Are you getting enough IF in your diet, are you taking a SFS, are you drinking enough water, and are you exercising?

I do eat SF, usually in the form of fruit in my porridge such as raisins, blueberries, raspberries, peach slices, chopped nuts, linseeds etc (though not all at once!) and I also mix ground flax powder into it. For dinner I will usually mix peas or sweetcorn into rice or have other well cooked veggies. I also eat the skins on baked potatoes...I think this counts as IF?
I take Acacia fibre every morning in a glass of warm water before breakfast and I have started taking it at night in my soy or rice milk hot chocolate before bed.
I exercise fairly regularly (running about 5K once or twice a week) and I do yoga classes on Wednesdays, but I tend to practice yoga moves every day to try and relieve my bloating. I also have a fairly active job working in a cafe where I am constantly walking around.
Drinking enough water is definately a problem for me and I know I don't have enough during the day. I find it really difficult to get the daily recommended amount because fluid really bloats me out and makes me feel sluggish.

Lisa Marie, Natural Calm isn't available to buy in the UK but I have ordered MagAsorb (Magnesium Citrate) which Rio recommended.

Kamikat, I'm not lactose intollerant but if I am going to binge eat then it will usually be on dairy foods which are high in fat like yoghurt and milk chocolate. I long for the time when I will have regular BM's. It's now been 5 days...help
