YOU NEED TO BE PATIENT!
If you are looking for a fast miracle cure, you will not find it here. You will not find it ANYWHERE, because THERE IS NO CURE FOR IBS.
Bloating is one of the hardest symptoms to control. You will NOT have a cure for your bloating in 3 days, 3 weeks, or possibly even 3 months.
Heather did not "mislead" you into anything, so get that straight right now. Heather's diet WORKS for the people who are willing to understand it, follow it, and GIVE IT TIME TO WORK.
No, it isn't fair. LIFE isn't fair, kiddo. I've had IBS since I was 12, I never had your precious "college life", I've never been able to go out, have a good time, and just eat something without thinking about getting sick afterwards. It ISN'T fair, and it totally sucks, but you know what? Thinking that and whining about it doesn't change ANYTHING. You still have IBS.
You know what? Go ahead, go out, have a good time, get drunk, and suffer with your symptoms. If you don't care enough about yourself to make the necessary changes to help yourself feel better in the long run, how can you possibly expect US to give a sh*t?
PS - Bakery bagels sometimes have milk in them, which could be part of the problem. Try Thomas's.
