Increase your veggie intake - especially dark leafy greens - and hydrate! You may be partially dehydrated, getting used to the diet, and eating a little too much meat (as a ratio to veggies). I find that a good ratio is 5-6 cups of veggies (mostly dark leafy greens) to protein about the size of my palm is good for a meal (versus 6oz of steak and a cup of green beans, etc).0

Try some legumes and whole grains.
<< Eats enough fiber. Goes 2-3 times a day.
That'll be the 20 bit of 80/20 then.
I've read the book, ate that way for a while, saw that I didn't need to restrict anything, doing fine now.
The 'Carbohydrate Curve' is laughable by the way ...
I still wear my Grok t-shirt but I make sure I'm munching a sandwich when I'm out in public.0 -
People say WATER! but i drink like 10 glasses a day and eat at least 2-3 pieces of fruit and i still have to take a stool softener about every 3 days . unless I've eaten something like beans . i try to add fiber supplements (stir ins) to my water sometimes too.0

medimucel...or dates.
I'd at least wait until the third date before asking for help with this, though.
