I get my veggies by cooking them until they're very soft, sometimes putting them in a soup and letting it simmer a long time. The only time I eat lettuce is having a few pieces in a sandwich and it's Romaine lettuce then. I think for most people a salad is the hardest way to incorporate veggies, since it's very hard to tolerate. I'd suggest trying cooked spinach (others seemed to say it was more tolerable) and soft cooked veggies.
I hope you feel better soon,

I eat lots of squash and carrots (both SF) sauteed until tender. Never have a problem with those, as long as you don't use too much oil. I also add something like broccoli to the mix for a little IF, but I cut it into very small pieces, and usually have twice as much of the SF veggies as the IF. Also, I serve over white rice, which will help you digest the IF, too.
I can also eat green beans, as long as I have a good SF base with it like lots of rice or potatoes or bread. Think of the SF like bubble wrap for your IF. You need plenty to go around the IF and protect your gut. You want plenty of SF around the small amount of IF. ha ha... That's the best way I could think of to describe it.
You could probably even do spinach, if you don't overdo it and don't forget to "wrap" it in SF. I love Amy's frozen Vegetable Tofu Lasagna! It has some tomato and spinach, but it doesn't make me sick at all. I eat it with a few slices of french bread. Yum!
