Hi,
For the water, you should drink 64 ounces of water and
I think, above that, it is 8 oz for every 5 pounds you want to lose.
Psyllium husk [found in health food store]is something that I used on Atkins.
It takes tree days to work .The idea is to stir 1 teaspoon in a glass of water and stir it vigorously .Drink it while it is still moving. It will gel and make your stools easier to move. You take it every day.
There is no carbs in it.
You know salads and coleslaw at your meals. Broccoli or cauliflower, should keep you going. Did you read the book?
There are some threads on the board about constipation
