    More fibre in your diet can take a while to adjust to. The best remedy is to drink lots of water to um. . .move things along.

    Also a lot of "diet"products (like some artificial sweeteners) can contribute to this. :flowerforyou:

    Not initially but as I've progressed there have been some days more than others depending on what I've eaten and the amount of water I have/haven't had. I'm trying to figure out the what and why reasons for mine as I progress on my way ahead but I can't tell you one way or another why even for me.

    My poor boyfriend has been assaulted at night by my diet. I eat a lot of carrots and we believe the carrots plus all the other fiber has caused my farts of mass destruction.

    Sorry, I keep it real. :blushing:

    Sugar alcohol is in alot of diety foods and it is a KILLER. My mom was on a sugar free jelly belly kick for awhile and she farted constantly and had stomache aches..lol I guess u know what to eat next time the hubby or boyfriend pulls the covers over your head and lets one rip!

    It is the beans for me. Lima, lentils, or whatever I get from the bulk bins.
    I cook a pot each week, and fridge them in little covered pyrex bowls.
    At least one cup every day.

    Great for fiber and protein, but don't forget the Beano.
