Thanks for replying. Are nectarines safe since it seems plums and peaches aren't? I'm still trying to find my way around this board. Is there a list of what IF are safe for constipation? In Heather's book it seems more for IBS-D. I'll try the berry adding for lunch, thank. Nope haven't tried the fiber yet, scared to death since in the past I've had really bad experiences with fiber, even though I know hers is very safe, I don't think I'm eating enough for it to work. I'd like to add it when I can tolerate a small amount of IF. I agree with you, I do believe bananas are very constipating for me, hard habit to break, but I'll try to find something to switch too. Was everyone as overwhelmed as me in the beginning? I'm not even sure what are IF and the difference between SF foods so I'll go look at her book again. I'll also see if I can find any posts on here for it. Thanks!
