You can eat nothing for two days but still do poops. I wonder why? I wonder if this is what they call "scouring". I much prefer health food but if you're stuck, try a good strong iced coffee. @ m simms: prune juice gives runny poops. tut-tut IceBreak Iced Coffee gives multiple poops from out of nowhere.

A few years ago a doctor had tried to freeze warts off my fingers but it didn't work. In desperation I taped banana peels to my fingers and went to bed. Perhaps my negative experience comes from finger tips being one of the most sensitive parts of your body (GP told me). The agony of the banana peel taped on my fingers for a prolonged time was something else and there was no way I could sleep so I gave up. The huge wart hurt the most. It turned the huge wart on my pinkie a little sloshy but it was still very much there. The warts had to be cut out in the end, lol.

I am a type-1 diabetic (auto-immune disease). I eat bananas fairly often and find that compared to processed starches my insulin requirements are less for bananas even if the carbohydrate value is the same. For example 1 banana is approximately 15 grams (depending on size and ripeness)and half a slice of bread is about the same depending on what type of bread. For the banana I take 2 units of insulin whereas for the bread I take 4 units. Anna is correct about high insulin levels affecting weight control. Less insulin is better for you and high insulin rates cause weight gain, which then in turn leads to a need for More insulin. Vicious cycle there. They key to everything is moderation. If I was stuck only eating one fruit ever again, it'd probably be bananas. Bananas are a healthy fruit. I am a type-1 diabetic (auto-immune disease).

I am personal trainer and have always used exercise as a means to battle the excessive food intake, but there comes a time when activity and exercise can become excessive also. When that happened to me, I decided I would start logging everything I eat...then I decided I'd start blogging everything I eat. Everyday I log my intake and breakdown of macronutrients on our business Facebook page, Comfy Fitness. My goal is to experiment with these sorts of "tips" and see what works for me and what doesn't. I talk about my experiences and obstacles. I succeed and I fail. Check it out if you want the comforting feeling that you are not alone. It is a struggle millions of us deal with, and having a forum and accountability is a big help. Have a great day! Overeating is something I struggle with almost everyday.
