Starting day five

And we have.. loosening of the pants!

Not gonna weigh until morning of day 15, but it's nice to be getting the "signs".

My biggest challenge has been breakfast variety. These look good:

When do you get to use flax seed meal?

Woo Hoo! Good job on the loose pants
I think you can use flax seed from the beginning...especially if you're having trouble going to the bathroom. Not sure though.

Re: Starting day five

I cant find it and i gotta get off here now, i'm pretty sure you can have a tablespoon a day. Someone will confirm that i'm sure!

Yep, you can. Although because Dr A mentions it as something you can have for the relief of constipation, I am never quite sure if it's allowable only if you're bunged up or allowed anyway as a preventative.

Re: Starting day five

Thanks everyone! I think it should be fine if I have them just a couple times a week then. I was thinking the flax seed was ok, but it's not exactly on the induction list so I thought I'd check.

I haven't experienced any cravings or headache, only slightly tired the third day, and I've actually had a little energy boost as of yesterday. So I'm definitely encouraged!
