Quote: About a week or so (before I found this info) I decided to eat lots of salads and only whole wheat bread. LOTS of fiber is what I was thinking! I didn't know the 2 kinds of fiber! I was in the worst pain ever I could hardly walk.
Yes, I was doing the exact same thing. I was just like: ok, I have constipation, therefore I need LOTS of fiber. I way overdid the whole wheat bread and vegetables to disastrous results.
I'm having trouble figuring out which soluble fiber foods to eat, though, since so many brands of white rice seem to have no or almost no dietary fiber listed. I saw a post by Heather earlier saying that fiber labels are confusing because they list less than one gram as nothing at all, but I'm still confused. How could I possibly get all my daily RDA of fiber from these foods? Maybe I'll put a separate post about this...

I also overdid insoluble fiber... also, confused by nutrition labels
