Having a stomach ache or regular problems with your stomach might be one of the most aggravating things to deal with. Especially when you've got eyes bigger than your tummy. In the daily life of a person plagued by stomach issues, there are so many moments of anguish over foods that cannot and shouldn't be eaten. Here's a list of things we all feel when our tummy isn't feeling right:
1. "There will be free cookies!!!!" does not spur excitement
2. "Serving PIZZAAA!" also doesn't
Pizza is a delicious gift from the Gods, sent specifically to anger your intestines.
3. You are constantly checking food labels
The complicated ingredients don't faze you. "Hey, partially hydrogenated palm fruit oil! I didn't know you were in this snack!"
4. You're in awe of the friends who can eat anything they want to without pain
5. Not being able to eat anything your college makes
6. There is constant fear of letting a fart out in public
7. You love talking about your bowels with friends
Even during dinner conversations, which is a great way to make your group of dinner friends dwindle.
8. You rejoice when you discover tasty gluten-free/dairy-free/soy-free/nut-free (you get the point) versions of your favorite foods.
9. Picking from a menu is one hundred times easier
Especially when you can only properly digest a single entree.
