Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards | 6 week body makeover issues HELP

I've not visited the posts in a very long time. I've been feeling really good - following Heather's suggestions and taking Xifaxan. I can count on one hand the number of episodes I've had in the past 8 months! (Yay for me!). THEN I went and screwed up. I need to lose at least 30 lbs. I saw the 6 week body makeover by Michael Thurmond informercial and ordered the product. It's a real all or nothing kind of program. Here's what I'm eating. Breakfast: 2 oz protein (usually egg whites) and 1/2 c (applesauce)fruit. AM Snack: 2oz protein (turkey breast) 2 oz fruit (cantaloupe) Lunch: 2oz protein (chicken) 1/2 c carbs (potatoes or white rice) and 1 c veggies (carrots) PM Snack 2 oz protein 1/2 c carbs Dinner 2 oz protein 1/2 c cabrs 1 c veggies and PM snack 1/2 c fruit. No salt, sugra, alcohol allowed. I eat every 2-3 hours. I feel bloated and full. My stomach is gassy. I either have diarhea or I'm constipated. It's just like before I started feeling better. I've lost 10 lbs BUT I'm miserable. Can anyone help - Heather maybe you can chime in. THANKS! Sorry for the long post.
