Re: Please help with your advice.. problems are driving me crazy

Hi again wurm...No you don't eat 'just' these things. You just need to add high
fiber to your diet...and leave off some of the junk. And I didn't have peaches
in my list of things :-) but that's ok. Peaches are good and pretty good for you.
I had 'avacado' on my list...now that's high in fiber, potassium...full of good
things...plus some good fat.

Skim down through this forum...and read some of the posts of how people have turned
their constipation around...you'll learn volumns. But you're just so young...I
didn't want you being led down the path of enemas and colonix..or anything drastic.
You need to start out simple. I doubt that you need a major Colon Cleanse or anything complicated. I think 'simple' will work for you. :-)

And I think you said you work swing shift or midnights...my husband just retired...
but worked swing shift for 30 years...midnights every 3 weeks...so I know from
experience that kind of work schedule can really mess you up.

I don't know how much of a health nut :-) you want to be. Many on here eat virtually nothing...but a few necessities...and they leave off all the good stuff.
I think that's way to drastic..but make time and room for your good stuff FIRST. :-)

I had read where someone else tried the 1/2 avacado with the 'wood bread' :-) and
that it made a big difference in their constipation problem...so I tried it and
saw an improvement. But I think you need to eat the 1/2 avacado at the same time
as the 'wood bread' (15 grain bread)...and then drink a glass of water.

There are so many things to try ... that are just simple old diet changes...and I
think that's what you need...just an improvement in your diet...more fiber and more
water....and then just slow down and take the time to go. :-/

I'm sorry my posts have been kind of rattled in posting to you. I've been so rushed
myself the last few days...but I saw your post right after you posted...and then I
checked back today when I was passing through the office just to see if you had
posted again and found your post above. I'll keep tabs...and if you don't see an
improvement within a couple of days...there are many other things to try.

You're very young...this problem will be easily solved for you. Trust me! kathryn
