At my worst, I added minimal amounts of IF to meals (example: a few strawberries with my breakfast, a piece of lettuce on a sandwich ect...) only if I wasn't in pain. If I was in pain, I stuck to say, toast for breakfast, a plain baked sweet potatoe at lunch, and very small amounts of only white meat with safely cooked veggies and some SF for dinner. I slowly added Acacia and really pushed my water intake. It was easily a month before things moved on a daily basis, and another month or two before the bloat got managable.
I'm pretty stable now, but if I drop off on the water or the IF I get in trouble again. Gas is probably my worst problem at present - still pondering whether or not I am willing to try the Fennel - but the pain, bloat and C is gone. It took most of a year to get solidly stable - going every day - so no one is joking when we say patience is the key. Narrowed down - an SF base (for me, Acacia), plenty of water and plenty of IF keeps me pretty happy. Feel better soon!
