Hi everyone,
I was diagnosed with IBS last week and have just started the low-FODMAP diet. I was wondering if anyone had any advice as I get started on changing my lifestyle. I have found that I am much more sensitive now to even little mistakes when it comes to eating something that is high-FODMAP. Did that happen to you all as well after you started following the diet? Also, when I mess up and eat something high-FODMAP I feel like my reaction is much more immediate and often times more severe than it was when I was eating high-FODMAP foods consistently. Maybe my body just isn't used to me taking care of it yet haha.
Any advice would be appreciated,
Thank you!

Yep I've found the same thing. I am only in my second week but my body feels like I am detoxing. Headaches and fatigue. I had one (slightly larger than allowed) beer yesterday afternoon and reacted. I am not sure what my body is reacting to losing though as I thought I was eating pretty healthily to start with. Sorry that's not really advice
