Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards | Trying the "eating out" thing again..

I have to admit I don't eat out much as I hate being seen as a pain when ordering and my last restaurant meal ended in several days of pain.

Even when I go to friends places I usually offer to bring a plate so I know I have something "safe" to eat.

On Monday we have a work lunch on and I really want to go rather than stay back at school eating my packed lunch by myself.

The menu was faxed to us and after careful consideration I have put in my order.

I marked it as a special request on the order form and asked for:
the grilled salmon without any butter, oil or sauce.
baked potato without any butter, oil, sce, sour cream etc.
steamed vegies and a white bread roll.

I'm really hoping for success this time and think I've picked a pretty safe combination.

What do you all think?

I'm hoping that if it goes OK it will give me more confidence at eating out.

I'm going away with family for five days in Feb and am already stressing about what I'll eat!
