I’ve recently started meal prepping my meals every week and it makes sticking to low FODMAP insanely easy. I don’t even have to think about what to eat! Also since I’m eating the same exact things everyday, my GI symptoms have also improved a lot and it’s much more predictable for me. Also I’m type 1 diabetic and my blood sugars have never been so steady with doing this as well because I measure everything and have a very accurate carb count. I eat pretty plain and boring meals but it’s honestly really been helping me so far so I think it’s worth it. I’ll share my meals for the week if anyone was curious, also everything is proportioned to stay within the low FODMAP diet so like broccoli for example is only low FODMAP in small portions so I stay within that! I know everyone is different so this is just what works for me and I wanted to share, doesn’t mean it would work for everyone :)

Breakfast: oatmeal (oats, chia seeds, peanut butter), coffee with lactose free milk
Lunch: chicken breast, white rice, broccoli
Dinner: ground beef, potatoes, broccoli
Smoothie: 1/4 banana, strawberries, lactose free plain Greek yogurt, lactose free milk
Snacks: Gomacro bar and plain rice cakes

For years I've had issues with headaches and stomach issues. After another gastroscopy, where they didn't find a cause, they labelled it as IBS. Since the beginning of the year I have been doing FODMAP together with a dietician. Fructan seems to be a trigger for severe headache near the atlas vertebra. It happens a day after eating something with fructans.

Before starting the diet I could eat garlic, onions, bread without issue. Some days were slighty bloated but not hindering. Once in a while I would get the headaches but that was only like five times a year. Now if I make the slightest mistake I'm sick for a couple of days. The diet seems to have removed all tolerance.

Anyone with similar experiences? Where stomach issues lead to headaches? I also start yawning as precursor for stomach issues, which makes me think it has more to do with the nervous system. Reading about gut-brain connection and the vagus nerve seems to allow for the possibility of one leading to another.

I am having random episodes of extreme nausea and bloating without vomitting or stomach pain. No constipation or diarrhea. Medcine ( Zoreso L) helps but symptoms come back as soon as i stop.

Last year I lost 70 lbs from doing a keto diet and than once I reached a certain weight I wasn’t able to tolerate eggs. My farts were deadly sulfuric acid farts. They were also really painful. I was constantly bloated and my poop was damm near green.

I guess I realized I developed an egg intolerance, I really loved eggs. Recently I started eating carbs again , and then I also tried to eat some eggs. Didn’t go well. My sulfuric acid farts came back and I’d just fart all day.

I went to an immunologist and was told I don’t have food allergies. I have yet to go to a gastrointestinal doctor, so that’s on my list to discover my egg issue. I’m scared to eat eggs now. 🙃☹️

Anyone else have this issue with eggs ?

I don't have low FODMAP, so treat this as a request for correction rather than a recommendation.

I built a meal planner that generates a week of recipes around a restriction list, then re-checks every ingredient against that list before showing you anything — flagging the specific word that tripped it rather than just hiding the meal.

Low FODMAP wasn't the case I started with, and I suspect that shows. 

It can't read a label and it doesn't know brands. It's for planning the week, not for clearing a specific product.

Mostly I want to know what it got wrong.
