Hi Everyone, I have been lurking for a while and finally decided it was time to ask questions! My situation is that I am more prone to IBS-C but honestly, that is more in control these days. My main complaint is gas and bloating in my lower stomach. It is usually very hard and distended. I bought Heathers book with the IBS diet, but my feeling is, it seems from reading it, and the boards that it is a diet more suited to those with IBS D. My first steps have been giving up dairy and all artificial sweetners.This has helped a lot! My diet was pretty free of red meat and fatty foods so that was not an issue, but prior to this I have been eating VERY HIGH INSOLUBLE FIBER foods. Now I've been cutting this down and it has helped but I'm not sure the french bread/ potato route is the best for someone with my symptoms. I can see how with IBS D it would be great, but is there anyone out there that has my similar symptoms that follows Heathers diet and having good results? Thank you!
