We were avoiding milk since yesterday. Today we started on the diet recommended by Joanna although not 100%. White rice is still being used, hopefully we get brown rice tomorrow. Tried a couple of places for green salad material - no luck yet. Milk, chappatis, nuts, protein powder, etc are out. Mint tea , 2 meals based on oatmeal and fruits (apple, banana), daal-chawal-sabji-dahi were the main things today. Will end the day with Chamomile tea ... mom magically scrounged a packet ! hopefully it aint decades old :)
Fewer complaints of stomach pain/burning although he did have it during the day ... severity was 7 on a scale of 10 ... yesterday was pretty bad so we gave it 10 points ... he did complain today of weakness quiet a bit .. mild head-reeling was there throughout the day

Dude,
Sounds like a start.
Green salad would be cucumbers, spinach, sprouts, carrots, beets, etc. Just a bunch of crunchy vegetables.
Not sure if banana qualifies as a fibrous fruit, but maybe good for energy.
Make sure he gets Triphala.
He had 2 tablets of Triphala today.
Bump it up to 6 tablets a day...
He is not too comfortable bumping it up that much. I am trying to convince him to take 3 for now. He has dared me to try 6 a day first :)
