What I Eat in a Day w/ IBS- Tasty Tuesday!

Welcome back to Tasty Tuesday everyone! I know that usually I share some recipes that are gluten and lactose free on Tuesdays but I thought instead of sharing some kind of recipe, I would share with y'all what foods I typically grab to eat quickly when I don't have time to cook anything. Many of you may know I struggle with IBS along with gluten and lactose intolerance so finding quick things to fix can be a bigger struggle that normal. I hope this helps you find some things to eat if you struggle with it like I do.
 
 
Breakfast:
I used to LOVE yogurt. However, when I found out I was lactose intolerant I had to give yogurt up of course. So when my mom found that Yoplait made lactose free yogurt in both Vanilla & Strawberry flavor, we bought the mother load. (Like we bought the whole shelf of it at our local Walmart). This makes such a quick breakfast that is still filling. I don't have to get a pan and wait to scramble and egg but I also don't have to eat all the junk in gluten free bread products like waffles. PERFECT!
Side Note: These are also super tasty if you want to put some strawberries or blueberries on top with gluten free granola and make a parfait.
 
 
Lunch:
Although many different companies make gluten free breads, I just cant bring myself to eat them most of the time. Not only do they just not taste good, but I cant pronounce any of the ingredients which is never good. I like to often make a roll up and take some honey maple turkey and wrap it around a dill pickle or in this case a cheese stick. Because I am lactose intolerant I can only have the sharp cheddar cheese sticks but if you want to get different kinds of cheeses to roll up with your meat feel free. I was out by the pool this day and this was something quick and easy to eat while on the porch along with some Dorito Chips :)
Side Note: I also usually like to have something like a really cold Gatorade when I am outside all day or working out because it keeps me hydrated and something about a cold fruit punch flavored drink tastes amazing by the pool during summer ;)
 
 
Snack:
Around 2pm I will get a little hungry but I wont be in the mood to fix anything since dinner time is soon. Since I already had chips with my lunch, I decided to go with these snap pea crisps. They are essentially the same sensation as munching on potato chips but these are super healthy and don't have much of a taste. These are the original ones but I know that Publix has many different flavors of them that many recommend.
 
  
Dinner:
I didn't get a photograph of my dinner because I was in such a rush to get out the door for work that I didn't grab anything to eat until I was back home at 10:30pm. I definitely don't recommend eating dinner that late but I was pretty hungry and enjoyed some nice leftover shrimp my mom cooked for dinner that night with a mandarin orange.
