Fibre = pooping, right? So even though I was already getting at least 25 grams of fibre a day, I upped it to 35 to 40 grams. I meal prepped extra veggies to eat with my meals, added flaxseed to my salads, and ate more raspberries and blackberries. I tried this for a week and actually felt more bloated, but it didn't help me go.
