Anyone else have a Redundant / Tortuous Colon?

Hi Sally, I know this is alot to ask, but would you mind sharing with me what you typically eat in a day now on the low fiber. I feel like your story sounds just like mine. The doctor told me to follow a very high fiber diet for my tortuous colon along with magnesium, miralax and motegrity and I still couldn't go to the bathroom. It wasn't until I saw your post that everything clicked. Thank you for sharing, you are helping so many people 🙏

Sure. For breakfast, I usually have a small bowl of
Cracklin’ Bran cereal (my current fav! Ok as it’s oat bran), cup of coffee and white grape juice. Lunch smoothie with fruit, milk, yogurt, protein powder. Crackers and cream cheese dip. Dinner usually chicken or seafood grilled. Potatoes. Grilled veggies. Or pasta with grilled veggies or marinara sauce. Pizza with cheese. Snacks ok but no popcorn. Ground chicken or turkey ok. Having nachos tonight. Just no tomato or lettuce. I know it sounds restrictive but not near as bad as FODMAP. And she did say after a few weeks I could start adding in a few of something here and there. Wouldn’t destroy me for days. But please remember, this is working for ME. I don’t want anyone to get messed up because of it. I was desperate and willing to try anything. I also had awful diarrhea initially because I was doing it with the meds. It takes some experimenting. Feel free to send me messages with any questions. Hope it helps anyone!
