Gee thanks Doreen T and Potatofree! I am definitely going to look for that ground psyllium husk powder...is there a way to make it taste good??? The carbs in the metamucil won't kill me I don't think, as I am low on carbs today anyways....so including the metamucil that would put me at about 13 carbs for the day...thinking of eating some more salad as a snack to pick up a few more carbs before bedtime...more fiber ya know! Thanks again for the tips!
