I have been trying to stay away from high carb foods, especially when feeling "down", but it is so easy to give in to the impulse. The 2nd to the last time I 'indulged", I got a very sour stomach. This last time (today), I knew I'd have a sour stomach, but I didn't expect the acid reflux. The only thing I ate that I didn't have on LC was the bread. I had stomach problems a lot prior to low carbing, I even had my upper GI scoped to check. I was told it looked good and maybe my stomach "just produced too much acid" and was placed on high dose prilosec. So I guess I need to stick to "no wheat" rule when falling off the wagon. I had went through 2 years of waking up at night with my stomach hurting bad and the acid reflux brings back no good memories for me either. It is the one thing about LCing that I didn't take time to really appreciate. No midnight stomach aches and no sudden/random "upchucking". Bread is "owies" for my tummy.
