My FODMAP Story | IBS Friendly Recipes

Struggling with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) and other tummy related issues? Did you know that the FODMAP diet has shown to help 76% of people with IBS according to Harvard Medical School and over 50% of patients in a clinical trial by University Michigan Medicine? It was a life changing experience for me and I believe it can be the same experience for you.

Welcome to Fit Fab FODMAP, a community of healthy living and IBS friendly recipes. This website is full of tips and tricks for living on the FODMAP diet. We have My Low FODMAP for beginners book, over 150 FODMAP & IBS friendly recipes, FODMAP Video Recipes, FODMAP travel guides, FODMAP interviews, FODMAP products and so much more! I hope that my website can become your #1 stop for all things FODMAP related.

I know how you feel… I hate being that person at a restaurant who has 1,000 questions and substitutions for the waiter just for the hopes of not feeling terrible the next morning. It has gotten so tough that I have been known to call the restaurant beforehand to make sure they can work with a gluten free, garlic free, dairy free, pain in the butt…. It sounds like a headache having to be so strict with what I eat but at the end of the day feeling SO MUCH better is SO WORTH it! This is also why cooking at home is so important because I have much more control of what is in my food. #MyFODMAPstory was what motivated me to create this website with the goal to help you with your FODMAP journey.

Hi, I’ve just made the peanut butter energy balls and they are so delicious! When I store them in a container do I need to keep them in the fridge?

I wanted you to know how much I LOVE your Chicken-Piccata recipe. I have made it at least six times now and every single time it has come out absolutely perfect – it is, by far, one of my favourite meals. Since being diagnosed with IBS I have had to re-invent my pantry and recipe selections, and finding the right Chicken Piccata recipe has been a challenge… until yours. Thank you again!

That makes me SO happy to hear!!! It’s my husbands all time favorite recipe and he can even make it for me (or at least he did once!). 😉 I’m so glad you’ve been able to find recipes that work for you and not feeling deprived. That’s what it’s all about, right?!?!

Is it possible to provide metric measurements, please. In the UK we use grams/ounces and not cup measurements.
Thanks

Hi! I am wanting to try your coconut pumpkin muffins tomorrow for a tea and music gathering. I see in the picture that there is coconut oil. It is not mentioned in the ingredients, nor is any other oil. Does the recipe include coconut oil? If so, how much? Thanks so much!

I just bought your book today for my mom. I read it before giving it to her. It is very well and simply written. It helps me to understand her issues. Thank you.

Hi There,
I just bought the Low Fodmap diet for beginners book and had a question about coffee. It says black coffee under allowed beverages, can I add almond milk to that since that is also allowed?

HI! Yes, sorry for the delay, I did not see your comment until now. Almond milk up to 1 cup is safe so feel free!

I’m making the breakfast quinoa and I’m curious what to do with the toasted coconut…do I add it back in to the quinoa when it’s done cooking or use it as a topping or is the step related to toasting the coconut simply a way to infuse the quinoa with the essence of coconut? Thank you!

I’m surprised to see recipes for acorn squash on your site. Has this been tested for Fodmaps?

I am just starting the diet from your book and I am wondering what is included in the corn tortilla deli wraps. If it is in the book, I am having trouble finding it. Thanks

Brand new and full of questions. How can I find out if something is OK to eat with this program? Example Instant Mashed Potatoes.

Is the Fodmap diet completely gluten free? I’m not sensitive to gluten. Thank you.

Just made peanut butter energy balls. Did you really mean to use raw steel cut oats – small, hard and considered challenging to digest raw? Other recipes seem to use quick cook steel cut oats or rolled oats.
