Constipation

[ThinLizzy]

Hi All

Sorry for TMI thread, but I now havent "been" for 3 days. Is this normal?
anything I can do to help?

 

[Gemsie26]

Yeah it's normal apparently. I don't do as often as I used to. Apparently upping the fat content of your food eases it a little bit - other than that, not sure. Maybe try some laxatives?

I suffer badly. Not sure why, i get my fibre from my mims and fat from everything else

MIMs usually work for me x

 

[ThinLizzy]

yeah I am off for some of that flax stuff today or tomorrow to get things going hopefully!!

I still use a teaspoon of flax every day.

 

[ThinLizzy]

I really need to get this flax!! I am going out in a min to get it xx

 

[Jim]

Just remember to drink loads or it binds you instead.
