I expected to not be able to eat bread, rice, and Pasta. I even thought chicken breast and certain veggies would be off the menu.

But lunchmeat?

I can eat the chicken, broccolli, even bread but one bite of lunch meat (by itself) causes an immediate golf ball in my chest.

The band is a fickle fickle thing.

I can only eat deli turkey if I get the cheaper, moister turkey directly from the deli. Never had a problem with roast beef though... maybe try that?

Deli meats have a lot of fillers in them, I'll bet if you eat the real deal (just turkey) you might have better luck.

I find that deli meats can give me issues too. Not entirely sure why but you aren't alone

I dont really eat deli meat anyway, I dont like it. I dont like the thought of what's been done to it and I particularly loathe ham.

But I cant eat it either, it causes me discomfort too. And I can eat bread!

One of the other really weird things I cant eat is any processed Breakfast Cereal like Cornflakes or Rice Bubbles. It just will not go down. Yet you'd think they'd almost be a mushy wouldnt you? Heavy muesli or oatmeal, no problem but rice bubbles, no way. Not good for me anyway, just processed sugary carbs.

Rice bubbles, heh... cute. Is that Rice Crispies? I love your language, Jachut. Some of your terms I smile, I just love them!

I think its the same thing - little bubbles of rice that go snap crackle pop?

Yeah! That's it! Rice Crispies. Yum! I like a few Rice Crispies with my sugar. It's about the only time I put sugar on cereal.

I can't eat lunchmeat either. It has to be solid turkey breast. Julie

I get the deli to shave the chicken breasts so that they are falling apart thin, then I make chicken salad out of it. The ham and roast beef don't shave the same way.
