Eat fat, not carbs

Posted by: Girrlock Holmes on: August 19, 2009

I was excited today to find the Gastroparesis & Dysmotilities Associations pamhplet on Small Bowel Bacterial Overgrowth & Digestive Motility Diseases. It looks to have been published in 2006 but its the first I’ve seen of it. I linked it to the yahoo group because I think its a very thorough document in an easy-to-understand format. [...]

That kid is back on the escalator again!

Posted by: Girrlock Holmes on: May 16, 2008

My job is often full of inappropriate people, but then a lot of jobs are. A lot of times it can actually feel like I’m babysitting a bunch of rude children, only I’m not really paying all that much attention to what they spend all day doing. I’ve been chided more than once for taking [...]

Cornflake Girls

I’m still at The Daily Plate and can’t get used to Fitday or any of the other calorie/nutrient counters, but I will say that the environment there is a little stifling. I guess my bad for being annoyed by the very thing that attracted me to the site in the first place – the “calorie [...]

The adventure of the very strange solution

Posted by: Girrlock Holmes on: February 17, 2008

This is what happens when one does not keep up with one’s blog. When one’s notes are strewn all over the place, in journals and notepads and one’s daily plate. I will attempt to recreate the best I can the events of the past few weeks.
I passed on the nutritionist’s request for hydrogen breath tests [...]

Whatever day we’re on now

Posted by: Girrlock Holmes on: January 21, 2008

I’m sick to death of this diet. I thought keeping this blog would help me hold onto an “on a quest” feeling, but its not really working. Today I made flatbread from amaranth flour and arrowroot powder and olive oil. It was amazing. The recipe, from The Complete Candida Guidebook, makes 8 little flatbreads. Of [...]


A Year Without Cake

A blog about Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO/SBBO) written from a patient's perspective. Definitely not a definitive medical guide. Please do not read this blog as medical advice but rather experiential info from a well-researched, but often super-brain-fogged patient.


  • candacevan: I learn something new every day. I'd never heard of defecation syncope, and so of course I read up on it. It seems to be one of the "reflex-mediated s
  • Nikki: Girrlock Holmes, Hi I was just wondering if you could help. I have been experiencing severe abdominal pain after eating, bloating on an empty stomac
  • Girrlock Holmes: At least for a few weeks; if it doesn't work I wanna eat salami and rasberries with you in a cabin in the woods in the mountains. xo
