LS23, I agree with avjens that laxatives just scare the hell out of me! But you probably know that now  . I would also say to wean off them slowly while gradually increasing the acacia.
Also, you said you don't eat wheat. Do you make sure you eat enough other fiber containing carbs to help things move along? Rice (brown or 1:1 ratio), quinoa, sweet potatoes, buckwheat - these things really help me. I got more constipated when I tried a carbohydrate free diet. It was rich in veggies and fruit (OK, low carb, not totally carb free diet) but that wasn't enough for my body. I need something that has a substance, if you know what I mean.
Maybe you could give us a sample of your daily menu  .
