    personal question__read with caution *smile*

    I need to know if laxitives would be okay in this case... I have not used the bathroom in over 2 weeks... I have ate more veggies... I have done nothing but drink water.... My tummy hurts bloated and I don't feel like eating now because of this... Any suggestions...

    Id like to get a lavitive or stoolsoftner but not sure if that would raise my sugar or whatever...

    Im still doing induction thanks

    Hi there, I had the same problem when I was in the Induction Phase. Have you tried Flaxmeal? It's loaded with Fiber and should help you out in no time. When I tried it I mixed 2 Tbsp of the Flaxmeal with 2 Tbsp Water and 1 Ounce Parmesam Cheese, spread it out on wax paper and microwave it until it becomes crisp like a cracker. They're pretty good

      yes they are allowed. Dr Atkins recoomended natural veggie ones which would be ones with senna in them. you can also use glycerine supositories very gentle very cheap no carb.blood sugar effects.

      since you are constipated you can use fibers in your Atkins plan now per rule 12 of induction and you can use them daily to stay regular too. remember to drink lots of water too as fiber with out water just makes hard plugs in the bowels.

        Thanks everyone. This really helped me. I got some flax oil today but not even sure that is what I needed and some fiber caps. If the added fiber doesn't help I'll do the laxie veggie thing anyway thanks again.

          OK, I would have been running to the drugstore for a Fleets Enema about 10 days ago. But that's just me.
