The last times I've been on CD I've had quite a problem with constipation, I'm starting again at the end of the week and would like to avoid this happening again.

Any tips????

Thanks Gemx

Hi Ricepop

I used to put the Fibre89 in my soups everyday and also glugging the water helps too. Some people swear by psyllium husks.

Thanks, having been to my CDC today I have bought some of the fibre stuff, so I'll be using that

I'm not on your diet, but I used fibre poweder yesterday and i cn honestly say its good stuff. you just add it to a drink or whatever.
i had to take a laxative the other week and it didnt really work, but this soluble fibre which you cn use everyday and doesnt cause any upsets is magnificent.

I have found that nothing will make me go, and I was an everyday girl before!!

So I have to resort to the dulcolax I'm afraid, nothing else is strong enough.

Everyone is so completely different, its worth trying the fibre and psyllium husks to see how your body reacts.

Good luck. That sounds so wrong!!

I'm now taking senna DAILY.... first 2 weeks of the diet, constant dialeeeeeeeeeeer, then nothing then dialeeeeeeeeeeer again, now unless I take laxatives (not excessively) I dont go for a bloddy week - which is most uncomfortable!

bowels - not nice. I found that the fibre 69 gives me tornado belly that everyone can hear! Nettle tea is also supposed to help!

dont forget when youre not putting as much in there is less to come out so its only natural that you poop less. my mum was a 3 times a day gal, now she's lucky if she goes every 2 days and its freaked her out.
i think its called fibresure i'm taking - i got a trial pack from asda.
