Default Day 7

Hello all,
I am finishing up day 7 of my induction. Definitly feeling my energy coming back. Boy was I tired those first few days. The constipation is horrible, and I havn't gotten any fiber cause the store is so far from me I only go once a week. I lost 5 pounds the first three days, and havn't lost since. I havn't had any carbs at all (except the small amounts in cheese, eggs, ect.). Definitly getting creative with my food.

Questions:
What type of fiber laxitives should I get? I'll be shopping at wallmart.

Is there such a thing as too much cheese? I've been eating a lot of it, maybe that's why I stopped at 5 pounds?

I am still getting some dry mouth and some shakey hand syndroms from my hypoglocemea, how long did this take to pass for others?

Is there such a thing as too much water? I am LITERALLY drinking 2-3 gallons a day. This is not an exageration, perhaps even an understatement.

On the bright side of things, like I said, I have more energy now that day 7 is almost over, and I have no more Heartburn/acid reflux! yay!

Thanks for all the support on the boards,
-Chad
