To quote Tamara (Little Minnie), when you have IBS, you need to treat your body like a spoiled child.

I have phases where honestly, all I can DEFINITELY, POSITIVELY tummy is GATORADE, organic applesauce and organic carrots and organic vegetable/no-chicken stock. So, take heart and know that you're in a phase or cycle and your body will bounce back. Just treat it lovingly, attentively and tenderly.

If I may make a few notes, though...
1. Lose the deli meat (additives/preservatives/m.s.g.--big time triggers!!!)
2. I would be ultra wary re: what is in your bread
3. Potatoes should be fine, peeled and well cooked. Are they organic? I'd eliminate the baked beans completely.
4. Your cereal could be a potential trigger. I suspect that it is a HUGE TRIGGER!!! Cereals are filled with additives/preservatives/chemicals and colours/vitamins.
5. Bananas are "iffy"
6. Personally, I cannot tolerate any rice or soy milk.
7. Don't laugh, but mustard is actually good for D, or so I've read.
8. Honestly, I don't know what the ultimate cause is, and I know you're supremely stressed and a survivor of trauma. All you can do is baby yourself.

Finally, I don't think you're doing anything wrong. I think you're just in a phase and honestly...I get this way too and all you can do is take Immodium and be conscious, treat your body as a "SPOILED CHILD" try different approaches, rest/meditate/hypno. etc. I does pass...

I know you'll isolate the triggers, if indeed they exist.
Maybe you just have a very violated and sad psyche expressing itself via a huge root chakra rebellion. HUGS.

Kate, IBS-D.
