peas
dried fruit
whole grain bread
wheat bread
oatmeal
bran cereal
bran muffin
potatoes
brown rice


Remember most of the fibre and nutrients are close to the outter layer of skin such as potatoes, apples and brown rice!. Try to include the skin on!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Here's a sample diet - and when you increase your fiber be sure to drink lots of water too - 6-8 glasses a day!.

breakfast:
1/2 c Fiber One cereal (14 g fiber)
5-6 dates (3 g fiber)

or
2 scrambled eggs with a teaspoon of Fiber Sure mixed in (5 g)
2 slices whole grain bread (look for the kind that has 4 g fiber in each slice -) (8g)
5-6 dates (3 g)

lunch
1/2 c hummus in whole grain pita (about 8 g)
Waldorf Salad with walnuts, raisins, apples (about 5 g)
even better - add cabbage to the salad which adds fiber

OR
tossed green salad with garbonzo beans, walnuts, apples, celery (4-8g)
peanut butter sandwich made with high fiber whole grain bread - check your peanut butter and bread for high fiber brands - (11-13 g)

Dinner
baked chicken breast
baked sweet potatoe (3 g)
brocoli (3 g)
for dessert try a baked apple with walnuts and raisins (about 5g)Www@FoodAQ@Com

I'll stick with the tastier foods:

Raisin Bran
Oatmeal - Get the flavored packets, they taste better
Beans - Get the canned kind with flavoring
Apples - Mainly the skin
Almonds
Grapefruit

These are some basics to get the 'job' done!.

EDIT: I forgot to mention a can of sauerkraut will blow you out like a bazooka!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
