I can do moderate amounts of:
boilled peeled potatoes
pickled beets (not fresh)
boilled mushrooms (no butter)
olive oil with french bread
Everything else gived me stabbing gut pain. If I eat a little bad vegs/fruits, I get a little stabbing gut pain. If I eat a lot, I get a lot of stabbing gut pain, gas and explosive D. That's about as easy as I can make it.
Rice, boilled potatoes and noodles (no butter!!) plus a little salt of a 1/2 teaspoon of mayo for taste are my best bets for safe side dishes. Or bread. Love me that bread.
In Thailand I had white rice, but there'd be little green scallions tucked behind grains here and there. I had to copiously dig out every one. If I missed one during a meal, I'd get the pain. So it was worth everyone looking sideways at the strange little pile of green forming in the corner of my plate while i ate. They didn't have to suffer afterwards!
I did drink coconut oil out of green iced coconuts (cut open right in front of me!) with no problem whatsoever. It's the first new food I've tried in yeeeears with no probs.
HTH!

You're going to get attacks that start about half an hour after you START eating. The trick to getting stable is to eat safe foods only, in small amounts, in small meals throughout the day.
It took me a long time to realize I couldn't have IF foods and stay stable unless I drugged myself up with Imodium and other meds to stop stomach spasms and cut the pain.
Good luck, it takes time. Stay with it.

Thanks, Nelly.
Sounds a lot like me. I'm just sick of trying to be a health nut and please everyone else while spending unnecessary time cramping and in pain and having D and no energy.
(I've got to reprogram my style mind a tad)
So, maybe I'll eat more like you and hold the mayo & say screw it to everyone else. Also, I'm kind of wasting away really fast which is a bad thing.
Kate.
