Hi!

I'm a C too - these are the things that have helped me:
- drinking tons of water (you probably do that already since you're an athlete! )
- taking a fiber supplement (I take Acacia)
- keeping a food diary so I can see what may be helping / making me worse
- eating lots of soluble fiber like white rice, bananas, white bread, oat bran cereal (even though it felt counter-intuitive initially!) and the other diet changes that Heather suggests
- trying to manage my stress
- drinking lots of peppermint and fennel tea
- taking peppermint caps on occasion

Hope that helps!

Ana
