Looking for things with Fiber I can easily fit that doesn't have a lot of carbs
I've been having big time trouble with my bowels lately. I'm trying to increase my fiber to 25 to 30 grams a day. I'm trying to find something that I can take that will fit in my tiny stomach that still has a lot of restriction as I'm just (7 1/2 weeks out) and still not be high carbs. Any suggestions? Even Total fiber has lots of carbs in order to get enough fiber. I still want to say under 40 carbs a day and I've missed it the last couple of days by far trying to get more fiber in.

What probiotic do you take? I have ultimate flora. It's worked preop but not working post op.

How much fiber and carbs are in them per serving?

Fiber is going to be recorded as a carb...if you want something with say..10 g of fiber, it will have at the very least, 10g of carbs - but most likely more.
You can take a fiber supplement - thats going to be the most direct way to get fiber, but at your stage, im not even sure increasing fiber will necessarily help with bowel issues. Just try taking MoM or something like that, miraliax, etc definitely a stool softener. You wont be able to get 40 g of carbs or less and 25-30 g of fiber. Thats going to be some kind of Houdini act lol.

I've tried Colace, Miralax, Milk of Magnesia none work. They barely work. :-( I've also tried my old probiotic which I used to take preop.
It's really bad. I needed an enema 2 days ago and I need another now. :-(
The only one I haven't tried is ducolax so that's next. I'd rather be able to increase fiber without carbs.

80 to 90 ounces. As much as i can fit for now. Preop I probably drank 2 gallons a day, lol But that doesn't fit.
