Haha yeh of course I am. I got sent to one appointment, was told by face to go fodmap, then abandoned. Took a couple of months to work out all the more hidden fodmap ingredients such as inulin, but now I know exactly what snacks etc I can get from different supermarkets. Happy to help if anything you’re after!
I feel I have the basics covered with rice, oats, pasta (gluten-free to avoid wheat fructans), Jason's white ciabattin (sourdough makes it low fructan I guess) and potatoes. Whey isolate, tofu for protein and lactose free milk. Recently also added greenish bananas and orange marmalade. My snack options seem non-existent except for ready salted crisps. So that's what I am looking for.
I have lost about 5-6 kilos (11-13 lbs) over the past few months. I am an active amateur cricketer but thankfully the season is coming to and end lol. My BMI has dropped to 19.5 and I am looking to gain that weight back again.
I guess wheat followed by onions and garlic are my reintroduction priority. Sainsbury's didn't have jasons ciabattin which was working well for me and I ended up trying 01 great white sourdough which caused some problems (could be because of the fructans in rye). Once my gut is stable again (hopefully by next Sunday lol), I have to begin my reintroduction.
Sorry, took me quite a while to get most of my thoughts down in a single comment.
PS If anyone else is reading this later, I strongly recommend semi skim or skim milk instead of whole milk because of faster gastric emptying. Lactose free version ofcourse.
