Hi everyone. I am new to the message boards but not new to this site, and certainly not new to IBS. I am 29 years old, diagnosed with IBS when I was 17, but have memories of IBS-related problems since at least the age of 14, if not before. I could post my life story here, but I'll stick to the basics - my main problems are D, with occasional C, and I used to get AWFUL bloating and gas, but have recently (miraculously) fixed that simply by cutting non-rice breakfast cereals from my diet altogether.
After debating trying this diet for probably over two years now (I am a HUGE lover of dairy), I finally decided to give it a try. I started on Monday, and Wednesday evening I had a horrible attack of D - just out of the blue. Thursday I was fine, and then nearly all day today I've had intermittent attacks of D-like cramps, but no D. Frankly my confidence in this diet is already shaken. 
Has anyone else had this experience when starting out with the diet? Or can anyone offer some advice? Do I need to provide more info?
TIA and sorry so long...

IBS-A since age 12, and fructose sensitive; with the exception of my pregnancy, have been following Heather's diet since Nov. 19, 2007.
Taking 12g of Acacia per day. Relatively stable since March 2008!
