You're very welcome!! As I've mentioned before, it's taken me almost a year to get where I am, and I have everyone on this board (in addition to Heather) to thank for that!!
Just to be clear, acacia is a SOLUBLE fiber (SF) supplement. I, too, used to get really bad gas and bloating from other fiber supplements, but the acacia has worked wonders! As you increase the amount of acacia you use daily, you'll be able to decrease the amount of SF that you get from food, which will allow you to increase your IF without increasing calories. And yes, I drink TONS of water. It's really the only liquid I drink all day, other than rice milk. Good luck!! And I hope you find the Natural Calm. I tried to skip it last night, but discovered that I still need that 1 teaspoon every night in order to "go" first thing in the morning!!
Just curious: did you try the artichoke hummus yet?? Tomorrow I'll be finishing off a batch of the spiced sweet roasted red pepper hummus. And if you like things a little spicy, I find adding a dash of cayenne to the artichoke hummus is a perfect touch!!
