I think people with IBS sometimes lose weight because they're scared to eat. If you think about your mother's diet, there's nothing in there that's very calorie-dense.

This is why, though, it's so important to make sure she's had all the tests Heather linked you to: weight loss can be a sign of other health issues that can mimic IBS. So make sure she gets all the tests and then see if she can get her tummy calmed down with Heather's approach and start eating more and better. If there's nothing else wrong, that should help with her weight.
