I don't have much time, but I thought this was funny.
I watched a PBS special over the weekend on the Fiber 35 diet, and it seemed to dovetail closely with what WW thinks (based on how they calculate points, and encourage CORE eating). So, I thought, according to this reasoning, if I keep my points (ie. calories) the same, but increase my fiber intake, I ought to lose a few more pounds than by points alone.
So, I began eating a serving (I thought) of Fiber One for breakfast, traking my points and my fiber for each day, trying to get at least 35.
I guess I eat a pretty high fiber diet to begin with, because it hasn't been too bothersome for my tummy....but it has been a bit.
Today I discovered that a serving is only 1/2 cup, not the ONE cup I've been eating...so I was pretty much getting my entire 35 grams of fiber at breakfast....no wonder my tummy rumbled!
I have only been doing it since Monday, and was bad at the Zoo with my son yesterday...so I cannot yet report any added benefit!
