Go Lean Crunch or Kashi Waffles for breakfast. Kashi frozen meal for lunch. Snack on Kashi Crunch Bars. Fiber everywhere!!!

I start my day witha high fiber breakfast and continue with lunch. It’s easy for me as I like fruit and whole grain foods. Recently exploring resistant starch.

It’s been going well with my increased daily fiber intake. I’ve been eating more raisin bran and that has been helping me reach my daily 25g fiber goal.

35 grams of fiber yesterday! Whoo hoo! Oatmeal, Kashi frozen dinner (Lemongrass Chicken), an apple, a whole grain Enlgish muffin, and a Kashi Honey Almond Flax bar. Plus random other things thrown in. I felt great yesterday, although I was constantly hungry. I’m hoping after acouple of weeks my body will get used to this new lifestyle…

I started watching my fiber intake last week (Dr recommended) and noticed that I only averaged about 8-11 g/day. Egads! I’ve started tracking my fiber and have been doing a good job with increasing my intake. Tracking has made me more aware of what I’m eating, when. I’m a Type II Diabetic, and would like to lose about 20 LBS by the end of June.

I found a great way to eat fiber is with snack bars. I work part-time covering lunch hours for two people which means I don’t get to eat lunch until 2:30. To keep me going, I eat a healthy snack bar (Kashi being one of several brands I eat) and it keeps me going until I can get home and have a healthy lunch. My bar this morning had 9g of fiber.

Add the psyllium husk fiber to your diet. I take it right before bed, allows the body to absorb it over night. I tried taking it in the morning but it caused to much bloating, gas and discomfort. I have none of that taking it at night. I have been using this routine for almost 2 years now and it works great.

diets with high in fiber is good for people with diabetes and also if you don’t like eating plain fiber ceral you mix with another grain ceral.

Forgot to mention….with diverticulitis, you can’t have nuts or seeds!!

I have recently been diagosed with diverticulitis. I am desperately seeking information on what to eat to avoid pain and multiple trips to the bathroom! I know I need to incorporate more fiber in my diet. Anybody have any tips?

Thanks!

I tend to like high fiber foods, so if I eat right, I should get my daily requirement. The problem is eating right! For day 1 (today) I started out with a bowl of oatmeal with blueberries and flax seed(4g), then mid-morning I had two slices of Dave’s Killer Bread (10g) (if you haven’t tried his bread, it is great – organic, high in fiber and delicious). For lunch I had two whole wheat pita sandwiches (6g). For dinner I had some whole wheat spaghetti and broccoli/cauliflower (7g) and then 2 Kashi dark chocalate oatmeal cookies (6g). 33g total, and I was satisfied throughout the day.

i am going to eat more fruit because they have fiber

I started a daily fiber supplement and eat allot of vegetables. I’m hoping to loose 10Lb. I’m sure i will find some kashi foods so i don’t need the supplements.

I think a perfect snack is the Kashi nuggets mixed with Silk yogurt. That is almost 17 grams of fiber right there. With my hectic schedule sometimes this snack becomes the only thing I get for lunch.
Breakfast is always a bowl of either Kaxhi vive or Kashi nuggets. It is simple and keeps me from having the hunger pains I used to get from just grabbing some instant oatmeal I had bought for the kids.
I would have to say the light Silk Chocolate milk and Kashi nuggets have to be the perfect breakfast when that I need chocolate craving kicks in. Sometimes I add a few strawberries and it’s an incredible snack or breakfast that seems to keep you satisfied for an amazingly long time.

I was tested diabetes 4years back ,so followed strict diet to avoid insuline intake , untill I discovered Manna Fibre an 85% soluble dietary fibre , natural and Organic from Acacia Senegal trees found in forests of Darfur, Kordofan, Blue Nile and Upper Nile states of Sudan , this fruit sized reduced to fine white powder easily dissolve in water and mix well with any food or drink without changing its texture , taste or color , it mix well with cold or hot water , you can take 50g each day without having any side effect or bloot or smelly gas ,cost effective , suits fast life style , healthifize all junk food , without any need to take it gradually , I am leading a healthy life without any side effects from my diabetes and had no longer any IBS or constipation or even diahrrea I strongly recommend all Kashi folks to try it , it can be sent from Malysia or Sudan direct as stand alone or in Kashi formulated nature products or with coffee or tea or just water , all other natural fibers are not Organic , like Manna Fibre which is Kosher certified too Manna

I joined this community, even though I doubt I’ll find Kashi products where I live (from Australia).

Anyways, if you Nashi/Asian pears have on average 10 grams fiber per pear.

If you’re eating lots of fiber, remember to drink enough water!
I’m always conscious of how much fiber I eat, due to IBS.
I try and get 5-8 grams in each meal and the two snacks I eat everyday.
If I can’t meet my needs, I’ll chew fiber tablets of use the powder type in water.

I’ve been regularly accepting this daily challenge since the first of this year, and I have found it to NOT to be at all difficult! I absolutely love the different vareties of Fiber One cereal, and the original is my favorite for a BIG dose of fiber. It is great topped with yogurt and eaten as a snack. I regularly interchange these with Kashi cereals, especially the Cinnamon Harvest and GoLean Crunch. These are ALWAYS on my shopping list. My teens love these cereals for breakfast and also for snacks, eating them with yogurt and/or fruit occasionally. I also love stir-fry veggies for an afternoon snack or with a meal. I get my daily requirement of fiber w/o even trying!

I know that I will be getting my fiber in daily because I have been eating Kashi products and I love them!!! Love Kashi products!!!
