I would try getting most IF from veggies that don't cause too much gas. Also another thing to consider is when you are eating more of the gas-producing foods, which seems to be with your dinner. I find if I have more veggies with lunch I do better with gas/bloat in the evenings then pilling it all on at dinner time.

Gas/bloating is in my opinion one of the hardest things to get rid of. I used to only get gas and bloating when I ate trigger foods. When I started on this diet I ate mostly SF, had no gas and great BMs, but it didn't seem like a healthy diet to continue on forever. Now trying to incorporate more IF is actually helping my BMs even more, but I have also had to deal with gas/bloating. I think this will just take more time to deal with it. I do think that your stomach has to get used to the extra fiber, so try to eat similarily most days and give it time, be patient.

As for the Acacia, I would keep it constant even if you are eating more SF one day than another. Don't worry too much about amounts of fiber in total, just try to get the ratio of SF/IF that works for you. I also suggest trying to eat similar foods each day (don't vary too much day-to-day in the veggies you are eating) so that you can maybe pinpoint what is causing the gas more.
