Poop

When I ate meat I didn't go everyday.... now that I'm vegan I go every morning like clockwork.

Also, sugar free gummy bears.

she asked to poop, not have explosive diarrhea

OP, i find i can never drop the kids off first thing in the morning, i usually have to wait until after work to unleash the kraken

(insert 3rd poop related humorous statement here)

hahah your response to this is hilarious lol

Does blending the fruit and veggies into liquid destroy the fibre they contain?

Juicing does remove some of the fiber. You're actually better off eating raw vegetable and fruit than juicing if you want more fiber in your diet. They also fill you up more than juice and have fewer calories.

I'm on 1200 calories, too, and have a similar problem. It stems from my inability to relax in the mornings, from way back when I had young kids at home that I had to get off to school (similar to another poster). I had a thread a while back asking about cleanses because I was worried about it, and someone sent me a link saying that for some people it's normal for some people to go every 2-3 days. I take 5 psyllium capsules and a probiotic every day and that has helped. Also, if I have coffee and bacon, that does the trick, although as someone who is supposed to be eating 1200 healthy calories, bacon is not supposed to be "on plan." However, it's only 80 calories for 2 slices. Make a BLT on whole wheat bread or sprinkle some bacon on a salad, and see how it goes

Also, sugar free gummy bears.

^ This will definitely work

Just b/c... Poop.

You could try stewed prunes and apricots

If you drink a hot drink followed immediately by a cold drink it can get things moving. I find all bran cereal works a treat too.

I eat these fiber one 90 calorie brownies and they have a lot of fiber but one time when I was on a cheat day I decided to eat the whole box of them, there was 7 of them in there....BIG MISTAKE.....I could have rocketed myself to the moon that night and for the next 12 hours.

Having one or two a day can help the flow of things, just don't over do it.

Hahaha! The mental image of this has me dying!

how can i train my body to poop every morning? im taking align probiotics, drinking a HUGE fruit and veggie packed smoothie every day with added fibre supplement, and about 1/2cup 90% lactose free probiotic yogurt, and im still not pooping daily. whyyy?

I've had the same problem, I've always drank a lot of water but i try to drink more if i feel bloated or cant go for a few days, eventually i end up 'popping' because my body cant take anymore water :laugh:

hehe...we're talking about poop. hehe </Beavis and Butthead>

I haven't read the whole thread, so this may have already been said, but I'll bet my bottom dollar it hasn't. As such, check it: do "breath of fire" for 11 minutes.

Breath of fire: inhale/exhale rapidly as though hyperventilating but through the nose without break. At first, before you're accustomed to this, you'll break. That's okay. Just pick back up and continue. It's great if you can sit on the ground with upright posture while doing this. Repeat for 11 minutes. (Once you achieve 11 minutes, 22 minutes is the next goal.)

It will get things moving. More, it's excellent for many other mental and health purposes. You will feel everything in your body wake up - including your digestive tract.

I did not read all of the replies on this thread, but many. Are you drinking enough water?

I have a problem with being relaxed. like a really big one. i suffer from multiple mental illnesses. I also have IBS that this effects. when im away from home sometimes i go a week without pooping, or else have terrible diarrhea. sorry for TMI.

This might be a bad idea and very controversial but I did a 7 day JUICE FAST with the help of a nutritionist and that really improved my pooping.... I got the idea from Fat Sick and Nearly Dead

I was constipated again last week but that is because I quit drinking coffee. Now I'm OK again THANK GOD
