Dear Princess Know It All and Gutzy Ginny (Virginia Harper):

For the past year or MORE, I’ve suffered from serious constipation!!  I’m LUCKY if I have a bowel movement once a week, I’ve been to many doctors and tried different pills.  They’ve even done a colonoscopy – Came back NORMAL!

NOTHING works!

I’m in my early 20’s and living loaded and bloated totally bites!  Is there anything I can do with my diet to aid the situation?

Sincerely

Loaded and Bloated….

Dearest Loaded and Bloated:

I totally hear ya!  The past week has been rough, I myself have been slightly backed up and struggling to pinch a loaf, those little turtles I pop kinda get me down!  After too many planes in a row and not enough fresh veggies and water intake – loaded and bloated is what we share in common!

I asked Gutzy Ginny what she thought and this was her response: Constipation…..increase vegetables –raw and cooked —  triple the amount eating now. Cut back sugar, hard cheeses, bread and  meat products. Chew your food 50x before swallowing and drink hot water with lemon first thing in the morning before eating anything. Relax and make your self sit down to eat, breathing in between bites.

So here WE go together, be sure to write me back and let me know if these changes worked for you! I for sure will be sharing my process..ha,ha!
