I am slowly getting to grips with my new toilet routine on Victoza. I currently sprinkle a teaspoon of flax seeds on my morning yoghurt but what other products help to bind things up a bit? What 'attribute' of food should I be looking at to see if it will do this

Sorry if that's to much information :?

Customer helplines that use recorded menus that promise to put me through to the right person but never do - and being ill. Oh, and did I mention customer helplines :)

I think its foods high in fibre that are considered good for this sort of problem

Google foods high in fibre im sure you'll find a list :thumbup:

ps. just googled it and this looks like a pretty good list http://thyroid.about.com/od/loseweights ... hfiber.htm

Er ....OP wants to bind things up a bit and I think that fibre may do the opposite. Not that I need to bother with all that myself so I could be wrong (again).

Hi

Aren't eggs supposed to 'bung you up' or is that an old wives tale?

Yes, hard boiled ones and leave the shell on. That would do it. Seriously though I think that eggs do bung you up.

My brother, a vet, swears by ground peanut shells. Grind in a coffee grinder and sprinkle a teaspoonful onto something like yoghurt.
