anybody have trouble with...
| Thu, 07-21-2005 - 12:35pm |
Hi All! This is my fourth day on the diet and I'm feeling pretty good. Its really easy. This is kind of embarassing but does anyone else have a little trouble going to the bathroom? I think it might be all the dairy? Any tips? Im drinking psyllium in the morning, maybe I just have to give my body time to figure it all out....

LOL - to me that was the worst part about P1 - I had the same problem. When I went to P2 I added fruit/breads gradually and everything went back to normal.
Hang on - just 7 more days.

I actually had the opposite problem, since I started!!! I have been eating tons of veggies, especially salads, and prior to starting SBD my diet had been very veggie-poor lately.
Increasing water intake may also help you, combined with the high fiber foods (the veggies, and fruits). If you have a lot of fiber, but not enough water, you tend to get constipation.

Meg,
Try taking the Metamucil/psyllium 15 minutes before each meal.
