First of all you have to avoid all dairy. The cheesecake in addition to the other dairy could have made you worse this week even though you seemed to recover quicker last week. Sometimes the trigger foods are cumulative in effect and sometimes they are tardy in causing problems too. Also 50 oz of liquid is way too low. I am not sure if you are C A or D but focus on that and regularity first and staying strict on the diet. I find bloating can be a bear to completely fix and sometimes is seemingly out of nowhere. Fennel tea is the biggest help though. And yes proper hydration is important to not bloating as it is to all GI health. Doctors don't understand bloating anyway! Their tests are always inconclusive and they have no prescriptions for it. That is why it is my personal quest!

--------------------
IBS-A for 20 years with terrible bloating and gas. On the diet since April 2004. Remember this from Heather's information pages:
"You absolutely must eat insoluble fiber foods, and as much as safely possible, but within the IBS dietary guidelines. Treat insoluble fiber foods with suitable caution, and you'll be able to enjoy a wide variety of them, in very healthy quantities, without problem." Please eat IF foods!
