So what are you gals doing about fiber intake?  I think Donna mentioned a supplement at one time.  I'm too lazy to go hunt for the post so I'm just asking.  Very low carb seems to translate to very low fiber.  Does it make me sound really old to be talking about fiber? 

[umpa]

No I agree A supplement is a good idea. Me I eat my veggies and bran bread

Hi Andrea!

I don't care for the powdered fiber supplements.
So I take 3 Metamucil capsules, twice a day.

Costco sells 300 capsule bottles for about $20.

Although I eat my greens and get quite a bit of fiber from GGs and such,
supplementation insures no traffic jams... And so far, so good!

Andrea, I usually have flax meal in something, but usually every-other-day! The cornbread that you see on my menus is made from flax meal, so is the bread and the pancake!! I do get in as much as I can so I don't have what Tony calls a traffic jam!! (I like that, btw!!)
