Using laxatives before bed, to relieve constipation AND aid weight loss....any t!
Question: Using laxatives before bed, to relieve constipation AND aid weight loss....any tips?
I was eating a low calorie diet but i was feeling too weak and i over exercised and got a bad cold/cough so 2 nights ago when sick with the cold i decided to have maccas because it always helps my body fight off a cold lol, ANYWAY i felt REALLY ashamed the next day because i gained 1.5kg from the junk food, sooo the next night i took 3 laxatives before bed with a cup of chai tea... and this morning i completely emptied myself out.
I weighed myself and i have NOT gained weight. I weighed myself again AFTER drinking liqiuds, and still my weight is neutral and it appears that the junk food meal i had last night has not made me fatter because of the laxatives.
I take ALOT of multivitamins such as Selenium, Swiss with ginseng, Beta carotene, Vitamin e, Vitamin c, Vitamin A and Kelp plus another multi in the morning with extra potassium, so I wont be vitamin deficient LOL, and I get enough liquids, coz naturally taking all those vitamins twice a day you have to drink ALOT plus i have drinks during the day too.
My question is, If i continued using laxatives (only 3 a night) 6 DAYS of the week to aid weight loss, and to perhaps lose water weight, and help to keep the scale down so I feel encouraged by my dieting instead of discourgaed... could i die or faint or something
Im taking vitamins and drinks, and eating enough during the day, breaky, lunch and dinner and sometimes even supper.
What do you think, is this ok or am i developing laxative bulimia?

Answers:
yes you are. do not use laxitives like that. they are a medicine for when you have constipation. thats it. you need to talk to someone about your food issues.
Did you go to doctor regarding your problem?
