is just a "guideline" for people with IBS. You have to remember that everyone is different, and the diet isn't a "fix". Some people who follow the diet to a "T" have outstanding results and others don't have any. You need to figure out what works with your body, and what doesn't. Just because one person has luck with one thing doesn't mean that you're going to have the same luck. Same thing with things that other people can't have, maybe they'll work for others.
The important keys to success with C are mainly insolubles following a soluble base & plenty of water & excercise. The same holds true with these though... they're "guidelines" not a guarantee that it'll work.
You have to figure out for yourself what works. I know you've heard that a million times, and it's very discouraging, but that's unfortunately what it takes, for most of us.
It IS trial and error. The Mirilax might be a huge help to you in this department. It might be able to at least keep you going while you figure out what works. Then again... it is addictive or "habit forming". It's your call.
I'm not Heather, so I can't tell you if she is or isn't offended by your comments, but I'm sure you're not the only one who's had difficulty and has expressed it.
Good luck Beth!
