I try not to peel my fruits and veggies whenever I can handle it. But then, I puree most of my fruits and veggies (cooked, peel-on where applicable). Probably 80% of my fruits and veggies are pureed... maybe more... and the only ones I eat not pureed are SF, such as bananas, carrots (cooked), potatoes, beets, mushrooms etc., sometimes cooked zucchini (with the peel on).
I find that pureeing F&V makes them much more tolerable, and I'm still getting the IF while making it much easier to digest. Honestly, as long as I eat SF with it, I can tolerate most F&V this way, peels and all (the only exception being the cuciferous ones - broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage etc. - still can't do those).
As a vegetarian I also eat beans everyday - happily I do ok with these. I started out only having them mashed but now I find I'm ok with them whole. So I get some IF there. I also usually have a few tbsps of nuts each day too - always very finely chopped.
Beth I think I eat more IF than you do and I'm a D! Just my 2-cents
