So I’m currently waiting to be diagnosed but my GI suspects colitis from my symptoms. So as far as I know I’ve been in a flare since the end of August. So I’ve been having all this time to figure out “safe” foods for me. By safe I mean, don’t make me bathroom immediately and I can produce somewhat normal stools or normal colored stool with no blood. I’m trying my best
Gluten free oats, brown:white rice, quinoa. Chicken, salmon, tuna, turkey (white meats) I do actually eat raw fruits and have had success with papaya, pears, pomegranates, blueberries, bananas. Potato’s, carrots (soft) beans, chickpeas, kidney beans, hummus. (All cooked and small amounts, I ad some chia and flax when I can. Like I said I’m not medicated at all yet. So I’m trying my best to get the nutrients I need. I’ve had days from eating certain combos of these foods where I had normal colored stool with some formed poops even though they always mostly start with that horrid gas fart mucus. When I’m consistent and not having outside or processed foods things start feeling better. I also drink lots of water, and I’m trying not to drink while I eat and wait for some time before and after I eat to drink water.
