Sorry for the question but...
on 1/1/13 11:15 am - Peterborough, Canada
Lots of water and I put a spoonful of Metamucil in every shake that I made. I have both the opti trots and constipation.
I got the runs on day 3 of the fast. Since then, I've had a toddler-size poo once per week. I don't feel constipated, so I haven't taken any softeners. Considering I'm only consuming liquids, I think this is normal, at least my normal.

My fast has been textbook! I'm losing an average of just over 1 lb/day and other than my constant allergy-related headache and occasional grumpiness, I'm doing very well!
