Olivio is dairy, I would cut that out. You could try a soy margarine and see if you can handle soy in tiny doses. If you can't, there's always nut or fruit butters to use as a spread.

How do you make your stuffing? I love my mom's stuffing but it absolutely kills me because she uses fatty sausage in it. (Though she tries to be nice and uses olive oil instead of butter for me!)

I don't do well with spaghetti sauce (my bladder definitely doesn't, but I really think it's too acidic for my bowels as well). I eat my pasta plain with a tiny tiny bit of olive oil and salt/pepper/basil/whatever strikes my fancy.

Most people here get attacks from pork, so you might want to eliminate that for awhile. I don't eat pork myself, so I can't attest to it one way or the other.

If you want to try putting on weight, I'd suggest adding in some bananas and avocado, both of which are IBS safe foods (though eat the avocado in small amounts, because a whole avocado does have a lot of fat). Both are calorie dense foods.
