i am constantly running to the bathroom after i started my high fiber diet,so began to think that the increased exercise was a big cause for weight loss in this diet,is this right?

I know high fiber diets are to prevent constipation and lower cholesterol(sp?), But can it help me lose weight? with exercise, of course.

i have hemorrhoid symptoms showing up. I confess i don’t drink enough of water / fiber intake, and i don’t exercise much. I’ll change all that but I am concerned.

why? because the lump just showed up today for the first time. but before that i’ve been bleeding from time to time everytime i wipe.

please this is a serious question so only serious answers please

I have a borderline internal/external hemorrhoid, and it is driving me crazy.

It’s because I’m 30wks pregnant, and haven’t been able to be very active throughout my pregnancy. My diet is pretty good (not constipated or diarrhoea, regular) and I am getting more exercise – but it isn’t helping my immediate situation.

It seems to be too large to expect to go away on its own, or to reshape back to normal, but it keeps getting irritated and expanding, every time I think it is improving.

I don’t want to take it to the doc, but I am worrying that nipping it off with a rubber band might be the only option for one as big and stubborn as this.

I’ve had it 2 weeks and it is driving me spare.

Help what do I do!

I have lost seven pounds in a week and a half ever since I had suregery and went on a high fiber diet, no exercise, maybe I am eating less could that do it?
