Day 55 of 90 - down 15 pounds

Things that cause constipation and fecal impaction:
My asthma medication

Chocolate

Painkillers example codeine

Vitamins including iron supplements

Too much dairy

Depression

Low carbohydrate diet/not enough green vegetables

Well, there you have it… All the reasons why I got sick.  And yes, chocolate. I was trying to incorporate dark chocolate into my diet because of the healthy benefits. Unfortunately, it can cause some issues and some people.

So what am I going to do about this? I am on antibiotics because of infection I got in my bowels because of the blockage.

I now have to restore good gut Flora with probiotics.

I need to incorporate 85% green leafy vegetables in my diet.

I am stopping my pain medication.

I need to eat for health and not for fun. 


I am still trying to get eight hours of sleep per night but find it extremely difficult.

This week I am going to be very lite. I need to fix my intestinal tract.

Lots of yogurt, fermented foods and vegetables smoothies. 

I am also starting a regimen of shakeology  cleanse.
