Yesterday, the whole family went to the cabaret theater in Bridgeport for a show. The best part of the show is that you can bring your own food and chow during the show. The guy next to me was even cracking open some Corona's...I never though about bring beers, but I guess it makes sense. My mistake was that I chowed on a ton of Smartfood and Milano cookies - two things that someone with UC should avoid. Popcorn is too much for my digestive track (plus the high fat spray on cheese is not the best thing for you either) and chocolate is basically a laxative. Needless to say, I'm not feeling my best today. I assume those two things have irritated my colon. Things are still somewhat delicate, so anything can set me off. Maybe I'll be able to eat these things in the future when my body is working 100%, but I should definitely avoid them now. Will this UC hell ever end? ;)
