musclesglasses5 Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 Hi guys -- As part of the Whole30 AIP for IBD/ulcerative colitis, I removed the following from my diet: Sugar, dairy, grains, coffee, alcohol, white potato, legumes, nuts, and nightshades (vegetable and spice kind). Basically, it was a lot of meat, vegetables, fruit, and sweet potato. It went so well that I'm not stopping the dietary portion of the Whole30. I am crushing Day 32. Here are my NSVs: Less: Less time spent in the bathroom Less heal time on injuries and infections Less bloating Less chest pain, less ankle pain Less stress Less reflux symptoms Less graphic GI symptoms Less abdominal/stomach pain Less need for Rx meds Better/More: Better quality of BMs Better breathing More strength in the gym (I did 66 deadlifts yesterday (4x225, 245, 255, 275), and then 20-15-10-5 185lb deadlifts and 20lb wall balls) More leanness More energy More efficiency and mental focus Besides all of these benefits, I lost somewhere in the vicinity of 8-10lb this month. I am feeling so thankful this Thanksgiving holiday that changing my diet made this much of a difference in my quality of life! If anyone wants to learn more about my experience using the Whole30 AIP to improve my IBD/UC symptoms, please feel free to message me. Thanks for your support!
