FULL OF SH*T! The ongoing saga of lady constipation.

Sunday night I had two ladies over for dinner and we had a grand ol time eating my gastronomically designed turkey burgers and talking about not being able to shit and what to do about it.

I love constipation. It's the final frontier in control issues, when your body is all just I AM NOT LETTING THIS GO NONOONONONONONOOOOO!

And there are myriad ways to deal with it. No, not this. I think this is a bad idea - too hot, too fast, too much like a self-induced shitstorm.

Here are a few of my recent faves:

-Overdose just slightly on Vitamin C with bioflavanoids. Instead of taking the recommended dose, double it. That will usually loosen your bowels. DO NOT GO NUTS WITH THIS. Do not get impatient and take TEN. Take three or four and wait. :)

-Magnesium will also help things move along. There are a few magnesium mixes that are a good idea, and help to keep stuff moving.

-Take 2 tablespoons of ground up flaxseed in a glass of water.
