Hi there Boston Dee!
Sounds like you are in good spirits and have the right attitude about this IBS!
I am C not D, but the high fats tend to do me in as well.
I'm from Mississippi, so everything here is FRIED! Argh!
I usually eat oatmeal with berries and acacia fiber and rice milk for breakfast, a banana and some grapes or other kind of fruit for a snack, some rice and some water packed tuna or salmon for lunch, and for an afternoon snack, I usually have a 1/2 cup carrots (snack pack) low sodium V8 and 1/2 cup applesauce. Some days I can tolerate almonds or cashews; somedays I can't. I try to keep it simple. Supper is about the same as breakfast - oatmeal and rice milk. (I'm also trying to lose weight) I eat the fish and nuts sometimes to keep me satieted. I have a hard time staying full, so I eat every 2-3 hours. This usually evens out my blood sugar levels, and keeps something in my tum so it's not vulnerable to triggers (such as that one Hershey's meltaway kiss that I usually have in the afternoon   )
Last night the DH cooked pork chops on the grill. They were so good, and I splurged and had one (after a few tastes I couldn't help myself). Well, today, I am paying for it BIG TIME! So much pain!
The fat is about the most difficult thing for me to give up, especially when it's in my face.
He is so understanding of my problems, and he goes out of the way to help me with my IBS. However, I don't want him to be deprived just because I can't eat something, so I try not to let it get to me, but sometimes, it does! I mean, I don't mind him eatng WHATEVER he wants. The temptation is just so hard!

IBS-C, Gas, Bloating, HURTING!
I'm married and it's so wonderful!
