I really encourage you to stick with it! I felt very limited with my diet at the beginning of the IBS diet, but once I was able to add in new foods, it got easier. And I felt worse before I felt better, which is something a lot of people who have stabilized will tell you.
Being vegetarian/vegan is a very personal decision, and you have to do it for the right reasons. I hope you will stick it out, and that you find Heather's diet works for you! I often think I'm very lucky to have IBS, because I dread to think what sort of crap I'd be eating today if I didn't have to pay such close attention!! I'm definitely healthier because of it.
