This video Becky is so AMAZING! All of your hacks are SO TRUE and SO ACCURATE. You do an amazing job. Also for those of you that are wondering yes..she does indeed respond to comments as soon as she can. I also agree about not eating your allowed amounts of Fodmaps together in abundance. I do this with frozen strawberries and frozen blueberries but in moderation. So that I have an "on the go" fruit snack, I separate out 15-20 blueberries + 10 strawberries and put them in Ziploc baggies and take them with me to work. They can thaw on the way to work and I eat them for breakfast. Strawberries are shown to not have fodmaps in them and blueberries do have fodmaps if you eat in excess of 20 per/serving. So I dont push it and add anymore than that to the baggies. They don't need sugar as they are sweet enough on their own. I use the Monash Food App. It is $10.00 but so worth it. Xx
Like from me! Thank you so much for your last reply! I'm on a diet right now and I think it's helping me. I feel a lot better. I wish you good health. I just hope that you'll get rid of IBS one day, you're the best. Keep up the great work!
Good day, Becky. I just want to say that your videos are a lifechanger for everyone who has IBS. I've only had symptoms manifest less than a year ago, but the thought of having this condition my whole life horrifies me. I used to be a glutton, I crave all of those things that used to be my favourite food just a couple of months ago. It's difficult to keep a strict diet, and the thought that this bland, textureless food is what I'll eat for the rest of my life makes me want to cry. Which is why your videos are important. Sure, It's nothing like the life I've had, and all these new products are difficult to come by in Russia. Not to mention that Gluten free lactose free vegan all natural food sounds unbelievably gay, and I sound pretentious while ordering it. But you showed me it's not over. I can have a life full of (strange and expensive) tasty treats and food. You are a content creator and a helping hand. Thank you.
I've had IBS for just about a year now in reaction to a strong acne medication, and it's definitely been a huge struggle! It's my GCSE year, and my IBS has been such a pain as I have missed so many valuable days off school, and sitting through 2-3 hour exams is very hard and its so difficult to concentrate through the pain! Thank you so much for these videos though, defo so helpful! Hopefully one day we'll both be IBS free xxx
This was a great video Becky. Please do more videos like this. All those points made me think about what l am doing. At times it feels like a battle battle with food. Another tip is to keep a food diary and write down your symptoms. This is made easier if you try one type of food or a single vegetable, fruit etc at a time. Also a green or just ripe banana is Fodmap but a fully ripen banana is not, I will try the chives in small amounts for sure. Regarding a dietician at the start when your knowledge limited is a good idea. I went to a dietician this week and felt that really I was wasting my time because the reality is everyone different and there are no set of rules. One just has to test the foods themselves and a dietician can’t do this for you or know how a food is reacting when you eat it, 🇦🇺. 🍽🍓🥗🍌🍗🥑. 🇦🇺
I would love more videos like this, it's very helpful. All week I have been slowly eating blueberries because all fruit has been awful. So I don't know how many blueberries is in five grams so I just went for a skinned tiny wedge. Next day I skinned half and the day after I ate a whole. My energy drained for a while after a berry and a half but its better than the other reactions so I'm going to keep at the berries until one a day for four days becomes at least six berries in one sitting. Fingers crossed my insides don't just revert back to the major intolerance. Good luck to you, as well Becky
This is very informative! I use the chive hack a lot. I love union flavour and much Dutch food has union in it :c. Chive is a perfect alternative! I cannot escape union completly. I think I still eat stuff at times with union powder in it. Its always hidding into something. I can tolerate low concentration of union powder (even though most times, unions will try to kill me). I agree that a fodmap dieet should never be done alone. I did that and it took me 2 years. Yes I did it alone, but at such a slow pace! It could have gone faster if I went to a dietitian.
hi, becky! very informative! each hack is a gem - you are doing a great job, i hope you are feeling better with the diet changes. have you begun reintroducing foods? you may recall that i am not on low fodmap but have ibs, gastroparesis and celiac. foolishly i had something with soy in it was sick for about 24hrs. live and learn. learn and live. take care! ~k
Love this video and I just found that out about avocado and I have loved eating it again. Also I am so excited to make that onion infused oil :) And I definitely have trouble reintroducing things but I have tried gluten and sweet potato lately and I've been ok in small portions.
I'd just like to mention that people that suffer from IBS doesn't have the same triggers, for example, there is no way I can eat chive because it's part of onions family so it would be very painful. Same for leeks and shallot.
It’s fructans in onions which cause symptoms chives and green parts of spring onions do no have these. So don’t cause symptoms. For the FODMAP diet you follow the diet not what you *think* is a trigger otherwise it doesn’t work.
Why does the Fodmap app show onions to be low! Green, so confused. :/ Everyone says no onion on the low Fodmap. It's a no no for me :( Will definitely try your tips 😀
I like your advice to work with a dietitian. Is a nutritionist the same thing? Once I move back to D.C., I would love to work with one. I have never gone through the elimination and reintroduction stage, because I have been busy and it is hard to regulate what I eat in China. How long did the whole process take?
Hi Becky. Hope you are well. My first trigger food I found on Tuesday is raw onion or the cheese and onion sandwich filler. It's not dairy as I haven't reacted. Gosh what an awful experience when it's triggered on top of the pain in already in 😭 xx
Hi Becky, hope your well. Thankyou for the video it was very informative especially regarding portion sizes. I wonder if you could help me regarding portions ? I am on the fodmap diet advised to me by a NHS specialist dietician. In the booklet it says suitable veg up to 80g, does this mean a combined weight or individual weight? Sorry it's a long question. I'm sooo confused lol x
How many grams are 1/8 of an avocado? I effing love the taste of it, but avocado can be really huge or really small... I feel lost. Had a flare up on it yesterday... cause of the sizedifference...
One of the best low Fodmap influencers I’ve found 😊❤️💪🏻

Thank you ❤️ Hope this goes away someday. Having my IBS coming back pretty hard this month and forgot how my fodmap diet don't need to be super scary.
Thank you very much for these tips! I’ve been enjoying your videos and your honesty, I don’t feel so alone. 🙂
No problem, thanks so much for watching! x

weirdly asafoetida is an IBS trigger for me so I was really upset when I couldn't substitute onion with it

Another thing is I'm struggling to convince my GP to refer me to a dietician so I can have help with fodmap. Is this normal? Xx
would I be able to have spinach and tomato together?
Great video
I have been on this diet for 6 months and it’s so challenging to find different foods.
