 do you ever find the time to breathe?

So that is why I alook like a Smurf. I forgot to breathe :-)

a hord of eager sick people who've been longly looking for a solution to their misery, finally hopefully see land...

hv, this GAPS diet is basically meat (and meat stock) and no carbs no milk products.

That is different that what I read on it:

http://gapsdiet.com/INTRODUCTION_DIET.html

I hate meat wholeheartedly, it isn't a matter of philosophy for me, it just revolts me. I can eat it "sometimes' if I have to, but all the time for 2 years is terrifying. What do you think of that?

To make a pure diet out of meat is not a good idea. That is a very unbalanced diet. Althought the bone stock will provide nutrients like silica. And the gelatin provides the amino acids  for collagen and elastin.

what's the relation between eating a lot of meat and having a healthy gut?

Nothing. It is the vegetables and probiotic foods they listed for the diet that increase gut health. They do include vegetables as well, but I am surprised they say to remove anything fibrous as these fibers feed the flora. Then they say to cook the vegetables to pretty much mush. I assume they are saying to do this to break down the finer fibers in the vegetables.

can I do the rest for guts - supplements and fermented stuff - and still eat my bowl of rice?

If you maintain your stomach acidity and flora in the gut then there should be no problems with eating rice. And if you are talking about brown rice then the bran from the rice will help feed the flora.
