Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards

I have noticed that many recipes seem to mention "take your tolerences into account" I have noticed various recipes that would make me sick (and I don't have ibs).

Right now it seems like everything makes my dh sick so trying to narrow it down to what he can't eat is frustrating. He figures he is most likely going to be sick anyways, so why not just eat.

I noticed in one of my reads on this site (atleast I think it was here), that that is how ibs works. One day you can eat something and you will be fine, and the next time it sends you running to the toilet.

So sometimes I feel discouraged trying to help. Must be REALLY annoying for y'll. Was it breakfast that triggered this or the snack I just had?

On a different note how long did it take you to adjust to your new diet? We live in cow country and beef is a staple in most of our meals during the week. We noticed that beef is one of the trigger foods. In fact, most of the trigger foods make up our diet. We have the table upside-down

How long did you die-hard "Beef, it's what's for dinner" folk take to adjust your diet/wean into a new life?
