Drinking too much? Too many bathroom stops?

I'm not sure if it's the same for everyone? I guess I am wondering if it is, and if so, how to best deal with and get support around all the psychological…

It took me hours just to figure out how to create a post. What I really want to know is where can I find recipe's that have been shared, all I have managed to do is find a recipe and see it's nutritional values, nothing else.
