Bottom line is if you use something that causes your colon to expel foods and water then you are taking a laxitive and laxitives shouldn't be used to LOSE WEIGHT! That is how this thread began. Someone used a laxitive to lose 25 pounds and now we have folks buying into it. I stated before and am stating again that we have folks joining up daily and when they see threads like this, well it gives the wrong impression. Laxitives should never ever be used to lose weight! And if our colons are are nasty as they claim then we would be dead because of the bacteria and can you imagine how swollen our bellies would be if stuff from 20 years ago were still in there? Come on folks...don't buy into this quick fix. Weight lost this way will be gained back along with a resistance to normal bowl movements without aid. Honestly, if all folks had to do was take something to make them poop in order to not be fat then there wouldn't be an obese person in the world! Bottom line is, if one eats a balanced diet and drinks plenty of water to aid in flushing out the system and hydrate the bod then one wouldn't need to take something to make them poop. If one is eating such a diet and still cannot poo then they need to see a doctor to find out why because more than likely there is a medical condition involved.
