But don't ever skimp on the soluble fiber  For me that's the one rule that's NEVER flexible.
Maybe I am not getting enough soluble fiber?? I try to snack throughout the day on soluble fiber (pretzels, corn pops, fat free saltines). How much soluble fiber should I be eating at mealtimes?
Last night I had sushi for dinner and I made a point of eating a little rice at the beginning but I didn't worry about the amount because I was having nigiri, so each piece of fish came with a little more rice. And on Monday at lunch, I had been snacking before lunch on pretzels and then I ate a roll before having my meal (shrimp louie without egg yolks or dressing -- in other words, shrimp, lettuce, and egg white rings with lemon squeezed on top). Is this not enough? I worry that if I fill up on the white rice and the bread, etc., that I will get too full to eat enough protein, veggies, etc., especially given the need to eat small meals. (If I have more than a few bites of something, I get bloated -- a decent-sized meal and that turns into button-popping uncomfortable bloating.)
