I really sympathize with you after yesterday's holiday meal. Boy, I overdid it. My Mom's just too good a cook.So, needless to say, that's why I'm sitting here on the boards at 7am the next day, commiserating with other folks who obviously feel as bad as I do right now.Usually my IBS is a morning thing and typically calms down by noon, but last night after the meal it kicked in very quickly.... so I knew then I'd have a volatile morning.I've done many things the past few months that have been helping me gain some peace and management with this condition: more sleep, a regular eating routine, eliminating a couple of trigger foods, reducing sugar and having smaller meals.I'm still getting the attacks, but a little less often and with the extra sleep, they don't last as long and I'm not getting as distressed when they do happen.I thought I did well at dinner yesterday, only taking a small portion of each dish... but there were so many dishes and courses, by the time we got to the dessert...!!! ugh.I always ask myself, during an attack that I know is my own fault for overindulging, "was it worth it".Normally not. Yesterday... yes.Happy Easter.
