You may not know it to look at me, but I can be vile, evil and down right nasty.
What causes me to turn into this terrible person? This the list is exhausting. You see I have IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) and food sensitivities. So many foods trigger my digestive system to spasm and cause me bloating, pain and mood swings.
With a small attack I am yelling at the kids, irrational and sad. This happens weekly.
A major attack only happens every couple of months. During this time you will see me crippled over the toilet, crying, wishing the pain to stop, wanting to push away the invisible hands that have my intestines in their vice like grip, hating myself for being over indulgent. If only I'd said no to that bacon, chocolate, white bread, lolly, etc.
Eating clean for me is more about health than weight loss. I want our kids to remember the healthy me and not the vile creature I become.
