[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 496290, member: 11791"] Avoid bananas - they are great if you've got mild runs and can't get it stopped, but... put them on the no-no list for you. Don't go TOO heavy on prunes or prune juice - its a fairly strong jolt to the system. But have some DAILY. And then... add fiber every chance you get. Apples and/or apple sauce are great - because of the pectin. Citrus fruits... but only if you eat the whole fruit, not just the juice (its the fiber that helps... and juice with added pulp just doesn't cut it) Hot home-made oatmeal (don't shoot me... you can do this: 1/4 c quick rolled oats, pinch of salt, micro-safe dish, add 1/2 c boiling water, put on lid or cover with plate, then toss towel over top; come back later... 10 min, or 30 min, or 60 min... doesn't affect anything except how long for next step; take off covers, put bowl in micro, cook on high until it bubbles up... if you waited about 10 min, it should bubble in about 30 secs, if you waited 30 min, it will take more like 50 sec... etc. Add usual toppings... VERY high in multiple forms of fibre!) notice - no pot to wash, just the bowl you ate out of... While you're at it, make sure you're getting some FAT, too. Ideally, healthy fat, but at this point... any fat is first priority (oh. I forgot. You even use bacon fat on brussels sprouts...) Fat helps "grease the works", and yes, even when you're eating absolutely the most healthy you can get... you MUST get fats in your diet! Beyond that... hmmm... maybe you need to put this moocher-dude to work hand-digging a swimming pool for you so you can exercise? And hand-chopping the wood to keep the water hot? If you work him hard enough, he might get the message and leave... and if he doesn't at least he can do YOU some good?? (just kidding...) [/QUOTE]
