*Poll* Regularity issues anyone?

I have been having big problems with that lately... Maybe that's why I don't lose any weight...I'm just stuffed up!

When I have the problem, which is often, I just pop a very mild laxitive (Ducalox - just 1 pill) every 3rd day or so. Nothing else seems to work for me.

oh my, you are all so polite. I am a nurse, we are not so polite when it comes to talk about pooping. I remember when I was in nursing school and found out what an enema was - I am surprised I didn't quit school that day! I have issues also but 13 days - that is way too long! I read some research on breast cancer and it was said that having regular bowel movements gives you some protection due to the fact that all of the additives and preservatives in food don't have as much time to leech out into your body and cause problems. There is a good reason to get your fiber in.
