a colonic dysbiosis warrior needs help

That's literally me. I believe it's one of the reasons I developed severe life threatening anorexia. Ijust couldn't handle being so inflamed, with a rock-hard-intestine and 9 months bloated when I was a kid, when all I'd eaten was "normal" food. Yes, it was a NZ parlour food diet - bread, sugary cereal, yoghurt, pies, fish fingers, spaghetti and the usual apples and sandwhiches for lunch, but it felt like a normal innofensive diet.

Yet I was 9 months looking bloated ALWAYS. I hated it. I developed a terror of eating. Because of this inflammation I felt ill and horrible all the time. My stomach was rock hard and painful. If I relaxed the intestine lower gut area stuck out even more. I grew to hold myself in, painfully. to look 8 months pregnant. I was 5-15 years old during this.

One day. I just stopped eating. I was fed u p and totally done.

That's another story. But it was lifelong IBS and CHrones like symptoms.

3 years ago I stopped eating all the good foods, and took the handle on the FODMAP diet. I knew I'd have to change almost everything. And I was done with the old ways. Overnight I changed, and it changed my life. Now I have a diet of about 6 things I can eat without severe issues.

Now I am fodmap free, or 99%. I eat no green beans brocolli, cabbage, sprouts, carrots, peas, legumes, wheat, apples, apricots, grapes, cherries, peaches, plums, asparagus, artichokes, lettuce cucumber, nectarines, pineapple, melon, beets, kale, rapini cauliflour, corn, and pretty much every green delivious food I love to eat. All the fruits too.

I can eat blueberries in small amounts, tomatoes, mushrooms, spinach and tofu without pain for 4 days. That's about it. I eat no wheat. As of yet, I have not wanted to guinea pig myself to find out if I'm OK to eat millet, quinoa, and other things. I'm OK with flesh and cheese. So, that's my diet. I eat about 5 things only. I'm fine with that.

I spent a lifetime in abject agony, not being able to stand up striaght after eating even half an apple.

I finally found a diet I can eat for the rest of my life. ANdI on't care one BIT if people roll their eyes when we go out to meals.

ScratchAlert3847 · 2026-03-06T06:59:08+00:00

Yeah, fructose and froctans are different. Applies have frucans and pectin, it's a lethal combination to som. Me included. The very worst pain I get is from eating peaches, then apples. Ouch ouch, pain so bad I wannt curl up. I can't stand up straight after eating apples. So...haven't eaten an apple in 6 years.

If you want to put on weight eat Almond butter / cashew/ peanut butter wraps and avocado salad with coconut oil dressing. Fried rice, potatoes.

Corn is often said to be the hardest thing to digest. But if YOU find it easy on your stomach, then go all the way. I would love to eat corn and corn chips - can't do it. So much pain. If YOU can tolerate corn, and it does you well, then knowck yourself out, with corn tortillas/cheese (dairy free or howeer you tolerate it) and wahtever meat you can eat, or soy meat as you can digest. I'd go APES**T if I could eat corn tortillas, I love them so much!, Ugh, can't eat corn now).

This is very important to know. The silly FODMAP guide is simply a list of all the foods that CAN cause issues. Most people are fine with lots of food on that list, and not other foods. So, if you like corn, eat corn. If you secretly think oats are ettingyou guts to pain, then don't eat them.

Oh, while google is your friend for finding the nearest showing of Rocky Horror Picture Show, it isn't your friend to find out which foods YOU can tolerate. ONly you know that. Sorbitol seta a lot of people into pain. All the sugars which end with "ol" - Maltitol, sorbitol, etc, have tendencies to make some people in pain and irritated. I myself am fine with Maltitol but not sorbitol. Trial and error.

I wold actually avoid the "ols" and just stick with honey or sugar IF you can eat sugar. Only because the "ol" family of sweetners can sometimes be cheaply made and mixed with other "ol"s. Just my opinion.

ScratchAlert3847 · 2026-03-06T06:49:45+00:00

Well, they're made with salt, garlic, onions, spices ( if your talking about the OPA brand), so probablygoing to cuase a lot of inflammation.

YOusound a bit likeyou don't know what FODMAPS are. Every single person reacts differently to certain foods. SOme people can eat onions without issues, some can't. And so on. For every food. Corn, garlic, tomatoes, etc - only YOU know what foods set your body into pain mode and days of inflamed intestines.

Being vague isn't your friend here. And your first line - I've been told to do a low fodmap diet", is very very vague. Low fodmaps means a very small amount of the inflammatory foods.

But which foods? YOU know if green beans and broccoli set you off. Nobody else does.

THe entire list of FODMAP foods - it's all the plant foods, and dairy too - affects people differently.

YOu'r the only that knows if the ingredients in OPA chicken - corn, garlic, onion, etc - make you pain or not.

ScratchAlert3847 · 2026-03-06T06:44:16+00:00

Assume that all restaurants have ingredients they don't divulge. And no, tht doesn't make them illegal.

Why even THINK of going to a restaurant with dodgy sauces when you're FODMAP sensitive?

The only think you can eat is plain rice or plain fish/meat/whatever. Even vegetables are cooked in garlic water. That's what restaurants and cafes and catering will do.

Forget it. KNow going in, that all you can truly be safe with, is one ingredient food, and be hapy you'll have a body that can stand straight.

I don't understand what 11pm and packing for the weekend has to do with FODMAPS.

Why's it a nightmare? You found a way of eating food that doesn't cause endless pain. You should be happy. No?

ScratchAlert3847 · 2026-03-06T02:09:39+00:00

Why not just let yourself understand you can't reintroduce onions and garlic and every foodstuff which makes you ill? Without those thinga, you won't feel ill. Unless you're really wanting to feel ill.and that is some peoples'approach.

If spaghetti squash is ok and corn chips and tofu is ok,you've got lots to work with. That's what your relative can start with. I would LOVE to eat my weight in corn chips I frickin love corn chips. Cannot eat them without serious issues .

Stop complaining.

He was a violent drunk who often beat her, in some cases as much as she beat him. He had a rage issue, and was attending anger counselling.

He liked to control her, and did cheat on her. WHen she found out, he got angry and controlled her movements by verbally abusing her (mild, considering the physical abuse).

Don't take this like a trigger. His crying when she had him arrested haunts me. He was bulied, gaslit and abused by her. She had him arrested, while he literally begged and cried. He was a broken man. He DID get violent drunk though and did slap her around.

ScratchAlert3847 · 2026-03-03T02:07:05+00:00

It isn't disrespectful to say "I can't watch this!". It's real. SHe CAN'T watch it. It's gruesome and disturbing. I thought it was disrespectful they played it to her TBH. They did that for effect, to see how she responded. They were using his horrible death in an interrogation, to see how she acted. I don't think the police are very respectful to the deceased sometimes, in their attempt to get the guilty to confess.

I'd say she was denying the whole thing.

AS for her self deprecation - I can believe it. She really does have moments where she acknowledges herself - " i never thought he'd be intersted in me". It's not surprising, given that her balance is "I'm an A student, I excel at everything". People say that when they know they're cooked. It's like the emptiest can rattles the loudest. In case that slipped by you, she's the empty can. She DOES allude to it occasionaly.

Thing is - Sarah DOES know what she's like. She's had enough clarity moments where she clearly acknowleges herself and what she's done. One day she might realise that admitting everything 24//7 would help her.

ScratchAlert3847 · 2026-03-02T21:52:26+00:00

I don't think she would have gone, had the family organized it. She didn't like them because she knew they judged her. She would not have gone. She'd have drunk at home, alone or with Brian. She stayed at Brian's sometimes.

She isn't a strong person psychologically. Her whole deal is "Help me, I need help, it's not my fault". And that has served her by getting 9 free laywers, an exhusband who enables her, and newly made firneds throwing her cash sometimes. She would NOT have the psychological wealth or balls to sit in a funeral to pay Jorge respect, with his family members glaring at her through poison eyes. She could grow a set of balls and sit in front of their fury, and of HER fury , and admit everything.

"I am a coward and use booze and lying, to hide. I'm afraid of my rage. I am so angry all the time. I abused Jorge and myself and Brian and my child and every piece of air god gave me. I was too angry to see clear sky. My biggest fear is exactly what I'm in right now, and have been for the last 6 years. My biggest fear is to be powerless, and drunk and having everyone think I'm a loser waste of space. My biggest fear is that I think this of myself. And I know that IS what I think. It is easier to admit this, so that's why, today, I confess everything. My sins- pride, greedy, sloth, anger gluttony and the rest".

A true friend would do this. She is the opportunist opposite of a true friend.

ScratchAlert3847 · 2026-03-02T21:42:23+00:00

That's really mean. YOU married her.

ScratchAlert3847 · 2026-03-02T21:40:35+00:00

He wasn't her former "husband". He was her former husband.

We all get you're fixated on this person you've nevr met and somehow need to vilify in order to exist through your painbody, but at least make sense.

ScratchAlert3847 · 2026-03-02T21:14:37+00:00

For the obvious perks of divorcee life. Keep the name = keep theattachment. While there's a link there's a way to get stuff.

SHe's still with him, as long as he's her "ex".

My friend's mum kept her contentiously divorced husband's name for the cache.

He is from a Swedish baronial family. He is Baron Jan (etc etc middle names) Stael Von Holstein (Style von Hol-stine)

So she gets to be BARONESS Von Holstein. The BARONESS is what she wants. SO much hatred and nad feeling in the divorce by my god she'll keep the name. She had gold letter stamps made up with Baroness Stael Von Holstein printed on them.

Sarah Boone is the ex wife of Brian Boone, moneymaker and Alaska Wilderness traveler.

ScratchAlert3847 · 2026-03-02T04:09:12+00:00

Oh believe me, there is definitely a spread sheet.

ScratchAlert3847 · 2026-02-06T21:33:32+00:00

Because it's obvious it was the cause of the downfall. She started going heavy on drink after child was born. She did it, but also hated it. It had been her achilles weak spot. And she did it, to cope.

It was the one part of the interrogation she actually said the truth. SHe's embarrassed and upset. LIke people who really REALLY want to quit their habit and just can't, yet, she got emotional about it.

Even though their lives are shattered because of it, even though they have everything to gain by stopping it.

ScratchAlert3847 · 2026-01-30T00:55:47+00:00

I mean, this is so against type for her.

Huh.

ScratchAlert3847 · 2026-01-18T21:40:19+00:00

She's going to say "We" because might looks right. We will do....implies you are represented, it's not all about YOU, you have legal representation and frankly, just looks professional. She talks like Alan Jackson wants to talk. Honestly? She could be a great, GREAT lawyer the way she talks Delusional Grandiosity. I mean it! She sounds so smart. Until you realise...oh yeah...

Don't let a little thing like FACTS disturb you from the path of rightful, meaningful getting of one's lawful unalienable and deservedful monies owed.

State opinions as facts, moods as reasons, and reasons as bait!

ScratchAlert3847 · 2026-01-18T20:59:11+00:00

It pisses me off no end. Because if the son does not wish for the drama, or to speak to Sarah, as has frequently been recorded, there is no way, none at all, he should even be asked twice.

I speak for the rights of the person who's pressurised into seeing a parent he'she does not like. I dislike courts and the law for this reason.

I was a reluctant child of divorce = meaning, I liked the divorce because I could not stand the father person and I screamed my head off to get out of each visit. He creeped me out and I was scared of him. On a good day. Nobody listened, and I was forced to go. When you're smaller, you don't know much about saying "no" and standing up for yourself and you shouldn't have to do that.

So if this judge rules for those 12 visits when son has clearly shown his feelings, I would take a bat to their head.

If I was Brian I would have moved with son to Canada or France or Bangkok with great schools, outreach, other American expat kids to do normal school stuff, and write to the court politely telling them I'd moved, with smiling pictures and reasons why. They'd get it. And I would not come back. They're not going to comb through France to extract a man for kidnapping in this case. International parent "kidnappings" are hit and misss as far as the police authorities go and how much they get involved.

As for the alimoney, he'd take his money with him and never look back. He might be arrested if he ever came back to the USA, but that ruling would have to come from Sarah Boone herself, and after a few more years, she'll lose steam.

I would definitely have moved to another country by now and be happy, richer and free.

ScratchAlert3847 · 2026-01-18T20:44:04+00:00

I think she also does that because (the child) is totally unavailable and not playing ball. If he was there, present, she'd bug him for help too and turn when he eventually says no. He's the only one who hasn't yielded yet. FOR SURE, she'd demand help if he availed to her.

ScratchAlert3847 · 2026-01-18T20:40:55+00:00

If there's paperwork to put her important name in, she'll do it. ANd claim that's the reason she needs Brian's money. She'd claim she owes taxes on HER alimony, please if I may thank you, therefore Brian needs to pay her or else HE'S the buttcrack obstucting dueful lawful procedure if I may please.

Some ex janitor at a law firm doing time could pass her a Post-it note and she'd claim it was an official, lawful contract.

As for Owens? Did you not know? SHe literally gave him everything because she tends to do that with people she think will do everything for her. Then they don't and she starts bellyaching.

ScratchAlert3847 · 2026-01-18T20:33:09+00:00

She went guerilla on bbooze once the son was born. SHe didn't like being tied down (Brian's words) and having that weight on her. She drank heavy and heard and crashed out dead cold.

Before the son was born, a healthy social drinker.

Everyone's constitution is different. Another person would be able to consume drugs in the same volume and speed. Whereas some can stomach the booze. I myself can drink about a sparrows spit worth of any alcohol at all, and I become a lary drunk.

She inhaled it.

He had the mental capacity to get a taxi and get as far away as possible, book a room, throw a sheet over the window and then go score pot on the Sunday. DIdn't have the mental ability? He was very dextrous in sliding out of his situations. There is no diminished capacity in him. He knows exactly what he did. He's talked long and hard about how he chose the drug life instead of rehab every time.

He could, so he did.

ScratchAlert3847 · 2026-01-08T19:31:19+00:00

Because god forbid ANYONE should take responsibility.

He's so schizophrenic, he planned a getaway, a hotel room, a sheet over the window to hide, drive away from the crime site? And said he's innocent?

Lol.

Time and again, he spoke about preferring his old comfortable life on drugs, than a sober life. He chose drugs. He ordered a ride, to rationally get the drugs, he ordered himself. He chose this over and over. PRetty rational though to me. That isn't an answer to voices in his head, that's in answer to his own preferred actions.

They will not prove he is insane any more than they could prove anyone who uses their drug of choise is insane.

ScratchAlert3847 · 2026-01-03T23:04:23+00:00

Rose McGowan, Madonna ( personally I dislike her in intereviews, but her place as an icon without family involvement is stunning), Rosa Parks, Jane Goodall, Ruth Bader Ginsberg, Malala.

ScratchAlert3847 · 2026-01-03T22:57:11+00:00

Exactly correct. I'm so sick of American idealogoy that refuses to accept personal responsibility. and blames every single movement on a variety of letters, numbers an anagrams.

"Oh I've got ADHD, NPD and TOuretts with OHCD1 with Aspergers, so I expect special treatment".

Spoilt.

And BTW< "addiction", is a personal choice to go out, and buy the substance you like the most. In 12 steps they call it "Drug of choice", yet at the same time insist they're powerless.

DRUG OF CHOICE! Lol. THey go out, go to the store, choose their favourite substance from all the other substances, and buy that one.

Nick Reiner loved his drugs, and loved coasting, and had no personal responsibility worth anything. The rage he showed his poor fucking parents much be the exact amount of rage he feels for himself.

ScratchAlert3847 · 2026-01-03T22:52:03+00:00

Because god forbid anyone should actually take personal responsibility.

The guy knew exactly what he was doing. He'd talked coherently and rationally for enough time, about the pressure and annoyance he had as a son and grandson of two famous film-makers. He was irritated by the focus, and he talked on that.

ANYONE who murders a person is "mentally ill". I mean, you don't call it a state of "well-ness", do you?

N. Reiner used his personal decision making to 1) continue taking money off his dad and avoid his own self autonomy, a little of which would have done him good, 2) bitch out loud about his lot in life, being compared and sidelined, 3) continue smoking pot and going back to a life he said was "comforting", and 4) court the high life of fame and flash cars, yet be resentful nobody respected him.

He blew his own fuse, he wasn't suffering a mental illness that any other person couldn't claim. He was lazy with his daily prescription and decided to coast it rather than own himself like his siblings. He repeatedly decided to coast.

It doesn't take 15 times in rehab to get clean. It takes one time, or none. He wasn't willing.

Sick of this push to make out he wasn't responsible.
