How regular are you on a CKD?

[kentucky]

I take in about 25g of fiber a day. That is well above average of the average American. Yet, I can't poop.


I start getting a dull headache, and feeling like my stomach is going to pop, but nothing happens. I go to the toilet and think "i'm going to let that turd have it", but the only thing that comes out is a little ribbonlike strand.


How often do you guys go?

If I up my fiber, I have gas all day, and I'm really bloated. . . what else can I do?

When I first started CKD I took the biggest craps of my life for some reason now I go about every 2 to 3 dyas not bad not the best, but it sounds like your fiber is good so it could be all in your mind just relax a little and you will be fine

I remember at first, it was pretty bad, but after the 3rd week, I'm pretty regular. The body adjusts, I guess (and the fiber in almonds helps).

do you ever have any of those really satisfying ones, that make you feel like tightening your belt?

o man, when I was on CKD, I swear I was lucky to go once every 2 days... Remember to spread your fiber out over the course of the day for optimum results. Also remember that we have 2 types of fiber; the insoluble variety being the colon cleanser of the family.

Are you taking a fiber supplement? If not you should. Since girls "don't poop" I have nothing to share. But a friend of mine is on CKD. The first week was awful. No poop for 3-4 days, then a big, scary one. 2nd week, everything is going much better. Also this friend of mine started ALA and that seemed to help.

Are you drinking enough water? Your intestines need some lube to move that stuff.

When I was on a CKD, in terms of quantity, it was low, but frequency was once a day easy.

I drink a glass of sugar-free metamucil every night and everything seems to be A-OK here.
