I think you could probably drink more. I can't remember the exact amount we're supposed to drink, but I can go by what I do drink. In the am, I drink a pint (2 cups) with my Citrucel. Then, I have a peppermint/fennel tea with/after breakfast. Then, when I get to work I open a 24 oz water and my goal is to have that finished before I go to lunch. Come back from lunch, pop open another 24 oz - that one has to be gone before I leave work. Before dinner, I have another pint w/ Citrucel. Sooo, that right there (not counting my tea) brings me to 10 cups of water a day, plus my "miscellaneous" teas throughout the day.
So, I have problems on the weekends, because I don't give myself that goal to have water by.
I don't know if upping your water a little will help you, but it can't hurt. When you have your attacks after dinner, are they D or C attacks? I know you said you had D before, but now feel C-ish, so I was a little confused on what types you have after dinner. I was thinking if it was a C attack after dinner, maybe the water could help, but if it's D attacks I don't know - maybe bumping up your fiber supplement like Heather suggested? Or switching?
