    Every morning before you eat or drink anything squeeze a lemon in warm water and drink it up. Works for me every time. Good luck

    Drink extra water, try Licorice tea, and my doctor recommends Miralax (it's not a laxative), all those work for me. Extra fiber makes it worse for me.

    constipation is pretty common with low carb diets....the bane of Atkins (as I recall....). You can add some ground flaxseeds to your food, and be sure to get LOTS of the heftier veggies, like celery and broccoli. You need some fiber to keep things moving, and all that protein doesn't have much.

    Metamucil! Walmart has a generic brand of it! It works! You mix it with water, kind of orange flavored. Not bad at all! And if you travel you can buy the cookies called Metamucial wafers. They are not bad either.
