Yeah I was diagnosed about 6 years ago. Yes my main problem is that I get gas after everything I eat and my secondary problem is constipation. the way i was eating (coffee, ezikiel bread w/ pb, salad with chicken on all romaine, and then veggies and chicken for dinner, and taking 2 aloe pills)) was helping the constipation( i was able to have a BM every other day)but sometimes as you know if i didnt get enough sleep or I was stressed or ate something not listed I would be backed up for 3-4 days and then all of sudden have D. So far it does seem like my body is not happy with this way of eating as I have become more constiapted and have gained weight. But what Im going to do is just try one thing at a time instead of going from 0 to 100 as far as going from little carbs(usually only at breakfast) to a diet loaded with process ones. So ill begin to add the fiber and more SF veggies but thats about all I am going to do for right now. Maybe I can start eliminating the coffee and get off the aloe if the fiber starts to work for me. I think i just need to go back to my eating b4 and try little things. Cutting out dairy ( used to have cheese on my veggies sometimes, and sugarfree fudgsicles for dessert a lot), adding the fiber and maybe adding more SF veggies to my salad and dinner.....we'll see
