I'm having right trouble with my tummy! I'm sp uncomfortable and bloated and haven't "been" for a good few days does anyone have any ideas on how to make it better? I went for a long run yesterday and a long walk Sunday but it's not helped! And I had chilli last night I've got some prunes in the cupboard but I'm a little reluctant!

Drink loads of water...eat extra fibre. All bran and banana and you'll be away

I've not got any all bran, will have to go to the shop! Have been trying to up my water intake anyway so it's a good reason to drink more!

Plenty of fruit and vegetables, high fibre carbs as opposed to white bread/rice etc. Kiwi fruit is supposed to be pretty much as good as prunes and plenty of water That's what I have picked up along the way anyway

Thanks! I've never really had this problem before lol! I've been eating White bread recently which I think hasn't helped! Going to eat some prunes in a min I think!

Lots of fibre, fruit and veg. Sometimes strong coffee can help. Hope the prunes work if all else fails!

Happy to report I've been I'm still not quite right, but at least things are, *aherm* moving in the right direction I'll be getting some bran flakes and brown bread too, I've been so lazy eating wise that it's probably made my system slow down!

It can happen. Eating more dark, leafy greens will help. Apple juice is a good alternative to prune juice, and it's a little gentler on your stomach. Pears are also good sources of soluble fiber.
