Jenn31MA 149 Posted March 5, 2013 Time for real talk.... Hope this isn't TMI. I'm not going..... Ugggh!!! I know I don't eat enough veggies but by the time I fit Protein in there's not room for much more. I can go over a week without going. That's just not healthy. Ive taken Milk of magnesia and Mirilax. It will eventually happen with the aid of a chemical product but I hate that I have to take them do what should come natural. I even thought that maybe I'm eating too much Greek Yogurt???? (Lots of protein in that stuff) Is anyone else having this issue???? I was having the same issue. I bought Fiber gummies and you take two a day. It took about a week but i go every day now!!! They were a huge help i recommend you try them Oh and sometimes i forfeit the protein in favor of veggies to help...were far enough out where we can eat more so u can always sub in a Protein Shake as a snack if you feel you need more protein or Jerky etc. Its too much protein that will bind you up Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kparker0501 88 Posted March 5, 2013 GREEN!! You look AMAZING! Miralax is awesome unleess you need a stimulant which Senecot works wonders! Thank you for the hit up on MFP. I am doing VERY well with my weight loss. I started exercising and OMG I can not beleive how much weight I am dropping now. I am between a 12-14 and I have NO clothes which sucks and is awesome all at the same time. I am still losing hair at 5 months out. NGMA- HELLO! I hope you feel better! My entire family got it and it lasted a couple of weeks and it stunk! JENN- You are almost to Onderland! Awesome job. Artsong/Rybecca- You girls also look great! I love seeing the updated profiles. I have to do mine soon! Love you girls. Forgive me for not being on here more often. I am seperating from the hubby ( and no not because the weightloss, because he is an A-HOLE, lol) and I have a lot going on. I miss you all though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
