Default Death by Jelly Beans

I found the perfect remedy fot constipation...Carbolite jelly beans! Ate a big handful a couple of hours ago, now I can't stray more than a few feet from the bathroom. They were so good, no carbs, full of flavor, and absolutely deadly. Sorry, got to gooo...

It's the consequences that keep me away from those franken-foods! Thanks for the reminder.

Thanks for the reminder! All I have to do is think of the after affects to avoid them. Not worth it.

What is in those foods that make them do that? I have EAS Advant Edge shakes and they don't have any negative effects.

When I find myself irregular, I drink dieter tea. I buy mine at the local grocery store. It comes in several flavors. It's great at night before bed.
