There are ways to eat a safe IBS diet and still eat less carbs and specifically less simple carbs. So for you I would say to focus on fruits and veggies but eat the ones that are safer. For instance, there are SF fruits and veggies that are pretty low in calories. Center your diet around these. Examples: mushrooms, summer squash, carrots, sweet potatoes (some cals but a great sugar substitute), mangoes, avocadoes, bananas, artchoke hearts, etc. Then work in the easier IF veggies like spinach, cooked peas and green beans, etc. A great low cal breakfast would be an egg white omelet with mushrooms and spinach; throw in acacia if needed. I eat a lot of cooked baby carrots, with ginger and honey, for a light 'meal'. For me it isn't so much the carbs as the sugar that is the problem. HFI does not have to be labeled a diet that is prone to weight gain or loss! It is so flexible and can be adapted to either. I have lost and gained weight on it.
My notion on bloating is that it is less what we eat and more how we eat and how our bodies function. I have never found a 'diet' that doesn't make me bloat in the long run.

--------------------
IBS-A for 20 years with terrible bloating and gas. On the diet since April 2004. Remember this from Heather's information pages:
"You absolutely must eat insoluble fiber foods, and as much as safely possible, but within the IBS dietary guidelines. Treat insoluble fiber foods with suitable caution, and you'll be able to enjoy a wide variety of them, in very healthy quantities, without problem." Please eat IF foods!
