kate--
i know exactly what you mean about re: veggies. i think if i ate all the veggies you eat, i would be in a very "D" situation myself. i also favor "sticking to basics" my favorite staple is rice and peas. you can never go wrong there! some veggies ive found to be quite comforting and easy on the tum are: butternut squash, zucchini, any potatoes mashed and sweet potatoes are the best! go for more veggies when you feel like it.

dont worry about how others see you or your posts. honestly the best diet ive read for a D is bananas, rice, applesauce and toast. a bit carby but like the BTC diet, i think its meant to be a stabilizer. dont give yourself attacks to look "normal". and even potatoes with a few carrots or pickles isnt normal--your body needs more to push out whats waiting inside!

do you ever get C?

i just got a new vitamin--a daily vegan one with no iron for less C!
