[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 671531, member: 18958"] This thread is so interesting. I am learning so much I did not know and am feeling so less alone with my dietary quirkiness. Sad and Frustrated, you expressed the bane of my dietary life, knowing what is good for you but wanting with your whole heart that very same thing. And choosing with open eyes to go for it, whatever the cost. i Reading it in black and white gives me the sense that knowing exactly what it is--this battle--gives me a chance of actually taking charge and deciding to do what is good for me. A chance, not a certainty--that I will do i. This is so touching...the very thing that was allowing you to live fully and healthily you feared was hurting even killing you. We are so confused sometimes. I never heard of FODMAP. The MAP part. I googled it and will investigate. I even crave Splenda. They say it is worse. I cannot accept living without it. But this morning in my coffee I forgot to put it, and for a second I entertained the idea that I could withdraw it, and quickly put in my two bags. It frightened me to lose my Splenda. I want to close with one thing: When I was living in Latin America I was very, very active. I typically ate in restaurants. So this is the interesting part: I had complete control of my cravings. I could eat some bread. I could finish with a little bit of ice cream. And stop. Not crave more. (The beauty of many restaurants in Brasil is that you pay by the kilo, or portion of it. A much better concept.) I am wondering now the why of it. How would physical activity act to limit and govern cravings? The other piece of it is that for me, while I desire meat and vegetables, I do not lose control with anything other than complex carbohydrates. M thinks I am very carnivorous. Yet my love, my yearning is for breads, pastries, pies, cookies, cakes. Except I cannot make cookies because I eat every single one. I think we are getting somewhere, Ladies. Thank you very much. COPA PS I adore pizza. But I can stop. Go figure. [/QUOTE]
