I, too, get bloaty and end up in uber-casual clothes with stretchy waists. I'm tired of seeing myself in athletic gear! But really, I'm bloated mostly when I have cheated. Before I started Heather's diet, I was in low-rise jeans every single day at work to alleviate the pressure on my tummy-- I feel like constriction around the stomach makes the bloating really painful! Yuck. Anyway, being a good doobie on the diet has really cut down on the bloating, and now I can wear just about whatever I want (unless I'm PMSy, but that's a whole other story!!!  ).
I'm starting the acacia, too. Just ordered it today. Is everyone who's got bad bloating problems taking soluble fiber supplements as directed? Just wondering. I know that I had bad bloating from some other fiber supplements. Maybe try switching to another kind? I've also heard other people on the boards say that they greatly reduced the amount of their supplements and then eeeeeeked it back up slooowwwwly, and found the bloating much more controlled. I also note that sometimes I get bloaty with soy if I'm not having my soluble fiber with it...
Just random thoughts in the hopes that they help someone!
