Hi.

you say you have tried this diet. how long have you been doing it? do you make sure you're having soluble fiber with each meal? how about the way you're eating the veggies--- are they cooked? are they chopped up small? because that's the only way you may be able to tolerate them.

if you haven't incorporated a soluble fiber supplement, you should do so. i found that went a long way to reducing the bloating and gas i was experiencing. i also found that i'm more "socially acceptable" when i'm not eating wheat. when you select your soluble fiber supplement, make sure it doesn't have psyllium in it, as some people react strongly to that (bloating, gas). once you get the right soluble fiber supplement for you and work your way up (slowly) to the right dose for you, you will find that this problem is less of a problem! meanwhile, invest in a tiny can of air freshener. i used to joke that i was going to wear those pine tree fresheners as earrings!
