Being miserable after lunch is very common. I can suggest some things that help- a little. Switch some of that water (that does sound like a lot but shouldn't be causing a problem) for fennel tea (mix with peppermint). Make sure to walk around as much as possible- especially right after lunch! Try not to sit too much. Eat slowly and even standing up if you can- that helps a lot. Don't eat cabbage or anything like that which causes gas. Also stay away from the acidy stuff. My body wants to poo a little after I eat and my not letting it at work is a big factor in after lunch bloating, pain and gas. Walking is my best bet.

Your actual IF/SF ratio seems ok to me for what you wrote.

--------------------
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!
