Would love to try red velvet, pear and vanilla , Strawberry and dark chocolate and pumpkin pie flavours. Rocky road would be a great flavour with marshmallows.

I have ibs. Personally I avoid red meat, rich sauces\spicy food, high sugar foods, cauliflower,onions and limit full fat dairy. I eat berries, porridge/ready brek made with unsweetend almond milk, shredded wheat, nutribullet smoothies, decent amount of veggies, wholemeal bread, lots of protein from chicken,turkey but…

When I go there I don't get a yorkshire pudding or stuffing ball and i don't get too many potatoes.Also I don't put much/any of the sauces on, it cuts a few calories.

Thanks for the replies everyone- I've cut out both dairy and gluten as I believe dairy may also be affecting my skin. I made my own gluten/dairy free soup tonight and it was great, feeling very positive about this diet change. I also have noticed i haven't been quite as bloated as usual. Hopefully, I might start feeling…

Thanks, hopefully I will be able to adapt my diet like you have :) . I don't eat a lot of junk but its supriseing whats in some foods.

I will definately consider doing this, it would give me a better idea of what could be causing me problems rather than cutting things needlessly, thanks.

And also the gluten free oats i bought say they are made in a factory…

Thanks for the reply. I don't really want to lose any more weight, I just don't want to gain weight. I would like to feel healthier as my energy is low I can't really exercise much ,and the cfs interferes with my daily life so I'm hoping the elimination of dairy and gluten makes some difference.

Peppermint tea can help with bloating.
