40s with IBS? - can't use all diet foods/healthy foods!

getmebackforlife

I was on mfp a while back and slowly was loosing weight. My Family went through a lot of issues and I quit using mfp for quite long period of time. Now things have calmed down thank the Lord above and I want to loose some weight and work on lowering my cholesterol. I am not going to run a marathon or anything like that! Just want to lower the weight some and stablize those numbers.

I have IBS. This may be TMI for some people, but if you have it then you know it isn't easy living a normal life! Plans get disrupted so easily and there is no control Many foods are off limits for folks that have this and it makes eating healthy harder. Too many fruits and veggies are a BAD idea! Even yogurt can't be used as a staple in the meal planning or snack planning.

Anyway - I'm looking for support from others in this age range that are just simlply looking to do better and be better.
Have a great day!
