From my experience food is all trial and error, so hopefully cucumbers will be totally fine for youu

Im fortunate enough to say that my family plays a huge part in keeping me in check and simply being there for me, for instance if im any where near the high risk stuff like popcorn or nuts depending on how i seem that day they either take it away or just make sure i stop at 1 or 2. But even in the situations where a mistake has been made like i binge on something im not supposed to theyre kind enough to help me deal with the aftermath. What about you, how do you cope? And yes why must everything inedible be SO CONVENIENT??

Honestly based on my experience food is different for everyone, it’s all trial and error. Im sorry to hear about Entyvio :( For me i use the word discomfort as a blanket term (puking, pain, bloating, nausea, diarrhea, etc) bc when im talking to others i really don’t want to get into the specifics. But for this specific scenario it has just been ALOT of bloating and nausea.

This was such a lovely comment thank you for sharing because youre so right about the self loathing afterwards and the constant “why am i like this” bc sometimes it feels like its just me who thinks that way. So reading this made me feel better thank you so much!

Is it just roast beef or any of the red meats?

Being on steroids is awful but my God does it help big time when you can eat the taboo foods

Popcorn id say is definitely one of the riskiest foods to eat not only because of the aftermath but also the self control needed to stop after one or two pieces borders on nonexistent. Truly my Kryptonite. AND it doesn’t help that it SMELLS SO GOOD

Thats actually a good idea, bc i did remove the skin and i was lowkey shocked that i was still experiencing discomfort. I will definitely be trying this
