Hi Doug, I’ve been 811rv for just over 3 years now, the last
two in the tropics eating majority of my meals mono, and have
been having a recurring issue throughout this time. With a
lot of fruits I get what some people refer to as “melon
belly”. Just a slight upper belly pain mid meal which goes
away in about 15 minutes, and afterwards I can keep on eating.
An example is mangoes which after usually 3 (1kg) I get the
pain and then wait it out and then can eat another 6 (2 kg)
without any pain. Mangoes and melons are the worst but I can
also get it with rambutans, longans, bananas, and dates. Also
before living in the tropics I was getting it with apples and
grapes. I’ve never had it from more savoury salads or the
occasional raw zucchini pasta dishes, it only seems to be from
sweet fruits. Also no matter how much durian I eat I’ve never
had it from that.

I’m 37, 5’10”, 52kgs with about 10% body fat and since
starting 811 have gone from couch potato to very
active(cycling, running, yoga). Any ideas what could be
causing this issue?

Thanks,
Stephen
