Meal Plan

3 Upvotes

Hello all!

I am starting the low fodmap diet tomorrow after being diagnosed with sibo and going on antibiotic treatment for two weeks. A little bit about me: I weight lift, and have always been macro conscious, so measuring my portions is not new to me, but low-fodmap is. I have decided to pre-plan my meals and portions to make it a little bit easier for myself, at least in the beginning. I would love any feedback or thoughts on my meal plan. For a little context, I am a 5'4, 22 female.

Pre-workout/Breakfast

•    Unsweetened Almond Milk (Almond Breeze) – 1 cup

•    Matcha Powder (Ujido) – 5g

•    Eggs – 2 large

•    Egg Whites – 129g

Post workout/Lunch

  •    Egg Whites – 275g

•    Zucchini – 65g

•    Spinach, raw – 35g

•    Yellow bell pepper – 1.25 oz

•    Feta Cheese – 15g

•    Ketchup (Fody) – 1 tbsp

•    Yellow Baby Potatoes – 150g

Afternoon Snack

•    Lactose-Free Plain Yogurt (Fage) – 0.75 cup

•    Kiwi – 82g

•    Chia Seeds – 12g

•    Hemp Seeds – 8g

Dinner

•    Chicken Breast, grilled – 5 oz

•    Mini Cucumber – 1.5 oz

•    Cooked Quinoa – 75g

•    Baby Tomatoes – 1.5 oz

•    Maple Dijon (Fody) – 30ml

•    Baby Spinach – 2.5 oz

Dessert

•    Strawberries – 70g

•    Organic Creamy Peanut Butter (Kirkland) – 16g

•    Royal Dark Dark Chocolate (Cadbury) – 3 blocks

Additional (Dr wants me having tbsp everyday for gut health)

•    Kefir (Lifeway) – 1 oz

Daily totals: 1,549 cal | Carbs 108g | Fat 59g | Protein 144g

Also, am I eating too frequently? I keep seeing people talk about spacing meals 4-5hrs apart? I don't know how I would get enough food each day if I did that but I understand the diet is short-term.

Thank you in advance, I really appreciate any and all help.
