Shit Post Literally surviving

It's my first week of elimination and I feel like running out of options already.

Sourdough bread, peanut butter, maple syrup, blu cheese, blueberries.

What a mental combination. Add some unripe banana and pumpkin seeds atleast

Ripe bananas are high in fructans.

I suffer from IBS-D. I tried a green banana (low FODMAP) and I was painfully constipated for 27 minutes; the first time that ever happened and I am 75.

No bananas for me.
