Guest guest Posted March 13, 2004 Report Share Posted March 13, 2004 > Laurie, > > You need more fiber and more water to move things along. MORE water? I think I already drink a gallon a day!! Well, at LEAST 68 ounces! Cuz I know I have a 32 ounce and at least two 18 ounce glasses per day. That doesn't count the diet 7-up either. I thought I was getting plenty of fluids. I'm working on popcorn right now. Fiber, fiber, fiber. Seems to me more fiber would bind a person up. I mean, look at sheets...the more the thread (fiber) count, the more SOLID they are. lol Laurie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 13, 2004 Report Share Posted March 13, 2004 Hi Laurie! I have this conversation with my husband a lot. He thinks I'm crazy for taking fiber to keep from having the runs because he says when he takes it he spends hours on the commode. I keep telling him that the point of fiber isn't to bind you up or cause the runs, it's to make you REGULAR. I've just found the right amount of fiber for me to keep things on an even keel. (Except for two days ago when I was in agony and on the toilet all night. With OIL no less! That hasn't happened in months and I have NO CLUE what caused it.) Anyway, fiber works both ways. The important thing is to find the right amount that works best for you. Hugs! Tracey > I'm working on popcorn right now. > Fiber, fiber, fiber.
