He has an udderly wicked sense of humour!<br /><br />Seriously though - you're right - adapt, improvise, overcome - remember? Find the right foods for you, and use the list as a guide.<br /><br />When I was recovering from my op, the physio gave me a sheet which gave me tasks that I could and couldn't do as the weeks progressed. Each task was a 'domestic chore!' So I could start by doing a little light dusting in week one, followed by gentle ironing in week 3, followed by hoovering in week 5. It really made me hoot with laughter as I don't do any of that now, and certainly didn't intend to take it up whilst recovering from my op! Instead, I adapted it for playing cricket, going for walks and messing about with the kids...and it worked for me.shentshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00320300863521778944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2044339197163784788.post-40211752944872884562010-09-28T23:40:08.435+01:002010-09-28T23:40:08.435+01:00Yes, yes, but I *can't* go back to eating whit...Yes, yes, but I *can't* go back to eating white bread, meat and dairy - so my gut will have to learn to cope and fast. <br />I'm definitely not eating rubbish food like Coco Pops (sorry Kelloggs but it IS rubbish)...<br /><br />From listening to people who have colostomy's - (rather than medical people) I'm hearing that those who pissed around eating low fibre stuff from the beginning then found it difficult to change back to a normal diet...so trial and error is my way forward. <br />I came across one lady that only eats chicken, white rice and toast because 'everything else upsets me' :-(<br /><br />And Asparagus definitely makes the bag smell - even the Stoma team told me that back in May. <br /><br />As for my family and friends, they'll have to learn to love me gas or no gas...this isn't about them :-))Carolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11470170206537639792noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2044339197163784788.post-42247327965901158562010-09-28T18:48:28.377+01:002010-09-28T18:48:28.377+01:00There is some method in their apparant madness, th...There is some method in their apparant madness, though. Most of the stuff on the banned list is very high fibre that your gut may not be able to cope with for a while, or potential creates a load of gas in the gut. And with the latter, and the previous warning that some foods will make you go off like an Icelandic geysir, I think they may be thinking more about your family and friends than you. ;-) <br /><br />Asparagus: don't know about gas, but it makes your wee smell funny!<br /><br />xxCandidehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06188362435668971626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2044339197163784788.post-41073773107013692012010-09-28T17:41:30.117+01:002010-09-28T17:41:30.117+01:00Thanks Paula :-)
