First off i would like to thank you for the very informative website. For about 10 years I have suffered through IBS without gettin a diagnosis. Eversince i was about 15 or so my stomach did not care for certain foods, and would retaliate with bad cramps and dhiarea. After talking with my mother, it appears that my uncle to has IBS so i figure its very possible i could to. About a month ago i looked up "IBS" on the internet and found this website. From then on, i have eliminated red meat from my diet completly, and rarely have any dairy. This was after a rather nasty 3 day IBS attack which came after i was lazy and had burgers and other bad for you red meat. I went out and i bought myself a blender, soy milk, and bananas and started making soy smoothies for breakfast three weeks in a row. I also bought the orange flavored metamucil as well. My problem right now is its starting to get boring, and i am trying to find new things to add to my diet. Chicken and rice is only exciting for so long. Here is what i like: fish, chicken, pasta, shrimp, crab, pork. I am a bachelor living on my own, so i need to find quick and easy recipies that are tummy friendly. I read a lot of the recipies on this website, and they are pretty time consuming. Anyone have some advice for a guy who doesn't like most vegatables (i like carrots, cuccumbers, lettuce, tomatoes, potatoes, sweet potatoes, and sometimes asparagus...although i have only cooked asparagus correctly 1/4 times) to liven up my dinners? I also bought a rice cooker with a steamer and was wondering what else i can cook in there!
