Do not, for any reason, take three laxative pills instead of two in order "to speed things up," even if, in the past, at least 2 doses 12 hours apart were necessary to get things moving. DO NOT DO IT.

That is all, thank you.

I can't help laughing! Sorry, it's probably not at all funny for you but "entire post written in the bathroom" was just too funny! Hope you'rw better by now!

Oh my!:thumbup: Roger that. However, a mix of benefibre cherry drink powder mixed with a dose of miralax does the trick quite nicely, I must say.

Well, I weighed myself at the gym yesterday afternoon and wasn't happy with the results. I thought my...um...constipation might have something to do with it. I took the laxative and it had its desired (plus) effect. I weighed again today first thing after riding my bike to the gym. I was wearing lighter weight clothes today as well. Hmmm, I don't know if I'm making things better or just digging the hole deeper. Probably TMI.

LOL!!!

Hope you are out now.

Dehydration is a quick way to lose weight. Also a good way to get a kidney stone. Been there. Done that. Not fun. At all. (I didn't do it on purpose, and I know you didn't, I just got sloppy about drinking and didn't enough.)
