applesauce, canned fruit, mushrooms! Make a omelet with egg beaters, spinach and lots of mushrooms and you will get less than 200 calories I think. Eat malto meal or cream of wheat for breakfast with light soy milk that comes to about 225. Mangoes are 50 or so I think and all these things are easy to digest. It just takes some planning and alterations to be safe but eat less calories. You can add back veggies and fruits as soon as possible. In fact for IBS-C you should still be eating lots of veggies! Try a sweet potato microwaved with smart balance light and salt and pepper.

--------------------
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!
