I should weigh about 95-98 lbs (I'm small). I now weigh 80 lbs - maybe less these last few days. I have a good appetite, but cannot eat due to colon spasms. The dr. had me on red meat, dairy and tons of natural oils to fatten me, but after I read about the IBS "nos" I have now dropped all that and am on chicken, oatmeal, squash basmati white rice and some patee of baby food consistency made from soaked raw organic almonds. Yet I can eat so, so little, and STILL have the spasms!

IS ANYONE ELSE EXPERIENCING THIS? What are you doing, if anything, for weight gain if you can't eat? (That sounds like a really stupid question, but I'm desperate!)
