I call this my" never leave home with out it bag"! Usual contents is immodium,gas x, tums, safe snack bars ( I can eat granola bars and nutrigrain bars), and rice cakes; bottle of water, extra undies and maxi pads (in case I have liquid gas! ) Only time this bag is not with me is when I go my walks or gone for a few minutes. Your survival bag sounds great! Also keep doing the food journal! I've been doing a journal now for about 10 yrs and it does help! Take care Sue
