Oh my gosh, I so happy to have stumbled across your blog. I’ve had a similar problem with fruit and bread particularly. I kept doubting myself for thinking they were the cause of my weight gain, bloating etc, but always felt better when I cut them down or out entirely. I just ballon out when I eat them. So thanks for sharing, it’s been super encouraging to be reminded that each body functions differently.

Oh my gosh, I am so happy you wrote this post! I just found it because of the trackback from today’s post, and you have totally hit the nail on the head for me! I have been struggling with crazy tummy symptoms, and have been googling/bombarding my stomach doc with questions about the amount of fruit I eat on an average day, and have turned up little answers. (Let’s just say google was far more helpful than my doc in this situation.) I’m glad to see my suspicions confirmed that there can in fact be a relationship with the amount of fruit I eat per day and any tummy bloat.

Again I have to say thank you for your blog HEAB!

Its so funny how all of our bodies are so different! For example, when I started having oatmeal on a daily basis, I gained weight very easily! Now I eat an apple at breakfast and another piece of fruit or light snack half way through the morning and I feel much better! Odd!

Thanks for sharing your experiences and I loved reading your meme. I need to do mine!

PS I love your comments they’re so thoughtful

interesting post, heather.

i never thought that some people might gain weight from fruit.. it seems so topsy turvy, but it does make sense! I’m glad that you were able to find this out, but a bit sad that you are not able to always partake in nature’s candy. But you’ve found some other amazing eats to have, so it seems to me you’re gonna be a ok!

Oh, and I finished off my jar of Barney Butter.. boo-hoo!! I must buy some more soon, I am now hooked on the stuff! Thanks so much for introducing it to me!

Have a great week!
