Welcome...now what does you diet consist of? And what is the reason for such a restrictive diet?  (If you have posted this previously, I appologize for the query) :rolleyes:...i.e. what boat are you in. B)

Me too!! You know it seems impossible but it can be done! I started about 2 or 3 mtgs ago. I tested out nuts and eggs and am ok with them. Here's the positive:

1) I went from 148 pds to 138 pds

2) my energy level went sky-high. I feel like I'm 20 yrs old again.

3) I've been eating really healthy so I feel more motivated to to play w my daughter and even exercise.

4) food tastes better. I'm not kidding. Last night I boiled chicken and had a plain baked potato. And I thought this was yummy! (Hey I liked Big Macs)

5) my tummy isn't ready to burst (ie no massive alien-like bloating).

6) my neurological symptoms are gone

So yeah it's a real pain in the butt and very inconvenient, but it's a lifestyle change I'm ok with.

Stay with it! You can do it!!

I'm also gluten, dairy, soy, egg, yeast, rice, and nut free (except for cashews, those I can have). Life is hard. : (  I was tested for additional food allergies after being diagnosed with gluten and dairy intolerances, and the bloodwork came back and said I had antibodies to the other foods listed. I basically eat meat, veggie & fruits. Breakfast is the hardest meal, I usually have a coconut milk smoothie with a little fruit and some stevia, and some meat leftover from previous night's dinner (this morning was grilled chicken).

 

I've been gluten and dairy free for 2.5 yrs, but only found out about the other foods 6 months ago.  It's not easy...

      Manitol and mri

      It looks like "mannite" is another name for "mannitol": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mannitol You are correct that it can trigger IBS-like symptoms, as we recently did an article on this: I'm not sure if there is a way around this, as it is likely needed for the test. Perhaps contact your doctor to see if there might be an alternative?

      Oral drink: You will be given a solution of mannitol mixed with water to drink over a period of about 30-60 minutes this is what it says it is ,?
