Hi Renee, I didn't have IBS as an undergrad, but I do now and I'm a grad student, so I know how it is! You need to watch out for stress and fatigue (I'm really bad about that...).
As for cooking, do you have an occaisonal ride to the store or are you on a meal plan? You could stock up on supplies, especially things like tea, pasta, rice, crackers, cereal and other safe foods that last a long time. You could also freeze loaves of bread, this goes for Heather's homemade breads too. I like to take a Sunday and make a couple loaves of zucchinni bread and freeze 'em. As for veggies and fruit, I suppose you could try frozen ones. I'd guess they are better than canned. Also buy the soy milk that's not refridgerated. I don't have a lot of time to cook during the week, so I'm a big fan of super-easy things, like pasta, stir-fry and the like. Once you get used to the diet, it becomes second nature, but I know it's tough at first, so if you got more questions, post 'em! Good Luck! Julie
