I am a relative newbie to the board. I have a lot of weight to lose. When I first started the IBS diet, it helped my symptoms and I lost some weight. But now I am gaining again since I found the pumpkin and other sugar-loaded breads in the recipe book. It is so hard not to eat those because I am so limited. I can not use my usual "dieting" foods-- fruits, vegetables, Diet Coke and Crystal Light. I need a whole new way to eat, but can only tolerate French bread, chicken, fish, pasta, rice, rice cakes and the recipe breads, along with water. I can not have any lactose or soy, and only sometimes rice milk products. Being so limited in choices draws me to the pumpkin and French breads too many times during the day, which pumps up the weight, but I feel so deprived I fall back on them every time. How do you all do it without the fruits and vegetables, which I really can't tolerate most of, even cooked? I appreciate so much any tips or advice you could offer me to slim down now that my IBS is under control. Dawn
