Turns out I wasn't getting enough fiber to compensate for the extra protein I was eating so I was retaining quite a bit of waste weight. Started taking plain psyllium yesterday and well, you see the results. When I passed it, my gut didn't have that "tight" feeling anymore and I feel like I have a bit more energy.
On the flip side, plain psyllium doesn't taste great and I have to muscle through it unless I put it in a smoothie. Anyone have suggestions for a fiber supplement that doesn't have a lot of sugar, tastes good (or is tasteless) and if possible, has probiotics? It doesn't have to be psyllium either. Thanks for all the love guys!

@ACBelle yea there are a lot of markets where I can still get fresh fruit and veg. Not to mention the regular old grocery stores. I'm not hurting for the fresh stuff thank God :-D

@rickstewart1983 yeah you did! I just didn't realize there was so much of it in there HAHAHA. I've been trying to keep my fiber intake high more consistently now so when I do go, it's not as much so the scale isn't moving as fast. It's all good though. Lots of NSV's: clothes are looser, face looks smaller, seeing more definition in abs. My wife and family are really the ones seeing the changes. I see some but not as much. My sister told me I'm looking buff, which is something I don't think I've ever been told in my life so that's always a good thing lol
