    High dose magnesium gals. That's the most productive solution I found when it was my problem.
    Or try carnivore..

    Second the magnesium!!! I take 2-3 500 mg capsules at bedtime for sleep and constipation relief! @Sunny_Bunny_ I am debating on going carnivore. Did you have any initial problems switching from lchf to this WOE?

    Not at all. I almost immediately noticed things were better. Very similar to when I first went low carb.
    I even lost weight after having been stalled for months. Though, I've actually put that back on. I am eating more vegetables than that first month of carnivore though. But not as many as before. Since I actually do like them, and can handle them in small amounts, I keep eating them to a point. So, I think I have a bit of digestive inflammation that explains the weight, though not enough to keep me from eating vegetables completely.

    Echo all said above for magnesium, I take Chelated Magnesium glycinate (read somewhere that "ate" was the way to go.) Doesn't upset stomach and aids in preventing constipation. Also occasionally will have celery filled with whipped cream cheese, or when the carb count permits I will mix plain, full fat yogurt with 1/4 cup Fiber One cereal.
