Any suggestions on low residue/low fiber foods?

The doctor (or rather the nurse, since I still have never met the doctor) says I still have to stay on low residue food. I can slowly add foods in. They should have soluble fiber, not insoluble.

Does anybody have some ideas?

I have been living on rice, bananas, stewed chicken, poached cod, cooked to death carrots, canned greenbeans, white bread (blech), mashed potatoes, Rice Krispies with rice milk, Cream of Wheat and apple sauce. Oh and an exciting vanilla wafer every now and then. I got an acorn squash that I am going to try tonight.

Those all sound DELICIOUS! Especially avocados!

Any chance I might be able to have chocolate, coffee or wine?

French toast, chex cereal, white flour muffins you made(so know whats In it) oatmeal muffins (you make) apple crisp (apples, oatmeal, butter brown sugar cooked to death so apples are soft and no peel), ground beef things like shepherds pie, spinach, roasted plain meats like chicken, turkey.

All meat, fish and eggs fall under low fiber and all by-products like chicken broth, meat broth, soufflés. BACON!

For veggies my gut tolerated well cooked carrots, spinach, green beans, summer squash types (yellow and zucchini) and white potatoes in all versions (not yams or sweet potatoes). I'd be a little careful of acorn squash and all winter squashes as they have more fiber.

Of course there are soooo many desserts with little fiber, generally in the dairy family: ice cream, cheesecake, chocolate anything. But perhaps you are steering clear of dairy since I see rice milk in your post. If dairy is not a problem then there are a lot of cheeses to eat and use creatively.

I also eliminated white bread and all gluten foods which was beneficial for my gut. Most fruit was no-go for me (or rather go-go lol).

Low fiber is not a big problem IMO. More problems (but not impossible) when you need dairy-free, gluten-free plus low-fiber. There are some good cookbooks that offer recipes for people with multiple intolerances.

on days where i'm constipated or flaring badly, i do ZERO fiber.

meat, fish, cheese, yogurt, kefir, whey protein, bone broth, eggs, gelatin, mayonnaise, coconut oil, butter. this works well for me because the less fiber that goes in, the less poop i create.

I would suggest eating what the banana girl listed >

not only less fiber, but no junk and for most, more healing -

Be careful with avocado its loaded with fiber! I had it during a flare and it was bad news

Not to start anything,..but in the hospital I was not allowed oatmeal on a low reside diet...apparently too much fiber per serving! I didn't look, mostly because I was so sick I didn't care- but may be something to explore!

It's probably easier to just eliminate all obvious high fibre, high residue foods, like fibrous vegetables, wheat fibre, corn, unrefined grains, vegetable skins, etc. Pretty much everything else, and most refined foods are low residue and low fibre. Although bananas have no visible fibre, they actually have quite a lot of soluble fibre.
