P2 Day 5

It's strange to think that I've already been doing this for 5 days! I have made a huge effort not to cheat and therefore there is no eating out which is good. I weighed in this morning with a loss of 0.5 lbs but also with the realization that my usual morning BM has been absent pretty much for the last 3-4 days. I don't like that at all. I have a little bit of gas but no discomfort. However, I can only imagine what will happen once I actually have one. YIKES! So I took some herbs this morning in the hopes that it will get things going. If it doesn't, I'll definitely try some of the other suggestions that people have made regarding constipation.

So far this morning I just took my drops but haven't eaten anything yet. I did drink a little bit of water to take some herbs. I'm sure it's all in my head but I feel like I can already feel things starting to move. Fingers crossed!

I haven't really exercised yet on this protocol. I normally walk daily but it's been cold lately and I haven't mustered up enough gusto to get my butt outside and walk. I guess I could do a tape or something like that. That should get things going too. Hopefully.

I guess I won't be able to tell for certain what kind of effect my melba toast had unless I repeat my meals without the toast. I just figured that adding that in might change things up a bit.
