No, it is because I would have to clean my colon first!..

Well, I guess it's fine for other people who are comfy with it. But I kind of like to keep my parasites to myself. Talking about it is one thing, but I don't see me being able to load up my wallet album so I can whip those baby's out at the grocery checkout.

That would be totally inappropriate at the grocery checkout, I totally agree. Pictures like that are ONLY for educational purposes for others that may benefit from the Knowlege. Many wont 'move' with information until convinced visually. Pun intended.

To each his own i know. I grew up in a family where everything was hush, hush...dont tell..so I have gone the other way, hide nothing...lol. I like learning and I dont mind teaching when I have the chance.

At least ya'll have been willing to TALK about the subject, many I know are grateful even if they havent stopped lurking.

Sorry I did get a chance to post yesterday. I've been busy with my mom who went into surgery yesterday.

Nothing unordinary happened yesterday. Since increasing the pills and fiber, the BMs are much larger now. I went big time in the morning and had a small BM in the evening, but still felt incomplete and bloated the second time. I believe it was the brocolli that I ate last night bcuz soon after I became very bloated and uncomfortable. And I hadn't felt bloated in the evenings for about 4 days prior.

This morning I had a surprise that I've been waiting for......a 1 1/2 ft. ropy looking piece of poo. I was so amazed!! Upon close inspection, it looked like it had taken on the form of my intestines. It was also very tough bcuz I poked it and was unable to break it. Man, am I glad I got rid of that!!

I think I'll increase my water intake again. I'm not pooing as much as I think I should and if I poo more than once, the second time usually isn't as productive.

see...is it just SO WRONG of me that i'm seriously hanging around my house today praying the postman brings me my colonix today. My 9 yr old is anxiously waiting for his ebay purchase of pokemon movies, and i'm waiting for poopoo medicine. I hope he doesnt excitedly open mine if he gets it first and it stunts his growth from shock. It sure aint pokemon!!!

I cant WAIT to have a rope come out of me! Aint that just so sick of me!

Kerry, I was kidding about the pics. I wouldn't frame them for display, either. That would be absolutely horrible. Can you imagine having a pic of a giant tapeworm tacked up on the wall?!

I just meant I am a bit more private about showing that sort of thing. I will talk just fine, though. My mom was a nurse before she had kids, and she was always pretty clinical about bodily functions. And with 4 kids, I find it comes in handy when talking to their docs because I actually know what they are talking about!

Keisham The ropy stuff sounds like what I saw at first, too--the color was really weird, almost greyish tan. And I have read that color is very typical with yeast overgrowth. I am happy to hear you are rid of it!

I hope your mom is doing well.

Nursey

Well...I've just read all 15 pages of this....uh,....interesting thread.

I just ordered my first supply of colonix...

I wish I didn't have to wait to start!

I was thinking about buying something called Cleanse Smart that they sell at our local Health Food Store. I thought I could start that while I'm waiting for my Colonix to arrive. has anyone ever heard of it?

i have my non lowcarb friends interested in colonix now. Actually it started out with me mentioning it, then me mentioning that nasty man's toilet photos but when my friend looked at the toilet she couldnt get past the poo to look at the fork, food, gatoraide, hair and ickiness...she was morbidly fasinated.

She is now ordering the colonix! She is so funny cuz she never likes icky things she calls herself the "delicate flower"..NOT..but she can't wait to see if she has this stuff inside her.

btw...she finally looked past the poo and even noticed that mans icky toes in one of the pics, i missed his icky toes. those photos are priceless.

I just checked the UPS website. My colonix just left Colorado and is scheduled to be delivered on next Tuesday. Gee, if I have only realized that it was being shipped from LasVegas, I would have offered to go pick it up! I do love Vegas!


Now I have got to go to the Colonix website and look for the man's toes... Thanks Nursey!

Hey, maybe the guy had the food in there because he was.................incapacitated. Too strong of tea, perhaps? Although I cannot imagine eating anything while hanging out in any bathroom.

We went out of town today and my stomach was making growling noises most of the time. I had to make an emergency pit stop at a fast food place. No critters to report, but I am so thankful the urge didn't hit while we were on the highway! There is no way I could have held it!

Hope you all who are still waiting get your 'stuff' soon!

Nursey, I expect it is okay to start tonight. I was going to do that when I first got mine but waited anyway.

Hey Everybody.

I just ordered our Colonix yesterday.

Should be here next week. DH almost chickened out but we are going for it.

It's been a week for me. My home was burgularized last tuesday and they stole my computer and other electronics. So I am without right now but I'm at free wireless cafe and I am using my work laptop. So I won't be on as often until my insurance money comes in and I can replace the stolen articles.

It was very traumatizing. I had to fight off depression. They not only entered the house but defecated on top of my toilet and it was just disgusting (but there were no peanuts or ropes in it. I can't believe I thought of you guys and Colonix. It just stank and turned my toilet seat orange!!!!! Had to run to Lowes.) and I felt very violated. I kept jumping everytime I heard a noise. It happened while I was at work and the kicked in the front door. I feel a little better today. I had a security door installed on the front. Luckily I installed one on the back last month. So now I have both doors secured as much as I can.

I have not had time to read all the pages that have added up since last monday. Nursey, any worm sign yet????? Hi Christie, Heather, and everybody!!!

Well I'm going to go.

Shay, I am so sorry to hear about your home being broken into! What a horrible thing to do! I was starting to wonder if you were okay, since you had not been online for a while--but just assumed you have been busy.

I guess it is a good lesson to never 'assume'.

I, too hope your insurance will cover the material losses.

Nothing unordinary to report as of now. This morning I had 3 BMs. They were soft and broke apart whenever I picked them up with the plastic stick that I was using. I'm definitely feeling lighter in the tummy now, but one thing I've noticed is that my lovehandles have gone down alot. There's not a whole lot to grab onto anymore.

I think I need to get another scale bcuz I've been weighing myself for the past 3 days and the scale has read the exact same weight each time...even down to the decimal point. This cannot be accurate. I know that my weight fluctuates daily. The other problem is trying to find a scale that is more reliable without having to waste my money. I now have 3 scales in my bathroom...an analog, a digital, and a body fat analyzer.

Bless your heart Shay! Keep your spirit soaring and your head held high, and remember if you start to feel depressed that you can thank God for your kids and both of you that your safe, that you werent hurt. Things can be replaced.

I know i would too feel very violated and probably have trouble taking my own advise, but it has helped me in the past when i'm so upset all i an think is "why me". Hope it helps.

We loves ya Shay and you've got us for your sounding board!


Ok...as for the colonix. I didnt do it last night cuz i had a major bad eating night. I ate bread ..and kinda lot of it. We went to pappadeuxs and i had seafood fondue..i wasnt going to eat the bread, just the oysters/shrimp/crawfish/mushrooms and cheese...but i popped 2 carb pills and said, ok one piece of garlic toast. Well...before you knew it i had cheese dripping of my face and my nose, i was like a mad woman. Ofcourse once finished with 1/3 of a loaf of bread i felt like CRAP.

i was soooo bloated. The good thing is that today even after all they water i drank last night, i'm still in ketosis, and its still pretty dark. So for the next 2 days its back to meat fast for me. I did the colonix today.

Was i supposed to take one full scoop of fiber (there arent directions) and one paranil at the same time. I used just a cup or so of crystal light and used my whipped cream whipper and whipped it up and drank it fast..it was a little gritty but not thick.

I can not wait till morning. I'm so seeping that tea for atleast 7 minutes. (tho i do go to church, i might skip it to poo)

i hate our scales also. We have a digi that wieghs me heavy and a reg scale that wieghs lighter. Esp with the digi scale i swear i can wiegh myself in the am and by evening it says i've gained like 4-5 lbs. Can be a real butt kicker.

Nursey, you do have an interesting way of putting things. Surely you did not have cheese dripping from your nose!

This is good it did not seem to affect your ketosis. I know it can be tempting to jump in with both feet, but I do caution you the instructions say to use only 1/2 scoop of fiber. It has herbs in it as well, that might cause a bad reaction if you take too much too fast. If the tea is too strong in the beginning, it can cause cramping as it tries to push out old hard poo that the fiber has not had a chance to help soften up yet. Just be careful!

I have once in a while skipped the tea on the night before I will be out away from a restroom all day. With my system, though, just the fiber is enough to get the job done as long as I get back on the program the next day.

I have not noticed the tea effects interfering with church, if I drink it early enough on the previous evening--like 6 or so. Once in a while, I have had it a bit too early and had to make a dash around 4 am, but at least I know the initial effects have occured for the day.
