can having ibs give you problems when you are trying to loose weight?

Answer 1

Yes you have to watch what you eat. Big increases in fiber can cause it to act up.

Answer 2

mmm depends on what kind of diet you are going on.

Personally, when I eat a diet high in fat I get sick.. conversely, a diet for me with low fat and complex carbs is what keeps me thin and healthy as far as ibs.

My ibs flare ups are mostly a result of stress and NOT diet.

good luck

Answer 3

sure it can, any change in dietary patterns can cause a flare up. Talk to your doctor about taking Bentyl as needed.
