Weight Loss Thread 2014

I also noticed a change in regularity after starting LCHF. I used to be every day; now I occassionally skip a day.

Make sure you're drinking enough water, and not eating too much protein, and are getting in there with the salads and veg.

I was perfectly fine, didn't change anything but have problems all of a sudden...

In addition to the above, strong coffee or turkish apricots (serious fruity cheat) work quite well in getting things moving.
 
There's a difference between constipation and not having to go... If you feel like you need to go and can't, that's constipation, then eat a few more veggies. If you just don't need to go then rejoice in the fact that your body is actually absorbing all the nutrients in your food and not having to deal with so much waste.

I know the difference :D
But its strange that is just all of a sudden when things were going well for so long....

That makes more sense :)

How long have you been doing LCHF? So seem quite knowledgeable on the subject.

Totally, well put.
 
Since we're talking about internal issues, I'm going to bring up something fairly disturbing.

So, I presume this has something to do with the high fat content of the food I eat, but I have managed to (how to put this delicately? )... create situations where the capacity of the toilet to render its contents deep into the bowels of the earth is utterly overwhelmed by the buoyant nature of the waste material.

This can lead to some terribly awkward situations...

Bwahaha so eloquently put :p tie a stone to each "floater".

Eish, haha. I've not had any problems of this sort as of yet..

The body is weird, I'm sure you got constipated when you weren't banting too:-) eat your veggies!!!!

Bout 9 months now, however my mother works with a doc that personally knows Noakes(studied together) and runs the LCHF program in zim... My sister also studied under Noakes in CT

rofl :D

I take it the flush thrice method isn't working :D
 
After about ten flushes, I had to engage in a manual removal.

It was not a pleasant experience.

I no longer use that particular toilet.

Don't share certain things :(

I do :) I eat a lot of veggies and always struggled with my tummy but it was fine for long up until now. Which is why I was wondering what ingredients in pills might be causing it.
 
Any of you guys suffer from a bit of constipation lately?

First time in probably 15 years it has happened to me. And I haven't changed anything in my diet for the past 4 months of LCHF. No problems before now.

Any ideas?

Strong coffee with lots of coconut oil/butter should get you running
 
sounds like some of you lot need to start investigate your gut flora, start looking at prebiotics
