Thank you Susie. That was partly why I was going to send a private message, as I don't want to say Heather's diet didn't work as I am sure for many it does, I am just more complex and I could see you were too. I have some further questions if that is ok? Why is white rice cooled? Why no salmon with potatoes? Is brown rice not ok? I say that because I eat rice cakes and they are brown, I believe In terms of veg, just courgette, pepper and carrots (peeled)? Why grilled chicken breast? Can it be cooked in the oven? So breakfast could be porridge (that is easy) but can I add spices? Like ginger or cinamon? Lunch - not sure - chicken (cold ok?) and cold white rice? Dinner - fish (white?) and the veg mentioned? Does that sound reasonable. In terms of snacks is there anything acceptable? Oh yes I forgot potatoes, so could have jacket potato and say tuna? Not sure I understand about the fat. Do I add a little fat in, by say drizzling olive oil on (small amount?) How long to see a change? I am assuming only a few days maybe? If I then start to add things back in again I assume that they should be on the principles of EFI & Fodmap. Not sure at this stage what would be ok to add in, but first I want to get some relief. I have a friend that has IBS attacks. I am like it every day and have been for years. The odd day my bowel is normal is a huge cause for celebration. Sorry to ask questions, it is a little overwhelming at present but I will (must) do it as I want to feel better. I may have more things once my head is clearer. Thank you very much for your help. Sarah
