p.s. (now TMI on my part) i have IBS and that happens to me on a regular basis. Its amazing how much the belly can grow from that. I feel your pain. If you get really uncomfortable... buy some milk of magnesia that stuff is great

Wow-you’re doing it cold turkey? Good for you! Drink coffee and then have a cold glass of water- works like a charm

i am probably the least comfortable person in the world right now. it really is not fun. i have this tea that I know would work, but it works a little TOO well. i cant risk it during the work week.

coffee then water? hmm.
this would be my 5th cup of coffee today... but... ill give it a shot as soon as Im done with my tootsie pop.
yes cold turkey. honestly DH stopping is enough motivation for me to stay strong. and although hes using chantix and nicorette, he hasnt had a cigarette and im so damn proud of him.

I had a similiar problem when I quit smoking. I used to have my coffee and cigarette in the morning, then go. Try eating high fiber foods.

Seriously, that's great!!! Congrats!!! On the quitting cold turkey- not the erm constipation.
Honestly, smoking really does help you poop. I'd definitely add some fiber.

congrats on quitting smoking ....!!! keep it up!
also, not to sound depressing or whatnot, but it's really unhealty not to poop for so long ... your body needs to get rid of those toxins! DH's ex-co-worker didn't poop for about a week and eventually had to be taken to the hospital! (sorry for being such a debbie downer) .... try eating bananas (that's what they told that guy to do)

Re: all about me for a second... warning maybe tmi
Why not try foods that contain a good source of fiber...like fruits.
I just googled this and these are foods that help with those who are a bit **constipated**
avocados bananas berries peaches plums melons apples pears grapes.
spinach, broccoli and all salad greens green peas, beans and lentils cabbage potatoes carrots mushrooms beetroot cauliflower corn Brussels sprouts cereals like oatmeal and bran whole wheat products barley spaghetti and pasta.
You gotta eat girl!! And stay away from cheese that will definitely keep you constipated.
Good Luck!!
