Took an average of my fiber intake for the past week and it is 12g. . . recommended amount for women per day is at least 25. Need to find ways to increase fiber. More veggies? Fruit? I'll look at those options first!

I've been watching my fiber too because I have a bad stomach. I've been eating a lot more fruit and veggies and my fiber has been a lot better. Mighty Full gave a lot of good options. Also good are pears and apples, whole grain foods, broccoli, etc. I've been making my lunches with a serving of veggies every day and taking a serving of baby carrots, and I try to have at least a fruit every day and I'm getting about 23 or 24 grams of fiber. So get those fruits and veggies in and that will help. If you have enough calories at the end of the day and you're hungry eat a fiber one bar, cookie, or brownie and that will bump up the fiber too.

I have been using Benefiber - dissolves completely in water. I hate the thick goopy stuff so I like this one. I can't really tell when I put it in my coffee that it is even there.
