Um.....me too
So I've been debating putting this update in cause it's embaressing, but whatever maybe this can help out other ladies either now or down the road.
I know I've mentionned that I went for a colonic like 2 weeks ago, and I felt amazing afterwards but that only lasted about 5 days, then my problems returned. I didn't know what to do, so I stopped my diet for a few days and ate only fruits, veggies and protein from shakes, but not as much protein and I normally would consume, to give my disgestive tract a break, yes I'm 6 and 1/2 weeks out from the show, that this is really a big no-no, but I honestly can not take it anymore.
So I went to see a naturopath on Wed, 1 of the best in the this city. And she was like like whoa your intensines are very bloated and irriated, and it's causing lots of extra work on your liver, kidneys, and skin, which is true from the other symptoms that I have, my skin right now is beyond terrible. Anyway she has me making a few adjustments to my diet, and at this point is fine with me as long as I feel better. I will go see her again next week, and have a colonic, she wanted to wait abit to do this cause she wants my body to try and get rid of stuff on it's own. She ade so much sense, and now I know I'm not going crazy.
So yesterday I had to go for my knee appointment, and the therapist is like how does it feel, I said well it still hurts not as bad but it's still there, and he looked confused he was like well it should be better by now,so he asked is anything else acting up, I was like well know, he was like are you sure, what about your hip, ankle, everything internally is good, and I was like well know, I have a irriated and bloated disgestive tract, and he was like hmmm really, so we spoke about that, and he said well let me have a look, so he pressed around in my tummy, I wanted to kick him cause it was painfully, and he was like oh wow, you poor thing, your sigmoid is very bloated and spasmed, also so was the ascending so he worked on it, and he was like continue with what the naturopath told you and maybe we can fix this or help it manually, I was like fine with me, fix me already, he also said it's possible that your sigmoid is actually throughing your knee off, since this is on the left side and it's the left knee also, isn't that just crazy. He said well he'll see, how it goes, and hopefully that's the cause then once the intensines are fix everything else will work fine.
So this morning I went to the bathroom with no struggle, woohoo
it's been awhile since I was able to have a good bowel movement without straining or feeling like hell, so I'm quite excited, lol now let's hope this continues, I know I know too much info, but I'm happy about this!!!
The lesson for today ladies, be very careful with these diets you do, I know which 1 f*cked me up and you can guarantee I will NOT do it again, if you are healthy and not competing I would not totally remove my fruits or veggies, not that I didn't eat veggies, just not enough to make up for the insane about of nuts and meat I was eating at that time.
This is a problem I've been dealing with for months, but it just got to the point that I couldn't take it any longer and I had to finally listen to my poor body. So what I'm saying is that you can take others advice on diet, but please learn how to listen to your body, not only listen but please respond to it. I wish I responded alot sooner, and I don't wish this issue I'm having on nobody it's really not funny at all.

Miss24K, that was an absolutely great post. I can guarantee that it is going to help a LOT of people, and I'm glad to see that you are doing this intelligently and not JUST thinking about the competition. That makes me very proud of you.
IP and I will be thinking about you and send some prayers your way.

Im glad you got it all better and 'out' of the way 
...now when I think about it, I think I have the opposite problem. I go like 3xday...maybe 4...is that a bad thing? I know that too much of anything is bad. I was too scared/embarassed to post about this...but you broke the ice. lol

Well it's not all better, lol but hopefully it will be soon. It's actually a big issue.
And well no 3 or 4 times a day is not a bad time, as long as it's not diarrhea, think about it for a second, if you eat 6 times a day, your body has something to get rid of 6 times a day, not saying you should go to the bathroom 6 times a day, it all depends on how fast you digest your food, what you're eating, how long it sits around, things like that. 3 or 4 times is a good thing again as long as it's not diarrhea.
Oh and Nemj, thank you very much.
Your words mean alot. But I fully intend on doing this show, just not going to compromise my health to do it, so if I have to make some adjustments here and there then so be it. I only have like 5 pounds to lose and that's nothing if this problem is fixed.
