Hi Cyde, and WELCOME to the Boards!
Good for you, joining WW! Since there's no WW near you, check out the WW online program. It's AWESOME! You can record your weight every week and track your points daily. You can find lotsa super recipes and calculate points for recipes you already have. There's a support board as well, with great folks there too!
Check it out: web page One thing, though, that you should know: stay clear of all Weight Watchers processed foods! Don't even LOOK at the candies, frozen meals and desserts! They're FULL of all kinds of evil IBS triggers: High Fructose Corn Syrup, Maltitol Syrup, artificial sweeteners, and Heaven-Forbid DAIRY! I got very sick when I first started on WW, doubled over in pain, with cramps, "D", nausea -- the works! Now I know better. I make all my own meals, using WW recipes, and substituting soy for all the dairy. And obviously I do not put HFCS, Maltitol or artificial sweeteners in any of my recipes. They're all delicious and easy to digest. I got this advice from folks on the WW support board who also have IBS. It IS do-able, you just have to work at it.
Good luck -- and welcome!
Bev
