Daily Foods

So what do you all eat on a typical day? I thought this might help us suffering from IC and not having a clue what to chow down on

[jaime15]

I guess I'm one of the rare ones. I can eat pizza. (Just order it with little or no sauce). They have always accomodated me with getting the order right since we always order this way.

When the occasional flare is happening I do eat grilled chicken and plain rice. Or a plain baked potato. Just about any meat that's grilled doesn't seem to bother me. Also drinking lots of water gets me through the day...

Hopefully someone else will post for you who goes by the IC diet better..
