Not sure if maybe it's because I'm a guy, but I have actually lost 40lbs since being diagnosed with IBS (From 190 to 150). Basically because I can't eat anything anymore. The large amount of carbs doesn't make up for the huge loss of fat in my diet, and as for activity, it goes in spurts, but I would not consider myself "active" on a day to day basis.
Not sure if this is welcome help or not, but I've noticed that as I have sharply reduced my eating, my hunger has also dropped with it. Before I was always hungry, and now I often need to remind myself to eat.
