Well - how about protein shakes, lowfat protein sources, and the rest you will have to read labels to avoid fiber. Your biggest challenge will be to find foods that don't contain a lot of sugar but are low in fiber.

Have you looked to see if there is a website or organization that specificaly deals with people with problems similar to yours?
