Whatcha eating today VSGers? Friday...
L: scoop and half choc.pro shake w/ Metamucil made w/ water
D: either shake again or yogurt or more egg salad
As I've stated (whined)before im in a stall almost 2 weeks...
I haven't pooped in about a week (or more)( reason for the Metamucil)
My ??? Is..am I eating enough? Is my body in starvation mode..
I get my protein, and about 40-50 oz of water a day, trying to up the water
But it's difficult...any suggestions would be greatly appreciated...
Thanks

I need more info to answer are you eating enough??? How far out are you? Are you tracking? Based on the shakes I'm guessing about 60g of protein with is good. Depending on how far out you are determines MY response to the question.
As far as not pooping...collace is a stool softener (if I remember correctly). Metamucil is a fiber additive. Both EVENTUALLY make you go poop. Milk of Magnesia WILL make you go. Again how far out are you?
A stall isn't 2 weeks. Your body undergoes changes. A true stall is more then a month (all of this is to ME).
