Yup - you have to add fiber to your diet through fruits and veggies - those type of carbs cancel themselves out - blackberries, strawberries, sweet potato, green beans,all have good fiber and nutrients! 

Thanks HCB. Its been hectic this last month but I will do what I can to get regular again. 

I didn't really want to bring it up but the keeping regular is an issue for me too. I am eating all kinds of fibre, fruit, veg, chia seeds, ground flax, etc, but I feel like I am not getting rid of what I am ingesting, and feel backed up. I have even added psyllium to drinks but alas no regularity. It can be quite annoying and uncomfortable. I guess I need to really pump my self with water to keep it all moving. I am a bit frustrated considering I am eating so much more roughage than I used to -it's almost like my body is protesting not having all the simple carbs it used to have ;) 

OH! I forgot to mention the water! They say to drink minimum of half your body weight - so, Gabe would drink over 100 ounces per day - try it tomorrow when you are home and can toilet regularly until you get used to high consumption of water! 

Assembling and mixing computers is awesome and it's fun! It used to be my part time job as a teenager! :) I hope you enjoyed it!
