I follow Weight Watchers, and did before IBS. I lost about 30 lbs. and have kept it off for 3 years now.
While IBS does make it a little trickier to get in all one's fruits and veggies, it is not impossible. As for artificial sweetners, just avoid them like you do anyway. As for dairy, well, just do soy or whatever your moo replacement of choice already is.
WW now has two different plans. There's the points system where you get so many per day based on your weight and the Core system. You do not count points on Core, but I don't know much about it beyond that. I lost all my weight with points and just kept with it since it works for me.
Oh, and you can "earn points" for exercising, which then means you can eat a bit more that day.
If you have more questions, fire away. I'd be happy to answer them. I think I'm one of the few people here who won't say "OH NO!" whenever WW is mentioned. I know it does not work for everyone, but it HAS worked for me. I'd be happy to answer any questions.
