    Oh - a friend of mine just told me recently that her daughter was having trouble going, so she fed her a bunch of watermelon and that did the trick.

    I haven't had to use them in a while, but vegetable laxatives are much gentler on the system than other laxatives - no cramping or running to the bathroom. Taking one just before bedtime usually had things moving by mid-morning the next day.

    I just drink 100% natural apple juice or light cranberry juice 8 oz will get me going in about 1-2hours :)

    this happened to me the many times i started eating healthy.
    i realized i was eating decent and cutting calories, but i wasn't eating enough fiber.

    eat more fiber, drink more water, and more veggies.
