Embarrassing Question

Ok, I don't like talking about this, but I am curious....


I used to be pretty regular at going to the bathroom #2. 


Well, I am on day three of SBD, and I haven't been at all like my old regular self.  I am worried because I am not #2'ing like I used to.  Is this normal?  Please please tell me what to do?  I don't want to clog my pipes up here or become constipated. 


Is this normal and has anyone else experienced this?

Add more veggies to your diet and take Metamucil 15 minutes before each meal.

It is easy, with this diet to get carried away with lots of eggs, lean meat, low fat cheese, etc. But do not forget to eat a lot of veggies. The current recommendation is 2 1/2 cups or more per day.

Eat beans too. They help increase the fiber in your diet.

See the messages about Metamucil too.
