I'm kinda new here so not sure this is accurate but the thing that pops out at me is the "V8" juice - is this the juice in a can? I think that's pretty acidic, it would make my huband run for the toilet - but he's IBS - D, and you and I are IBS - C. I made speghetti with turkey meatballs last night with plenty of sourdough toast - it still affected him.
Here is a sample menu that I've been eating daily (with lots of adjustments) for me that seems to work really well:
Breakfast: Oatmeal w/soy milk (1/2 caff weak coffee with soy AFTER I eat the oatmeal)
Snack: Soy yogurt with a few raspberries
Lunch: Turkey burger with rice cheese, mustard, a little lettuce, and veganaise (veg/soy based mayo), baked chips.
Snack: Banana strawberry soy smoothie.
Dinner: Turkey & avacado sandwich on sourdough bread, smooth, organic broccoli soup.
Snack: Lowfat grahm crackers, peppermint tea.
(plus about 3 quarts of water a day)
I hope I'm getting enough fruits and veggies - I worry about that with all the carbs I've been eating. But, this diet REALLY WORKS
