First of all I want to make a statement: I'm not concerned about your physical appearance and no longer will take the time to advise on it. I will give advice on how to keep your symptoms under control- if you actually listen to what I say.
Of course you feel full and bloated after food and protein shake. That was the one point I have been making- protein powder is too heavy to eat with food. It has to be taken alone.
That amount of protein strikes me as too high but I am not an expert. On the other hand, I truly believe protein is often recommended in doses that are way too high. That is why I said before to gradually up your protein. Why not start with one dose of powder a day for a week? You would help yourself a lot by not wanting instant change. ock young people! so rash.
-------------------- 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!
