Blockage.... help before I burst!!

[catb1979]

Hi Guys,

Sorry to lower the tone, but any ideas on how to get myself "moving"? I know I've been lax on the water, so will drown myself in that today. Any other allowed remedies as I'm pretty sure I'm going to burst if my tum gets any bigger - I look pregnant!! :sigh:

slimate tea bags from holland and barret.. u also get a laxitea..
herbal, effective and nice to drink.

You could try Aloe Vera tablets, you can buy them at Boots or Holland & Barrett.

add some wheat bran into your diet - 1 tbsp is ok with your oatbran. get some senokot or dulcolax or some psyllium husks (tablet or powder) these are allowed.
I had the same problem too as does Joanne (dulcolax queen)
How are you doing your PV days?

 

[dukanette]

I'm take a senacot on my protein days to keep things moving along - and lots of water!

I've been trying all sorts... (not the liquorice variety

Ice cold glass of water before eating or drinking anything else; wheatbran every day (after attack); a gentle homeopathic remedy... and then, when all else fails, I have to reach for the Dulcolax!

Are you in Cruise phase, alternating PP and PV?

Hopefully youre all sorted now, but mint tea works quickly, from bags or fresh leaves.

I wish...!!! (not for me it doesn't!)

 

[LVLLM]

nope mint doesnt work for me either. Must say I havent had a problem this weekend - more like the other way round! thts wine for you lol

 

[Maintainer]

(hey twin - even our intestines are in tune! haaaaaa!)

 

[LVLLM]

[Maintainer]

(but did you have a big grin of delight on your face... just imagining all the weight you might be losing?!!).

Oh! I've just realised I'd have gained even more UNJUSTLY had I not that issue!!

Did you gain Vicky? I expect this heat and GALLONS of H2O I'm drinking don't help! And last night, in a traffic jam crawling along for the last 15 miles - 1 hour that took - I didn't dare drink, so drank a LOAD when I got home late

 

[LVLLM]

no havent gained am same as friday. although that prob dehydration from the wine

omg just had mint green tea and yet again it has made me feel sick and dizzy wonder if its the caffiene???

 

[Maintainer]

I didn't think mint green tea had any caffeine in it? DUH oh you mean lack of caffeine?

 

[LVLLM]

NO green tea does have caffiene in

As they say in France, je me coucherai moins bête ce soir (I'll go to bed less stupid tonight!)

I really didn't know!

 

[LVLLM]

LOL I like that saying.
