OH great to hear you enjoyed them, Donna!

You could try making your own lactose free options by adding lactase enzyme supplement to regular cottage cheese. Or remove the cottage cheese altogether and try to mix the pumpkin with ground chicken.

One option Lydia is to buy my low FODMAP guide for athletes–it’s $10 and is a download to your computer–http://www.katescarlata.com/shop/tips-for-the-the-fodmap-sensitive-athlete In this handout I provide tips for carb fueling on the low FODMAP diet. I do encourage a well balanced plate to help provide good satiety and energy (low FODMAP carbs w/ fiber, protein, veggies and fruit, plus healthy fats via suitable nuts/seeds and oils at each meal. …I often up rice and white potatoes for my clients that need a bit more calories too.

I am a highly active individual and I’ve recently been put on the fodmap diet by an RD. She admitted she does not have much experience in this realm, but I agreed to give it a shot. I am starting to feel better, however I am finding it difficult to eat enough to sustain the amount I exercise (the portion sizes are so small, for instance I could probably eat two portions of the above for a meal. Is that bad?? How can I still follow a low fodmap diet and get enough calories? Any advice is appreciated!
