Fiber Alert!
So everyone sees all these commercials lately for fiber products. You know the ones. Activia yogurt, Fiber One cereal, all of those. Well, as disgusting as it is to admit. I have a fiber problem. Most days I don't even come close to consuming the recommended amount of fiber. Since I do all the grocery shopping and cooking, that means my fiance also isn't getting his recommended amount of fiber. So, I've been looking into some of these fiber products and trying them out. Generally I hate anything that you have to drink. Drink powders leave things grainy, and generally taste like crap. However, my mom gave me the Special K protein/fiber drink powder (pink lemonade flavor), and it isn't terrible. They tell you to mix it in a 16 oz. bottle, but I use a 32 oz., and think I would hate it in only 16 oz. I've also started taking chewable fiber supplements every day. The jury's still out on whether any of this will work, but I figure it's worth a shot, right? Maybe some day soon I'll actually start counting my fiber grams every day. Ha!
