Back On Track Together
Protein powder and constipation.. I know.. TMI
I have started getting back to the drawing board with eatting like I did way back when I first started out. I felt better sorta detoxing the body. I have gradually added about 30 lbs back on and hate the feeling of failure and feeling this way. How can I use the protein powders and stay bathroom worthy? I am drinking ALOT of water in between.

250lbs gone! 410/160... Life's sweet! 

I lot us use Miralax and magnesium daily. And fiber, and fat.. fat makes things slide.. very low fat - high proteins - and my poor body hates me...

I use a stool softener but don't know if that will be enough. I remember so well the constipation feeling... I don't want to be hospitalized like I was years ago for a bowel obstruction. So will use whatever it takes to be "clean whistled" lol.. I have come to far to just go all willy nilly with my eatting... So thanks to this website I will come back crawling lol...

I buy generic Miralx and use that in my coffee.
even if you are "going" every day - you still may be constipated - (I am talking from experiance). I deal with that and I learn that once in a while I try to take more Miralax - to clean myself up. If I am backed up - it may take 2-3 days before things are "really moving", but if I am "current" - one extra dosage does the trick.
I also take app 800 mg of mag oxide in evening. (capsules)

I will so go buy some generic miralax. I am starting over watching ever lil thing that goes in this country girls pie whole lol... I used to LIVE on this website when I first started out and BMI over 50 was my hangout of choice. Met some nice people along the way that had been there for all my ups and downs. I guess you just feel like you can conquer anything sometimes on your own. People like yall
