one other thing.. there's this alkalizing Water called Kangen water.. it will help you poop. i haven't seen it mentioned on here before, but i can tell you right now that it works. it alkalizes your body, which make it harder for bad stuff (like cancer) to grow in it.

"Kangen Water is simply an easier way of stating: Alkaline, ionized, electron rich, restructured, micro clustered, active hydrogen saturated, oxidation reduced, powerful water."

http://www.thewatertruth.com/go/ << there's some info on it.

you can find places in your area that sell kangen water & it's very inexpensive. the machines that produce it are VERY expensive, but my family pays around $10/mo for unlimited gallons of kangen water.. as much as you could drink. :) you can cook with it, bathe with it, etc.

drinking it does make you go poop, though.. so anyone having problems with that, i would highly suggest seeking out somewhere that sells kangen water & buying some. the taste is different than regular tap or bottled water.. you can use it to make coffee, tea, or with crystal light or whatever. :) it'll get your bowels to move for sure lol

I got aome chia seeds, how do you use them? In hot food only?

you put them in liquid of your choice & leave them set for a while.. then drink them down.. they're slimy & grassy tasting, but i actually like them.. lol the slime is gelatinous.. like Jello.. with little tiny seeds- like poppy seeds in the middle... you can put it in a blender to help with the texture.

it's not that bad, honestly.. but my tolerance for weirdness may be higher than yours. won't know til you try it. lol

Thanks to Rootman, I have purchased and started using chia seeds in several different ways. I researched on the internet, looked up some recipes and took the plunge. Fantastic. I am not so bound up and everything has softened up. Also, I do believe my appetite is diminished. Thanks for your testimonial, Root. KI

I have started drinking what my son refers to as my poop potion. It is citracel with Miralax. I have not been constipated since mixing the two together.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
