I am just starting on advising my daughter on these principles. She is in a dorm, her first year, so she barely has her feet on the ground, and then dealing with feeling bad has been so hard. She is very disciplined and health minded about food - but, of course, it is way harder to eat what you want to in a dorm situation than at home -- so i wondered -- if she started every meal with her soluble fiber supplements (when she couldn't get soluble fiber food) would that be an ok approach for now ?--- and also until she learns the ropes of this diet a bit better? For instance -- bars really help her to fill in and get enough to eat --- i am reading they are not always so good -- so if she had the fiber supplement first, would that work ?-- but she has also trained herself not to drink water along with a meal -- so that could be a problem.....could it be taken 20 minutes before a meal and still be effective? Sorry to have so many questions -- she is losing weight and getting weak again and we are really concerned -- to the point where i am hardly sleeping and crying alot about her......its hardest to see her suffering and also away from home for the 1st time.........
