Nope, not eating any fruits, veggies, or juices, which as I mentioned is leaving me somewhat C but not painfully so. My graduation was last weekend and my nephew's baptism was this past weekend, so I haven't been fanatical about my diet. I'll cheat for a couple days and then go back on it. I'm sure I'm depriving myself of some important nutrients by cutting out the fruits and veggies but I can't say i care all that much. Besides. I feel like I was on the what to eat when you can't eat anything diet for like a year to stabilize, and there were no fruits or veggies there either, and I didn't die. What's good about this diet is that I'm finally getting more protein, which my doctor said I urgently needed since I was getting anemic (certainly not from the IBS diet, more because I just don't love meat, and because I lazily relied on rice and pasta to fill me up).
As I said, I've been remarkably stable for a while, so I think I can get away with straying from the IBS diet more than your average person. I would not recommend the no-carb diet for C'ers, for sure, since there is no IF. But if you're A with a slight tendancy to D, or if you're a fairly stable D, I don't think it's terribly harmful in the short term. Everyone is differnt, though!
