I’m sorry, we have different conditions (severe UC) but I struggle this way as well. I’m doing a complete elimination diet right now to try and see what foods cause me issues and I’m eating mostly low residue and low inflammation foods. Avocado and olive oil have kind of been a lifeline for me in making sure I’m not losing too much weight on such a restrictive diet. Have you spoken to a doctor about appetite or nausea meds?

My gf (also has undiagnosed GI issues + alpha gal) also swears by avocado and olive oil, also eggs and starch. I’m limited in dairy right now but I’ve found that I can tolerate greek yogurt pretty well and that’s expanded my palette a lot.
