And The Challenge Continues

I haven't written much lately because I am still struggling. I was getting very overwhelmed trying to keep the different facets of my life straight and I went to focusing on WW only lately. Well, I have been feeling like crud. I saw my doctor today because I have been having some digestive issues for a good six months or more. She diagnosed me with IBS. She suggested a diet (FODMAP) that helps manage the symptoms which can make life tricky. I printed the list and I am surprised at many things on this avoid list. Apples are on the avoid list due to their sugar content. I eat apples a lot so this is going to be a big change. It eliminates most dairy too. I need to learn to better manage my stress as well. Stress can cause IBS symptoms to worsen. I've noticed this link in my own body. The challenge continues for me to find the best eating plan for my life. I want to feel better and get healthier.
