Hi, Glenda. Sorry to read. I just need a little information.
How long have you been constipated vs. how long have you been on the plan? Before you joined, did you have a high-fiber diet? How much do you drink each day? What is your physical activity level now and before this program?I have always had constipation problems, but not as bad as now: I take a powdered fiber which worked better on my old bad diet than it does now. I have been drinking about 7 glasses (8 oz ea) per day. My past eating habits were not good; lots of sugar and homemade white bread. that’s why I am surprised to have a problem with all the 100% grains I am eating now. if you can get on my menu journal please do so and maybe you can spot something I am missing. I am very honest on the journal. I don’t exercise at all: hip pain even using 2 canes to walk with; will be seeing my dr. re: this at the end of Sept,
Hi, Glenda. It looks like the significant jump in fiber content from your food may be hard on your system. I suggest backing off a little bit, and reintroducing high-fiber foods a little at a time.
