Week 1 constipation

[famousname]

Oooh boy. Week one. Actually only day 5. Constipated AF. Col-Ace didn't help, but Fleet did! I had forgotten how constipated this diet made me last time I did it in 2008. I knew it was coming as my stomach got bloated and hard. I feel so much better now. What do you do for relief?

I should note that I am also gluten intolerant so I can't use anything with wheat in it.

Hi Famous,
I personally can't help there (see my sig) but do try the Search button up top right. It is likely this topic has had some discussion before.

I know this is an older post, but I came across it while reading through the forum. Constipation can be frustrating when starting a new diet. Staying hydrated and sticking to the foods allowed on the plan may help. If it keeps happening or becomes uncomfortable, it would be better to check with a doctor or pharmacist about suitable options.
