I'm sure this was mentioned, but if she isn't used to soy, I would reccomend starting slow. It can be hard on the tummy too. I can't have dairy myself, but also have a very hard time with soy. I can handle a little if I use Beano first, but even stil only a little. One thing I have found helpful and not too hurtful is adding soy protein powder to a fruit smoothie every morning and lunch. I get mine at the local Winco in the bins. I too worry about getting enough protein.
Also, did someone else mention that splenda is a nono?
I feel for you,( though I didn't realize that was what my daughter had) my 16 year old has suffered with C since she was 3 weeks old. Drs have never once even mentioned it was IBS. It wasn't until I was hit with the opposite, that I realized that was what it was. Gotta love drs....grrrrr Anyway, hope she is having another good morning. Alyson
