you had to say goodbye to, and if you ever cheat for flavor's sake.

I have a problem with people making money off the suffering of others. Food combining works for some, and it is FREE
I better start combining my food differently and makeing better choices because at 139 lbs. I don't fit in anything except Tshirts, PJ's and scrubs. I didn't go to the wedding friday night nor my brother's birthday saturday night because I have nothing to wear. Oh and I have one pair of shorts that fit. If I go to the store I would have to buy size 12 or 10 petite and sittingpretty doesnt want to buy such large sizes.

People at work don't think I'm fat but my family knows I'm fat. And I can see and feel the fat. I have been making groceries at Dollar General. I know, I know. I have been making bad choices and I am always hungry. I must do something now or I will be weighing 150 when I turn 50. I have never weighed more than 147 in college. And that was almost 20 years ago. I'm a petite little fatty. Don't let the # fool you because I am fat and a 10 or 12 petite is just too big. I thought I was big, this time last year, when I had to go buy size 8 petite. I look like a pilsberry dough girl with skinnyish arms and legs, not fat ones like the dough boy. It's mostly obvious in my belly that never goes down even when I'm skinny. It doesn't look as bad as it sounds to outsiders. But, to me, it looks worse than it really is.

My bone frame is probably really small for an 8 to be a fat size for me. That's all. It doesn't mean that all you wear an 8 is fat, just me.

Ibbie, I ate the meat-free ravioli for breakfast and the salad for lunch and dinner. There were no croutons on the salad. I didn't make it to the grocery but I did get my oil changed and filled my tank with gas. After work today I must go to The Loft to find some clothes to fit my petite lilliputian fat self. I dread going.

Ha ha, funny, Bilgeburp. I have gotten my fair share of hand-me-down clothes for free, Bilgeburp. I'm not about to buy them. When I was 80 pounds, I wore a child's size 10. At that time I had a neice that age, so I borrowed some of her clothes. My arms and legs were a little too long but at least my pants stopped falling off from where my butt should have been.

Having not been able to get many tangible results out of life lately, the good thing for me about multiphasic pooping is that I feel like I accomplished something impressive.
Every poop is not to be told to every body.
It must be some of yesrdays poop because I didn't poo yesterday. I didn't take any miralax either. I think my bowel likes it when I eat less and the food uncombining method too. I even feel a little lighter. Ha!

I gained another pound,Ibbie< since yesterday and I don't know how. Yesterday, I ate the last of the pizza and a chocolate cupcake and a mounds spider for breakfast. Soup and crackers for lunch and nothing for dinner. That wasn't much food and yet I gained more weight. The pizza is all gone now and hopefully I will make it through the weekend without getting another one.
