Like if you had brown rice for dinner, what would you eat beforehand to make it easier to digest the IF rice and the IF veggies you might add?
Can you do apple peels too?
And what is an example of a normal breakfast for you? Would you mind listing some examlple meals?
Do you take the benefiber before meals? I suppose that would be your SF base if you did. Benefiber did not agree with me.

Yes, soemtimes my SF is indeed Benefiber but I also try carrots, mushrooms, beets, rice crackers, saltine or two before an IF.
As for breakfast, I am fine with oatmeal. I also have and love Eizekel bread, and will often have a few slices of mango or half a banana before my toasted bread!
Does that help?!

Those mushrooms really add "bulk" or length or something to the bm's! I buy them in bulk, now, wholesale from a farm and assorted varieties. They're something about those fungi that agree with me. It's embarrassing how many mushrooms I eat and how much I love 'shrooms. They're also high in selenium.

I get them by the box, now, from a farm nearby. They really do clean you out and I eat them like candy, too. Yes, I think it is the bulk factor. I skip the broccoli, though. Spinach (cooked and pureed)--yum, and no gassiness for me. I eat it everyday. Maybe it's the earthiness about the mushrooms--they make me want to plant my solid poo in the toilet. They're really, uh, "grounding." Yes, I think that's the word for it. This sounds bizzarre, I know. They also give my poos some form, shape.

Hi Kate!
HAHA! You have me cracking up, as you are analyzing the form of the mushroom poos! I wonder if they are contributing for me; it is really hard to pinpoint one food for me, as I do try to have lots of IF. But, like you, I have a lot of mushies. I do love spinach, too! Mushrooms are loaded with potassium, too, which is another reason to love them! haha!
