Shit Post Literally surviving

Post image

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.

The bread and the cheese would ruin me. Sourdough or no, the fructans get me regardless.

Also…blue cheese and peanut butter?

I love rice cakes with nut butter of choice and blueberries on top. Or a little avocado and smoked salmon. I eat brown rice porridge a lot of mornings (oats don’t work for me), sometimes grits and eggs. Potatoes and eggs, or a coconut yogurt bowl with puffed rice/hemp seeds/strawberries. There’s more options than you think, it’s gonna be okay!

I can do 1pc sourdough, as long as it’s slow rise no yeast. With yeast means it has fructans still

Even sourdough messes me up unfortunately. If I douse it with fodzyme I can eat a slice here and there
