i too struggle with constipation, drives me mad, only cure i've found is saving a heb, and having a bowl of 42g crunchy bran with a banana on top for supper. lol.

I was going to say that's zit cream, no wonder. :eek: But then I had a look at my son's stuff and it's Duac.

I'm still on a high after beginning SW on Monday. I'm wondering when it wears off. I'm still like the back end of a bus, but i'm all excited lol

senocot are great, but only take 1 and don't take if you have ibs as it can inflame it.

your father in law should try eating gluten free products,i.e.bread and pastry,.he can still enjoy his pies.most supermarkets sell a good range of FREE FROM products.My m.i.l.sufferd from ibs until she tried g.free foods.:shocked:

peachyest - my OH's got IBS and its his father who likes his frozen food - no IBS(convinience aas he's on his own probably!). Thanks though. My OH (or I) don't eat a lot of pastry stuff as we're both on SW!

Yes my OH has noticed this! Possibly tomato's too though the Dr thinks other medication he's on might be causing it!

I'm gutted, just weighed in at work (we get SW come in every Wednesday) and stayed the same.... I have been so good too...........

16011996 - soup is fine when blended down, it's just the sugars in fruit that is the problem when juiced/blended!

My fave at the mo is butternut squash and celeriac soup - beautiful!!
