Anyone notice?

  • Hey all!

    I've been doing WW for about two months and I'm really happy with it. I have noticed, though, that I'm constipated. Has anyone else had trouble with this? Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks!
  • are you eating enough food? getting enough fiber? fat? drinking 1/2 gallon water each day?
  • yes, yes, yes, and yes!

    LOL, I can't figure out what's wrong because I do get all that. Maybe it's too much fiber?
  • Fiber is the cure for constipation, not the cause. I find myself eating so many veggies on WW that I never have problems. It happens when I am not dieting and I have too much fat/cheese/meat.

    Try increasing your fiber (bran cereal for breakfast), have prunes for a snack, and drink lots and lots of water. Stay away from cheese and bananas.
  • yeah have you tried 1 c fiber one with fruit? that oughtta do it....
  • Have you been taking your vitamins regularly. I find that if I forget about them for a few days my body isn't "normal".

    Also, are you eating fruits and vegetables, or mostly vegetables?
  • I actually am doing what you all suggest but I guess more fruits and veggies can't hurt! Thank you all for your replies!
  • Oh Princess, I'm sorry you're gong through this. I know how miserable it can be.

    You hang in there! It has to get better.
  • Peanut butter and yogurt will both give me ummm trouble LOL Maybe you are having a bit too much of one of those?
