Question Another question about Flax

Hi. This may have been answered already but here goes. I read on the Atkins site that if you were having constipation problems to add 3 Tblsp. of Flax seed a day. I bought a bag at the grocery store and have used 2-3 Tblsp. a day on my salad. Am I using the correct form of Flax? I am using Bob's Red Mill Natural-Raw Flax Seeds. This has helped my problem a bit but has also increased my by calories 160 per day. I have not compensated for this increase in calories. Should I? I have also noticed a substantial increase in appetite, coincidence? I was maintaing 1500 calories a day but lately have been up closer to 2000. Also, I take an Omega supplement called Coromega. Should I count these calories too? Do I need the Flax if I am taking the Coromega? I think I would like to eliminate the Flax and increase my magnesium at night instead. Any input is greatly appreciated!
