Lots of water helps me but my friend swears by yogurt 

Coffee, coffee, coffee... oh, and did I mention COffEe?!?!?! 

I've had the same problem. Lots of fiber needed! I have found that prunes do the job for me. I'm not crazy about them, but I know they're good for me. Or eat some oat bran with flaxseed added (if you're not doing Keto).  

SNL skit about colon blow and super colon blow---watch this while eating flaxseed, broccoli, and fiber one cereal. Done. 

Milk of magnesia - just follow the instructions on the bottle. 

spoonful of yogurt , which has probiotic or dark chocolate 72% or higher.. this helps me.. 

Abbadabba...I do need more water. We just got a water softener and now I don’t like the taste of it. I used to love our water. ☹️ 

From371......I drink coffee everyday. It doesn’t do anything for me. I wish it did. 😬 

LSG417.....I don’t mind prunes. I think that’s what I need. I gotta see how many calories are in prunes. 🤔 

Darylswife...Milk of Mag? I have a REAL hard time drinking yucky tasting stuff. :( 

Take a shot of extra virgin olive oil. Kinda gross but gets the job done 

I have some Oikos Triple Zeros. I think I know what breakfast is gonna be. 😁 

LenaB.....I can’t drink yucky stuff like oil. I’m a whimp. Thanks though. 🙂 

Terrapin....SNL skit while eating fiber? Hmmm...that’s a different kinda theory. It sounds more fun than drinking yucky stuff.😉 

I take a probiotic twice a day.... keeps me regular! 

Metamucil is your friend.  

Eating Fiber like Raw Coconut daily or use Ex Lax or Ducolax Pills are my favorites. Good Luck🍀 

Magnesium CITRATE. Must use mag citrate not oxide or any other magnesium. It is a mild natural muscle relaxant. Take at night with water. You will sleep like a baby, no leg cramps ( if you’re prone to leg cramps), and a nice BM in the morning. I use Daily brand capsules. 100 mg. Now that I’m Keto I take 3 at night but if you’ve never taken it start with one. Do not take if you have kidney failure or insufficiency. 

Have you tried an apple or possibly a protein shake? Those seem to work for me. Coffee does the trick for me too.  

I get the Southern Grove prunes from Aldi. 40 g (4 to 5 prunes) has 100 calories and 4 g of fiber.
