Brityn,

I have struggled with IBS-C as well. We all have to find the balance of SF and IF in our diets. For me, I have to have a lot of IF. I also have to eat whole wheat and/or whole grains with fruits and veggies EVERY day. It's really important for people who are constipation prone as the IF pushes everything through. As long as my diet consists of mostly IF with some SF to cushion it, I do pretty good. I also drink about 80-100 oz. of water a day.....it's needed to push that fiber along. I have a liter bottle of water right next to my bed and drink almost the entire bottle even before getting out of bed. When I first started following the diet guidelines and the majority of fiber was SF I could never get a decent BM. It really takes time and lot of experimenting of what works. Even then, some days are just off. Best of luck.
