Hi Mikhaela, Welcome to the board and so glad you have found it helpful. I'm also IBS-C and I feel so much better and actually going two to three times a week. You got a lot of great advice, so I won't write much. As for the white bread buy it fresh. I don't do well with the bread on the shelf - think there is too much addivitives. Fresh sourdough bread is the best and fresh french bread is also yummy. Add the veggies slowly once you are stable. I do eat fresh salads almost everyday now. It is the one thing I refuse to give up. I buy only Romaine lettuce and still do not eat uncooked cauliflower and broccoli - I cook those well and mash. I also don't eat plain oatmeal anymore. I add wheat germ or flaxseed to it for the insoluble and oatbran hot cereal is really good. Make sure you are stable before adding insoluble to your diet. Take care and hope you are feeling better.
