Liquid phase-Metamucil vs Benefiber



Recommended Posts

Has anyone taken Benefiber during the liquid stage to help with hunger? If so, did it make your stomach very bloated? What are you guys doing during the liquid phase to satisfy your hunger? I guess this is the second craving I need help with :mellow:, see previous post, LOL.

Thanks for the help!

I take Benefiber every day, not really to help with hunger, but to keep me regular. I heard it's better to take than Metamucil for band patients, because it doesn't bulk up and get thick and won't stretch your pouch.

You can put Benefiber in anything (I put it in my Decaf coffee) and you won't taste it.

Some of the Protein Shakes have added Benefiber (Boost and Carnation Instant Breakfast, for example). I use Benefiber, now that I'm on a regular diet, because I can't get nearly the amount of Fiber that is recommended.
