Chronic Diarrhea

Hello, is any one else here on a low residue/low fiber diet due to chronic diarrhea. I had my first re-sectioning surgery for my Crohn's disease back in Sept. 2012 and have had chronic diarrhea ever since. It has mystified the doctors, who have diagnosed it as bile salts diarrhea. The funny thing is that my CD is in complete remission. So now I am left to battle this debilitating and often humiliating "side effect". I am wondering how others do it because I am only eating 1000 calories a day on this diet and on my 5'9 frame, at 110 lbs I totally look anorexic and hate it. The dietician put me on 40 grams of fat or less a day and 10 grams of fiber a day.
