Workouts, Weekend Things, Low FODMAP Diet

Sharing is caring!

Well guys, we all made it through another weekend.  Wait, what?  Who says that?  I know, but really sometimes this is how I feel when I have a lot going on over a weekend!  So here we are, with a “fresh” start and a new week.

By “fresh” I’m definitely not referring to the state of my unwashed hair, but rather to the knowledge that it’s Monday and our brains have been conditioned to know it’s time to get our s— together.

But first, want to make sure you didn’t miss the recipe for Banana Peach Muffins that I snuck in over the weekend.  I have a few extra recipes and didn’t want to wait to post – too good!

grain free and paleo banana peach muffins

I plan to post 3 recipes this week as well and then go back to my typical 2.  But now, I’ll take a look at last week’s workouts.

Not going to lie – it’s been a challenge to be consistent with a fitness routine, especially my 3 day/week yoga goal.  I’m thinking I need to actually be setting alerts to get me to do yoga – I know I have the 30 minutes in my schedule and want to be more deliberate.

Workouts 5/30-6/5

Monday – 30 minutes Yoga Total Body Detox – Lesley Fightmaster

Tuesday – 4 mile run, easy pace (used HR monitor to keep it “easy”)

Wednesday – 4 mile run, last 2 moderate pace (tracked by HR)

Thursday – 30 minute morning flow for balance 

Friday – 4 mile run, not tracked (easy effort)

Sat – Rest (walked around the city a lot though!)

Sun – 4 mile run (not tracked) and 30 minute yoga total body workout

So, while I did manage to get in what I wanted to, it felt sort of disorganized and rushed.  I hope to set times for myself for the upcoming week so I feel more sane.  About the HR training, I’ve been tracking that way twice per week and I’ll talk more about it in an upcoming post.

Weekend

I started out my weekend by impulsively baking blueberry muffins.  Why do I do this to myself?  There were at least 5 other things that I NEEDED to get done and yet, blueberry muffins it was.  They were a hit, so in the end all was well.  I need to stop using baking to procrastinate though!

image

Later on Saturday we went into the city to hang with my friend Jen and her fiancé.  We’ve been friends since we were 2 and I’m WAY excited that she’s getting married next December – in LA – which means a trip to look forward to as well.

image

We walked on the High Line and then around Chelsea Piers, and, the kids got fancy ice pops of course

image

They were fancy in flavor, not appearance – these were blueberry peach but they also had plus apricot chai and strawberry rhubarb.

imageDrew chose a cookie ice cream sandwich instead.  I was a mean-ish mommy and made Adam eat most of the cookie part but Drew barely noticed.

Back to Low FODMAP!

So, on Tuesday of this past week, I wound up with a stomachache/IBS symptoms reminiscent of way back in the day (not quite as bad, but a hint.) This is something I just don’t get anymore unless I either 1.) eat something with gluten or 2.) fall way off the low FODMAP train.

I immediately realized I’d been overloading my system with high FODMAP foods like onions and garlic, asparagus, undercooked broccoli (ran low on time for roasting!) and even sorbitol, which I noticed was in my bulletproof coffee creamer (!!) I know that I just can’t tolerate anything ending in “ol” or “al” with it comes to sweeteners.

I was also eating peaches since I’d made muffins with them and they were just SO good, that I decided eating an entire peach would be fine.  All of this added up over the course of several days is what led to the problem Tuesday, I believe.

It took me a couple of days to feel fully normal again and I’ve been eating very low FODMAP since then.  In the past, I would only be very strictly low FODMAP leading up to a long run or while training hard, but honestly, I want to feel well ALL the time – not just when I’m running a lot.  I definitely feel my best eating Paleo + Low FODMAP and while this can seem super restrictive, MOST of the time, it seems to be worth it.

Like I’ve said in the past, low FODMAP eating is not an exact science for me, and it can be a good amount of trial and error.  I’d like to go into more detail in a future post on this since I think many people likely have the same sensitivities that I do.  I’d be happy to answer any questions, so feel free to contact me!  I’d also like to go back to creating more low FODMAP recipes, since this is what I’m eating anyway!

    I felt like last week seemed busy because it was a shorter week- like trying to cram 5 days worth of stuff into 4! I also feel like I am sometimes just going through the motions if I force myself to do certain workouts and its usually better when I go into the week with a plan. As for the eating, when I eat alot of sugar or dairy over time I really start to notice it. A few days is usually ok, but if I go on vacation and eat too much of that stuffI end up with stomach problems. Sorry to hear you were dealing with all that but at least you know what caused it!

      I know, it’s usually not a one time thing but when I start veering off for a while that I have a problem. It seems like every week lately I’m rushing to get everything done and not catching up, sort of getting used to it though!

    Thank you so much again for sharing the muffin recipe over the week-end. It was a big hit at our place! The mix between the sweet bananas and the fresh peaches was amazing and I’ll admit it’s a combo I would have been reticent to try otherwise. But, mium, it reallly worked! Although my husband’s favorite recipe is your Banana-Blueberry muffins made with coconut flour and honey, he really enjoyed this one too (he ate 4 yesterday, it’s a success!). The week-end was a relaxing one with multiple crazy busy ones coming in the next few weeks, it was time to eat muffins, take a yoga class and recharge our batteries 😉

    I had an episode Saturday into Sunday that was like I had a year ago and haven’t suffered with since. Like you, I have let my feeling good let me test some murky waters. Always probably which will lead to know good for me. Friday night I had sautéed cabbage and asparagus that was so tasty served with diver scallops. It was wayyyyyy more of either FODMAP veggie I should be eaten let alone TOGETHER!!! And Saturday night the restaurant served roasted broccoli which was delicious but much firmer then my stomach can tolerate. Well, I learned my lesson again for the hundredth time. My husband bought watermelon and I will stick to my berries thank you. This is a life diet for me if I want to feel my best. I don’t feel sorry for myself because I love the food I eat. It can get monotonous, but if I am going to suffer the way I did then bring on the low FODMAP/paleo diet!!! You are such a great source for me and thank you so much for sharing!!! Btw, my husband loved, loved, loved your ranch dressing and two of your other dinners we prepared.

    I think the combo of Paleo and Low FODMAP has been key for me. FODMAPS are under (or is it over?) rated when it comes to digestive issues I think. I still eat one small apple a day, which I know is a big no-no, but I feel good because I avoid the other high offenders like onion and garlic. I just can’t give up cashew butter either! LOVE the High Line! I miss the city!

    • Michele says

      June 8, 2016 at 6:21 am

      I’ve noticed that even my kids need the skin of their apples removed or they have some issues. It’s definitely a balance/amounts thing and not an exact science, but something that’s worth experimenting with! And yes, I think more people are finding out about it now but hope it becomes more mainstream because it’s been life changing.

    The FODMAP thing can be really key to how we feel throughout the day and how our bodies react, and it’s just tough that people find it difficult and there isn’t a whole lot of guidance. I have two friends with severe IBS, one a pretty active marathoner, who found amazing improvement in their health by doing low FODMAP, but they are having to figure it out on their own since doctors just give them lists of foods and send them on their way. I try to help with creative baked goods 🙂

      Yup that’s me too. I haven’t been to a doc regarding IBS for years, but, the advice given was always terrible (high fiber low fat) and I thought I’d be sick for life! I hope everyone with IBS tries low FODMAP!

    I would absolutely love to hear more about your thoughts on the low fodmap diet, including new recipes suited for this lifestyle. I know that it has been key for me, even though it pains me to stop eating some of those foods (like apples!). One thing that I would like you to talk about is the different categories of fodmaps. I know that fructose and lactose are like natural disasters for my system, but some fructans are okay. I would love for you to delve more into this topic!

      I really feel the same way! And regarding the categories – this is something I’m learning about more for myself too. I never seem to have a problem with honey, for example, but then again I might not be eating enough to notice! I find it tricky to figure out exactly what my worst offenders are.

      The beach is definitely the best! And low FODMAP is great to try if you’re noticing IBS symptoms. It can just be a few weeks to get a handle on what you react to.

    Boo to stomach issues. I’ve had a finicky stomach for pretty much as long as I can remember, so I definitely have to keep close tabs on what I eat to keep it from going crazy. Onions and garlic are big no-nos for me, but there are times where what my stomach tolerates seems to be super random, with stress and rest being huge triggers. Hope you’re feeling better! And happy Monday 😀

    Asparagus, garlic, onions, undercooked broccoli – all bad for me too! Peaches haven’t been a problem.

    Funny b/c I never thought about heart-rate training in the past. now I am running very consistently and very slowly to keep my heart-rate down with the goal of eventually becoming faster. Kind of maffetone-like. We’ll see if it works 🙂

      You’re lucky that peaches are good! I can have cooked peaches or apples but fresh bothers me. Many fruits bother me sadly! I like heart rate training, maybe because you see exactly how hard you’re working and you can’t BS it, lol!

    my weekend was crazy. went out a bunch stayed out to late (2 AM…aren’t i super young). woke up feeling groggy (aren’t i super old). went to the zoo. had family time. had cleaning, laundry, etc to do sunday. one of those weekends that are fun but not at all relaxing or recharging. oh well what can you do ! go back to work for a break i guess 🙂 i have celiac disease so i avoid gluten like the plague. i pretty much eat only food i make (or buy GF) save for a few meals out here and there. i only feel bad if i’ve eaten something cross contaminated which has happened here and there and leaves me sick and in lots of stomach pain for ~ 2 days. my belly bloats up HUGE and i feel like being in fetal position all day. i find that when i overeat on certain things it can leave me bloated as well but i swear those things change like the wind ! too much dairy like ice cream and i will feel bad (but still eat it of course!). luckily i dont think i have a problem with onions/garlic but lately coffee has been bothering me. have you ever had any issues with coffee ?

      Haha I can’t do 2am, no way! I’ve never had issues with coffee in and of itself but definitely with things I put in it, like that creamer I messed up with. Also if I put regular milk or any sweetener in my coffee it doesn’t sit well. I still eat onions/garlic when I go out since they make the food taste a million times better.

Any advice would be much appreciated! Thanks!

      It definitely is restrictive but worth trying. A caveat is that it’s not always simple or straightforward and there are foods that are high in different categories that make it confusing. BUT worth trying to see if it makes a difference at all! My WIAW post today shows a day of low FODMAP eating.

    I feel you on the stomach upsets! I have to be really careful not to cross the line into loading my stomach with too many flavours as the line is seriously fine. Sometimes I’ll get excited that I can eat a new food that I couldn’t previously (as my food intolerances are getting better now that I’m five years post coeliac diagnosis!) and go a little bit overboard and feel the effects!

    I’m with you on the sweeteners too! Even stevia does not sit well with my fussy stomach!

      June 8, 2016 at 6:37 am

      I just can’t do sweeteners! Maple syrup and coconut sugar in baked goods are okay though, because I don’t go overboard. I haven’t used a lot of stevia so can’t say if it bothers me or not, wouldn’t surprise me if it did.

    So, I don’t think it’s a bad thing that you bake to procrastinate, because that seems like a productive past time. People always need food. Do your kids and husband eat all of the baked goods? I really want to hear about the low FOD Map journey and how that helps digestive problems. Would you be comfortable sharing your specific digestive problems, because i have a few problems too?

    I just discovered your blog and I love it! I’m doing my first Whole30 and through it learned about FODMAP. Finally I have an answer to my GI woes! I never understood why garlic would cause gas, bloating, and diarrhea. And cauliflower and sometimes broccoli cause horrible cramps. I couldn’t believe that such healthy foods could be bad for my body. I bet there are even more high FODMAP foods that upset my stomach that I’ve been blaming on other issues, like high fat foods, and Whole30 is really helping me to identify these issues. Anyway, I appreciated reading your story! I’m having fun going through your low FODMAP recipes.

      Hi, glad you found me! There are so many foods that are considered healthy that I ate for so long but that I have to be really careful with now. For fruit, I stick to berries and bananas, although if I cook apples they are a lot friendlier. Generally I’ve noticed the more I cook broccoli the better that is too, so I wind up roasting it until it’s pretty brown. I have a mix of recipes on here but many can be adapted to low FODMAP pretty easily!
