I know this has been discussed but now that I'm trying to be more proactive about the gas factor, I need some direction on how to proceed/eliminate/add. As of this point, I have not had any problems with whole wheat and/or most fruits (eaten with sf of course)...no problems meaning no d attacks. However, even though I feel generally stable, I cannot shake the gas/bloat. The irony is that the other night I ate french onion soup and I was actually fine afterwards, go figure. Yet I did notice that a few times when I have eaten grapes I have gotten gas. And it's so terrible...foul odor that makes me so embarrassed. It seems to start about 2-3PM daily and continue until the next morning.
So I realize that if I eat basically "breakfast foods" like oatmeal (raisins are fine), bagels, rice cakes, etc....I don't get the gas. But I'm not sure if the IF that I have via fruit and/or whole wheat is the culprit. I am going to avoid WW for awhile and see what happens. Yet as far as fruit goes, which fruits are okay for a fructose sensitivity and are still IF (I need to get the IF in there as I lean toward C now). I figure if I stick to my SF foods plus add the fruits one at a time and don't do any veggies at first, I'll know if fructose is a problem. It's too hard to tell now b/c by the time I eat my veggies (usually with dinner, sometimes tomato at lunch), I'm already gassy. I swear I think turkey causes some gas in me too when I eat cold cuts on a sandwich.  And I am aware of ketchup with HFCS and syrup/dressings...any other major things I should be looking out for? My jelly does not have HFCS. Any help would be appreciated. THanks.
