    I've really enjoyed this board the past three weeks. I've been doing this for 21 days and lost almost 17 pounds. I'm drinking lots of water, more than the protocol, however, I am experiencing some constipation. Anyone have any ideas of how to find relief? Thanks in advance :)

    Hi there! Been there, done that! :)) Look for senna tablets at your grocery store, one name brand is senecot. its an herb. You may have heard of smooth move tea? the active ingredient is senna. I prefer the tabs to the tea...more predictable. And both are p2 friendly. Hang in there!!! You are doing great!! :))

    I HIGHLY recommend doing a saline enema. I know it sounds awful but its not at all and it makes you feel so so so so so much better. It does't just get you moving it cleans you out. you will feel like a new person within an hour :) (and you'll have a bm in 3 min)

    magnesium works wonders..... I take the Now brand magnesium 400 mg capsules. you can take enough to give you diarrhea and then back off until you become regular. I take 4-5 daily.

    Is senna okay then as opposed to regular laxatives? I thought taking any kind of laxative(including senna) was a no-no?

    Okay, I might have a silly question..

    Now I would like to know normally you are suppose to have bowel movement everyday. From my understand that if you don't have it everyday on HCG then that is normal. So my question is how many days of no bowel movement is worng? two, three?
