First of all, can you try to keep your question in one thread so we don't post the same answers all over?
Second C is tougher than D I grant you. But you have to take more soluble fiber supplement! I have seen that cure C for people with horrible C before (like my SIL). Lately I have been more C too- maybe winter?- and upped my water and acacia. Problem solved.
From experience I have seen so many people think they are following the EFI diet but they are only really doing the break the cycle along with a bunch of bad foods. You have to eat more IF in your meals, especially watery IF like fruits and veggies (see my other post).
However, as I tried to type up tonight, bloating isn't always curable. If you have bad IBS you might have to live with it to some extent. It is hard to cope with that when young and single. It sounds like your bloating bothers your vanity as much as being uncomfortable. Go running shirtless in the morning when not bloated and hide it in the afternoon. Hey I sometimes can't button my pants back up after peeing at work in the afternoon. I focus on being 'in shape' and knowing I could hike some skinny person into the ground.
--------------------
IBS-A for 20 years with terrible bloating and gas. On the diet since April 2004. Remember this from Heather's information pages:
"You absolutely must eat insoluble fiber foods, and as much as safely possible, but within the IBS dietary guidelines. Treat insoluble fiber foods with suitable caution, and you'll be able to enjoy a wide variety of them, in very healthy quantities, without problem." Please eat IF foods!
