She’s been told: Eat more fiber, eat more protein, try prunes, drink more water, try these over-the-counter stool softeners, try prescription medication, try senna tea, probiotics, etc. etc. etc.
The topic of chronic constipation is rarely or never talked about when it comes to losing weight. How are you suppose to lose weight if you’re not pooping normally
If you’re not pooping normally, it doesn’t matter what diet your on or what exercise routine you’re doing, the weight won’t come off.
My partner poops maybe 3-4 times a WEEK. When she does poop, it’s literally only 3 small balls that come out.
Compared to me: I poop about 3-4 times a DAY. Just the other day I was 200 lbs, and after pooping that day, I weighed 196 lbs. In contrast, when she poops, her weight more or less stays the same, because not much is released.
She’s tried all the typical suggestions I listed above. Momentarily they work, but nothing works permanently to help her body poop consistently.
Does any one else have this same chronic constipation? What have you tried that works consistently?
Or any other suggestions she can try?
