Ok so im at work, where can i get prunes from which are openable without a tin opener? Do they even come in a tin? Ive got tesco express, M&S and co-op near me

 

[Mel2]

Tesco should sell bags of them.
Pots of Activia a fat free are buy 1 get 1 free in Tesco at the moment too!!

 

[pesty]

Ok so im back from tesco armed with special purchase 8 pack of fat free activia, dried prunes, a pack of seedless red grapes and some beetroot!!

Hopefully i will be able to go after all this!!

I have a question though, there are only semi dried prunes in our SW books at 0.5 syns each but mine just say juicy dried prunes ready to eat, are they the same????

Thanks for all your help guys, i really apprechiate it

[kissme]

[kissme]

did ya like you poo-poo prunes?

 

[princesss01]

I was told at group when someone had the same problem to put an orange in the microwave for 1 minute and then eat, apparantly it does the trick. Not tried it though so it'll be trial and error! Good luck!

 

[jeffreysdriver]

Rhubarb!! It does the trick nicely (stewed with a wee bit sweetener). Nom nom nom.

 

[pesty]

[pamella]

if you are someone who has to take the fibre gels,do they have a syn content??

 

[kissme]

cant find them but i wouldnt of thought so

 

[kissme]

I haveto take them as i have an inflammed colon and need to take the mebereverin version lol

 

[pamella]

thanx-the only reasson i asked is because somewhere in my brain i could have thought that when i used to attend class i overheard the consultant telling someone to remember to syn them

 

[charliebecca]

u can buy soluble fibre and it doesnt taste of anything and disolves into water. i just use that

 

[hayleyw]

fab suggestions so far! Can i just say that adding loads of fibre very quickly to your diet won't help - you need to slowly introduce it and keep drinking loads of water. Too much fibre than your body is used too will clog things up just as much as not eating enough so you need to drink more water to keep it 'soft' and moving!

I used to have this problem and was only going twice a week but since i've upped my water intake to 4l a day i go every day without fail. I eat lots of fruit and veg, some dried fruit, wholemeal pasta/rice/bread and nothing special....... i find activia gave me really bad tummy pains and didnt help get things moving at all, in fact it made me worse!

I guess everyone is different and you need to find what works for you but any drastic chang to your diet should be done slowly to be 'productive'! x x
