I mix my mid-day dose into a big 1L water bottle and just sip it throughout the day - MUCH easier than dealing with powders! Sometimes I also mix it with a little bit of water so it dissolves and put it in a tiny little tupperware container I have (I think it holds about 2tbsp) and then put that in a cup of tea after lunch while I'm at school.

Doesn't need to be difficult! But Minnie's given some good advice, go with what works for you!

As for knowing when you're ready... hmmm... well if you're feeling good and having no problems you can probably increase your dosage every 3-7 days (i.e. new dose... wait a few days or a week... new dose... etc.) If you're getting really gassy or bloated on it, that's a good sign that you should slow down a little. Keep increasing until a) you start to get really stable (which you might!) or b) you get to 3 tbsp a day. Everyone needs slightly different amounts of fiber.
