I've had two loperamide (imodium) today for IBS and I could have had a third one. My IBS used to be really bad that I would take a loperamide a day but these days I hardly ever have to take one thank goodness, as the long term effects of taking it are not known.
Oddly, during a bad attack of IBS, my weight will increase, not decrease.

Sometimes the sorts of food that settle it are high carb foods, such as bread, rice, pasta, I wonder if that's why my weight increases.
I also wonder if colonic irrigation might help with IBS and weight loss.

This week I have eaten and eaten. I have taken in 3000 calories a day on most days. I have done no exercise.
I just weighed myself three times to be sure; I am the same weight as I was last Saturday.
Is diet and exercise really the way to lose weight?!
-
I wonder if the effects of stress and adrenaline impact on weight loss. You've had a busy week with your grandfather, work applications and your back and maybe you've burnt off nervous energy and that's why you've stayed the same
-
You stayed the same? Go you!! That's awesome! I agree with Nita, I bet you've walked further than you think, dealt with more stress etc....
-
I think the impact of stress is definitely a factor. I did quite a lot of housework yesterday too which burns off calories.
Also, hormonal impact, last week it was TOTM and now its not.
I am currently 14st 9lbs and I said I'd like to be 14st by the end of March, that's probably not possible but we'll see.
I am going to try to do a walk today, the more I move, the less pain I am in.

Well done you. I'm delighted for you. I've to do something about my weight and exercise this week.
On Tuesday we have our national holiday. There will be a parade up town, so I'll walk to that. We can leave the car at home. Probably better forthe enenvironment.

Ahh yes, St Patricks Day! A day represented by guiness, shamrocks and leprechauns!
