This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

If you ease into it, fiber will give you the best shits. Little logs, no pushing. Ghost wipes are the best.

I've started taking meta mucil and it has been awesome. The bottle recommends 4+ pills 4(+)x a day; but I've only been taking one or two pills a day in total. My poops are super quick and easy now!

Not sure if you're joking, but fibre supplements are absolutely not necessary and a waste of money. It's in everything that grows on the fields. Whole grains, lentils, beans, you name it.

My diet is pretty good but still lacking a little in fiber. I'm taking metamucil temporarily until I have a decent rotation of easy recipes that I actually like for foods high in fiber, then I plan on cutting the fiber supplements. I have literally never eaten a lentil in my life (to my knowledge). So hopefully I figure that out soon

The BBC has some great recipes if you want cheap & easy fibre rich meals. They call it vegan, my health insurance calls it the planetary health diet, others call it whole foods plant based. I don't care, it's fucking delicious!
