I know how you feel, I am very active as well and was always eating a diet high in lean protein (1gr per pd), tons of fruit veggies and the only complex carb I would have was the occasional sweet potato and oatmeal. I am fairly new to the site as well, after my diagnosis roughly 3 weeks ago I was determined to avoid taking meds to help with the symptoms so I figured I would see my options pertaining to dietary changes that could be made.
For me oatmeal still seems to be bothersome, so I replaced that with brown rice....and I refuse to eat refined carbs, so I won't even bother with the breads (although i did try sourdough bread and it actually gave me some probs)...everyone seems to be affected by different things but I feel the basis of the plan has helped me greatly...for the first time in about a year my stomach is flat, you can see my abs once again lol (i'm not so depressed about putting the hard work in at the gym now lol)..and I have curtailed my protein intake to about 60 grams a day, I still look lean and my stomach upset and bloating has subsided....I still consume about 1 1/2 c of blueberries and cherries mixed daily and about a banana and a half. I split that into three "mini-meals" mixed with brown rice and cinnamon. That doesn't affect me. Also, I still have my veggies, usually cauliflower and brussels but I only have that twice a day with dinner and lunch. I also make sure to have about 2T of almond butter throughout the day to get my good fats in. Funny thing is I am eating more complex carbs now and I look leaner than I have in a long time!  I also will have spaghetti squash quite often which I seem to tolerate well.....I don't know if coffee is a big thing for you...(it was for me) I tried the low acidity simply smooth coffee and I seem to tolerate that well too, but we are all different
