Since you can't ever indulge in fattening treats or fattening occassional meal I found losing weight really easy at first. Also just in feeling better I exercised more and just not being bloated seemed to make me less of a person so to speak . I used to eat gas station cookies couple times a week and ice cream and candy bars and that kind of stuff, so even though now sometimes I wish I could have a salad instead of so much bread and rice, I still am taking in less fattening food. Lately though since it is winter I have been eating like a horse and gained back 4 pounds!
-------------------- IBS-A for 20 years with terrible bloating and gas. On the diet since April 2004. Remember this from Heather's information pages:
"You absolutely must eat insoluble fiber foods, and as much as safely possible, but within the IBS dietary guidelines. Treat insoluble fiber foods with suitable caution, and you'll be able to enjoy a wide variety of them, in very healthy quantities, without problem." Please eat IF foods!
