hopeful in VT

Hi ladies,

I'm not sure if this belongs in this forum or the weight loss one...but hopefully someone will know the answer...

I have recently jumped back on the low carb diet bandwagon and am on 1500mg of Met a day. On previous tries at this diet, when i was not on Met, I would get constipation. My question is this...since I am on the Met, will that help battle the constipation?? It has been almost a week and I haven't had a problem yet...but I was wondering if anyone had an insight into this. And also....can you go too low on your carbs when you are taking Met? Just want to be careful...thats all!

Thanks in Advance!!

From my short experience with met, you still can get constipation. In fact I noticed that the days when I really watch my carb intake, it is constipation city. Just eat some salad and most likely you will relieve yourself of the constipation.

Going too low carb on met or not can be dangerous if you are doing it by yourself with out a doctors supervision. Be very careful.
