Yes the gas pains are very common. For me, it's mostly when I haven't eaten much and when I'm constipated. I'm on meds that make me constipated. So I take laxatives rather regularly, but I can't think of anything else that's helped. I've never tried gas-x (if that's even a product, haha) but it may be something to try. xox
maybe you could try eating the same dinner every night just like you do with bfast & lunch? it'd probably be boring, but might help to break the b/p cycle. stomach problems are common with EDs & there's a variety of things it could be, but it sounds like your in a lot of pain so you should definitely see a doc about it <3
I've had the same problem with choosing what to make/eat for dinner and being so overwhelmed that i just end up in the b/p cycle. Something that has helped me is writing down several dinner options ahead of time. Also, I cook a large pot of soup or something and divide it into containers to freeze or put in the fridge for later. Then when i'm having a hard time deciding what to eat-i have something already made or a suggestion of what to make in front of me so it's not overwheming to choose.
It sounds as though you need to see your doctor about "the pain" stuff. To me, it sounds like what I get....which is due to stomache ulcers..... it's called Acid Reflux. It can "manifest" in your body in different ways. Some get burning, some get gassy, etc. It's best to talk to your GP.
Welcome back Sarah! I've always liked your videos and have missed them since you have been gone!!! xo~a
Hey hun, the digestion problems are from the iron supplement. Its a common side effect of it, it helps when you take them with meals and not on an empty stomach
I have so missed you. Been thinkin about ya, too. Great to hear from ya again. First of all, don't let YT videos seems like a chore. We all love to hear from you, but make sure you want to make a vid... don't feel like you have to make one.
Also, how to word this... try not to let your deterrant from making videos be overwhelming parts of your ED. We all want to year from ya through the good and the bad.

purging and starving give me stomach problems, i hate that. maybe you can try prune juice or some indigestion pill :P i dunno what would work really.
i love paint by numbers :)
have the same thing for dinner every day, i hate choosing food too, i'd rather stick to one thing.

I love your videos and im so glad your back!
As for the pain. I think your body is just adjusting to the changes of new/more food after being restricted (being starved) for so long.
Im praying for you sweetie! x
