OK, I can post what I eat but I'm not stable so it's not a foolproof menu:
cereal with rice milk (oatmeal squares, wheaties, rice chex) oatmeal made with water or rice milk, brown sugar baked potatoes (both regular and sweet) fried rice with chicken and veggies (I use a nonstick pan so that I don't actually fry it) broiled chicken and fish (flounder, salmon) bananas, apples, mango, pineapple carrots - grate them, add a bit of cold water, sugar, and lemon juice, eat with some SF stir fries with noodles and chicken chocolate rice cakes with toffuti cream cheese and avocado slices
that's what I can think of now

alright girlie chill, heres a few ideas of what I eat daily
oatmeal with almond milk with frozen or fresh blueberries a tsp of flaxseed and 1/2 tsp of brown sugar for sweetness. cook in microwave 4 minutes.. (not the instant)
morning snacks loving Applepie lara bars and cinnamin one too (all fruit and nuts)
lunch at work: sandwich turkey or chicken breast (organic applegate farms) with stone ground mustard on french bread. with kids size motts organic applesauce. I know boring but its quick and easy.
3:00 snack a few raw almonds or fruit leather
dinner: varies either chicken,fish with rice or potato. Or I make a big soup with veggies FF chicken or veggie broth with chicken or rice noodles.
dessert: small amount of sorbet or purely decadent frozen dessert. fav is cookies and cream. but i only eat this once a week.
hope this helps??
-------------------- IBS-C gas, bloating and acid reflux
Babies is the plan for 2008!!Hope this IBS cooperates.

Hi there. I love talking about the foods I eat. Lately this is what I've been doing:
Breakfast - oatmeal w/almond milk
Lunch - white basmati rice w/egg white omelet (filling is a few black beans cooked in Pam w/organic canned tomatoes and ground chipotle powder -- I know, no tomatoes for you!)
Dinner - white basmati rice again w/steamed vegetables (plenty of carrots for SF, broccoli, grape tomatoes, peeled zucchini, peeled yellow squash and a tiny bit of red pepper)
For snacks, I like Newman's Own products lately (the arrowroot cookies are great) and any baked corn chips brand. I love Heather's cornbread, the orange cranberry bread and the Ultimate Chocolate Pudding Brownies on the recipe index.
I also make a cup of hot cocoa every day. I use 1 cup unsweetened almond milk, 1 TBS sugar and 2 tsp unsweetened cocoa powder. So delicious and soothing and warm and wonderful.
I hope this helps at least get your brain and body back in food-loving mode.

This is a typical weekday menu for me:
Breakfast: 1 cup Rice Krispies plus about 1 tbs of wheat bran cereal (for extra fibre and some IF), 1 cup of Silk Light soy milk, 1 hard-boiled egg white, and 2 tsp Acacia powder.
Snack: 1 sourdough English muffin with a small amount of light dairy-free margarine
Lunch: sandwich made with sourdough bread, chicken, turkey, or fat-free ham, a light smear of low-fat mayonnaise, and mustard. A cup of hot peppermint tea (store brand, not Heather's).
Snack: plain rice cake
Dinner: usually a lean meat (chicken breast or fish) with potatoes, turnip, or rice, usually with some peas or corn thrown in for some IF; or pasta with tomato sauce with a slice of homemade safe garlic bread; or a tofu stirfry with carrots, rice, and ginger sauce. A multivitamin and 1 tbs of Acacia powder. I should add that I do 10 minutes on my stationary bike after dinner to kind of help get my digestion going - I think it helps!
Snack: anything from a little soy yogurt to a few graham crackers.

Well, here are some easy quick things that i've been eating lately. But bear in mind that i don't eat wheat, i have a really hard time with any vegs, so i don't eat enough of them, i am not much of a cook, and i have no time to spend on lengthy recipes.
breakfast: oatmeal with vanilla soymilk, ground flaxseed, some frozen mixed berries nuked in the microwave
lunch: rice toast or quinoa toast with tuna or turkey or chicken, dijon mustard, lowfat mayo. sweet green peas or steamed spinach on the side. OR applesauce or organinc butternut squash soup on the side if i'm feeling the need for more SF.
dinner: sushi - i am partial to raw fish over rice. for some IF I get an order of spinach gomae (boiled spinach in sesame sauce - order the sauce on the side to control fat)
baked chicken/turkey/fish with a baked yam/potato and a steamed green veg (chard, kale, asparagus, spinach)
tofu marinated in miso and soy sauce with brown or white rice, seaweed, shredded carrot, sesame seeds .. it varies
warm quinoa salad - baby spinach or arugula with warm quinoa and baked yam or squash, topped with ground almonds, ground flaxseed and dried cranberries in a balsamic vinaigrette
egg white omelette - i often put mushrooms and greens in it - on rice toast or with potatoes
brown rice pasta with canned salmon, a little pesto, lots of ground black pepper and lemon
prawns or scallops over rice or mixed in asian white rice pasta with a little lemon, garlic and sesame or olive oil and an IF veg on the side
Mind you there are lots of great recipes on the Recipe board. no one should be subjected to my pathetic attempts at "cuisine"!

Instant oatmeal usually has added oat bran - which means more insoluble fiber. Perhaps you could try the regular rolled oats? I like the Robin Hood brand quick-cooking oats.
