Ok so now you seem the title and wonder what this is about. Well it's actually what it states. Ever since I've changed the way I eat, I'm finding that I'm popping less and it's more if a struggle.
Gone are the earlier days where I would throw mud without trying and it was often. Now that I think back, I also experienced alot of tummy distress and bloating too.
Now I go once a day and its harder to get it out than I ever though. Surprisgly no tummy distress or bloating anymore. And I do eat more fiber than I used to.
So what gives?

Ok TMI....I end up with the same problem when I eat healthier. I end up making sure I eat extra fiber & take Fiber One and either get gassy or it doesn't help. Since I haven't been eating so well, I'm back to being "normal" in that way. Ugh. Can't win....0

More water.

Johnny Footballs Pic is too funny! hahaha Yes PRUNE JUICE! lol and water water water!0

you probably are still under your fiber needs and you probably are eating less fat in your diet which can help "grease" the wheels0

Is your fat high enough in your diet?0

I added more fiber to my diet(veggies) and a supplement called psyllium husk and chia seeds. Water about 10-15 cups per day.0
-
Hot coffee always works for me............ tons of water all day every day0

More water.
This. From experience. :blushing:0 -
Try some Taco Bell
Only kinda joking. I personally find when I eat too clean, its hard to get things going in the bathroom. Try some fatty foods, give the body something to push out ya know.
*no science to back my statement. Just personal experience*0 -
More water, fibre and letting your body get used to the change which can take anywhere from weeks to months.
Sometimes a big change in what you regularly eat throws your body into shock so it tries to figure out what to do so some regular functions may not function regularly until your body figures out what to do with the increase/decrease.0 -
Ditto on the probiotics. Started them recently and...........yeah.0
