Hi Bethany,
Yes, I have bloating all the time -- and I was blaming the fiber too. But I just recently noticed that the bloating seems to be worse for me when I eat something, and it doesn't matter what -- the bloat has everything to do with my tummy trying to digest the food. Ditto with the gas.
Lately, I've been getting a lot more exercise, and that really seems to get rid of the bloating, believe it or not. I don't understand why, but it is working -- maybe because it's burning off the food that causes the bloat, I don't know....
I wouldn't stop the fiber if I were you. In fact, I'd try to slowwwwly increase it. You really need that fiber.
