How much fiber are YOU eating a day?

[BeerMakesMuscle]

I eat about 3k cals a day with only 35g a fiber in there. Think I should try to up it a little or am i doing alright? Reason I'm asking is I feel like people on here are eating way more fiber.

[lauhpurush]

I don't count my fiber but if I'm getting enough whole foods,veggies and fruits in my diet daily and my bowel movement ( dumps the other day ) is fine , I don't worry about the fiber.

I consumed an avg of 66g fiber this past week (some days as high as 75g), so I am having the opposite worries lol. It might be beneficial to up your fibrous veggie intake to get above forty or so grams

[BeerMakesMuscle]

I eat at least a cup of oats, 1 serving of veggies, and prob 2 of fruit a day and the rest of the carbs are diff every day. I only have one bowel movement a day so I'm thinking I need to change something.

Probably too much fiber....I don't calculate it but prob around 45-50grams easily.....Def. have to take at least one dump per day.

I don't track fiber but I randomly add it up for a day.40-80g/day.

At 70+ grams a day I still only have one bowel movement a day, although its always ~20mins after I wake up and one solid (sry if too much info)

whaaat?

[ErickStevens]

25 to 40g.

[x2lvlarcher]

I would estimate my fiber content to be around 50 to 80 grams a day.
Depending on how much cocoa powder I feel like mowing down on.

[Ashlei]

30-45g for me. I used to eat more but got too bloated.

[Cumulonimbus]

[peteyboy1015]

Good luck with your brick laying goals in the next 24 hours

[Bmarchio]

25-35g
never measure it. easily get a rough idea based off oats/veggies, etc...

[csfb36]

30-45

[Lvisaa2]

I had 56g today in 2200 calories. I'd say this was around average.

[joshrider]

25-30g a day is sufficient for most people.

I get something around that amount regularly.

[Ghosting]

Like 100g today lololol

Poor toilet bowl.

[AdamWW]

I get about 50

[oscarlf]

not enough, my poop doesn't float feels bad man

[tagun]

I was eating around 150 grams for about 6 months and ****ed up my GI tract (srs). Now I can't eat more than 10 grams (srs again) a day without my GI getting all inflamed. I hope to get it at least somewhat fixed in the next two months as I have 3 different doctor's appointments (gastroscopy, ultrasound etc.)

Moral of the story: don't try to be all extremist with fiber as it just may **** up your life (srs for the last time).

[cut4dayz]

wow...i hardly hit 25g...

[MarkVI]

4 cups of oats per day + fruit and veggies I get around 65grams minimum on a 4.3-4.5kcal diet.

It's not how much total fiber that could cause bowel discomfort or damage like the guy posted above me, it's % of calories/bulk of food that matters...150 grams? wtf. how many calories?

[MooseLaddin]

don't keep track but guessing I'd say around 40-45 tops at 45.

[Taz80]

Need to watch fiber intake; too much can cause blockage (it feels like someone shoved a cork up your ass) and rivaling Saudi Arabia in gas production .. however, too little; feels like you're ****ting sandpaper in the loo.

[adamrochester]

fibre ftw 40-75g per day for me
