so after 15 years of IBS (I'm now 25), and countless tests, and medz, and tests, and shrinks...i've finally gone out a week ago and got heather's books on diet and the 'first year' (even though its my 15th)...and i must say i'm the best i have ever felt after about a week...i actually went out for a run in the neighborhood (instead of on the treadmill)...the only area I think i need to work out is I am usually IBS-D, and the diet is making me borderline normal/constipated..and i'm trying to make sure I don't fall into the latter...any tips on foods i can work with to add regularity...i have never been a fan of canned fiber..so i've just been sticking with:
white breads,white flour wrap, oatmeal soy milk/yogurt chicken, tuna, turkey bananas, strawberries (in a shake) graham crackers, crackers, humus egg whites, salsa
i haven't found easy vegetable to work into it though..that may help me...anyone have good veggie tips (for lunches and dinners), that will keep me centered? Is it too early for me to start playing around with the diet...maybe my body will readjust without anything additional...
