Hi - I'd definitely encourage you to avoid any high fat, high protein diet if you have IBS. It's likely to make you much worse.
Use the "search" button to look for past posts on combining the IBS diet with low carb needs. There are a lot of posts on this. There are also posts on going gluten free while following the IBS diet.
About wheat and IBS, check here web page
If you need to go completely wheat free, stick to soluble fiber foods like rice, rice noodles, oatmeal, potatoes, corn meal, corn tortillas, baked corn chips, quinoa, barley, root veggies, etc.
The IBS diet is completely dairy free, so no worries there.
In general, if you're overweight just following the basic IBS diet will likely lead to weight loss. It has for many people. There are quite a few posts on the board about this as well.
Here's the basic guidelines web page
Welcome to the board!
Best,
Heather
