Question for Erind

Since you are a nutritionist and IBS expert, I was hoping you could share some insight with me. I have been following the EFI diet for about a year and a half now, am up to 2 TBS of acacia fiber per day, and take about 2 - 3 peppermint caps per day and also just start using Align about 4 months ago. I finally have settled into a stable place with my IBS-D. I always think of my IBS on a scale of 1-10 (where 10 would be no IBS issues) and I can happily say that I currently range from about an 8 to 9. I am realistic about my expectations and couldn't be happier with my results. THANK YOU TO HEATHER AND TO EVERYONE ELSE WHO HAS SHARED SUCH WONDERFUL, HONEST AND HELPFUL INFORMATION ON THIS SITE AND THESE MESSAGE BOARDS!!!

Now, to my question. I have always been very thin, but have noticed that since I started adhering to the EFI diet, I have lost about 10 pounds. I know this may be quite helpful for some people, but I'm now hovering around 105 pounds on a 5'5" frame. I wasn't planning on trying to lose weight. I need to know a healthy and effective way to start gaining some weight back. I do have triggers when I eat too much fatty food, so I need a steady and stable way to incorporate some calories into my diet. Your advice is much appreciated.

Thanks!
