Welcome to me!
I've been adjusting to a gluten-free lifestyle for almost a year now as a way to cope with my migraines and it has been working beautifully on that regard! In the last 4 months though I have been having major issues with my stomach. Pain after eating certain meals (I haven't been able to figure out what those are yet, hence the rest of my story)... Nausea... Abdominal cramping... Just all sorts of no fun things... My gastroenterologist says that I basically have IBS but of the stomach instead of the bowel. So earlier this week he told me that I need to try the low-FODMAP diet. I'm already entirely gluten-free, so at least 1/2 the battle is already won, but going without onions and garlic and milk?!? I'm not sure what I'm going to do with my life!! Thankfully I like to cook, so I won't starve, but it is going to be a bit of a challenge. The internet was my best resource when I had to go gluten-free, but I was a little underwhelmed with the amount of information about the low-FODMAP particularly compared to all the information out there about gluten-free. So... I figure while I am trying to work my way through the next 2 months of only low FODMAPs I'll post what I'm cooking and hopefully help someone else in the process!
