What is normal (GRAPHIC)?

I'm curious to know if anyone else is in my condition regarding what should be a normal stool. SORRY IF THIS GETS GRAPHIC! I have been on Heather's diet for roughly 3 months, take Acacia fiber twice daily (total 3tsp). I used to have D 4-5 times a day when I was diagnosed. Since following the IBS guidelines I only experience D 1-3 times a month. A normal day for me is 2 BM's. My question is this while my stool is solid it is rarely in 1 or 2 logs. It is usually a collection of soft edged pellet or french fry shapes. It tends to smear the toilet when I flush. Is this what I can expect as normal as an IBSer? Should I increase my Acacia fiber intake? Any thoughts greatly appreciated.
