My bowels and I have been on a journey.
There are few things more humbling than standing in line at Duane Reade with a Fleet enema in your hand, (at the location with the “out-of-order” self-checkout of course) because you just want to poop like a human.
So when I say I’ve been there, trust me, I’ve been there.
I started taking a moderate weight management medication called metformin that, while helpful, has the unfortunate side effect of slowing things down in the gut department if I’m not adequately hydrated. So, given I live a perpetually dehydrated life, I was feeling a little… stuck.
Even with a decent diet and my trusty fiber bars, I was still feeling thick.
