intro: i wrote it somewhere once.  but for those who haven’t read, i made mention that i do have a digestion problem. it all started when i drank a slimming tea.  i used it for slimming purposes.  that’s it.  however, i noticed that when i skip drinking it, i can’t move bowels.  i just can’t.  my tummy would be so big if i don’t drink the tea.  i tried a lot of fruits/vegetables that people say will help me but to no avail. and so, i continued drinking the tea.  if my memory serves me right, i have been drinking the tea for 5 straight years. until i had to go back to japan last year, and my mom told me, i had to quit.  i tried not drinking the tea for a week but to my dismay i can’t move bowels, so i end up drinking another aid which is actually just like the tea but in tablet form.

i used to drink a 500mg-tablet a day and it used to work.  when i consumed all the tabs that i brought with me, i had my mom send me more.  she sent me 250mg ones, so i had to consume two tabs a day. until it stopped working. and so, i increased the dosage to three tabs (750mg) a day. 

that said, i consumed all the tabs sooner than expected. i consumed all the tabs just last night and although i asked for another meds from back home, it won’t arrive till may 5.

well, that means, i will not be drinking the medicine for like 11 days.  that means, i will be learning how else could i live without that medicine.  maybe this is enough time for me to finally break my dependency or, to really conclude that my dependency is unbreakable.

and this is otherwise saying that, it could either mean i’ll have a bulging tummy until that day or i’d be glad to finally annouce that i break the relationship i used to have with that medicine.

high-fiber diet.
no junk foods.
no peanuts.
no meat.
just fruits and vegetables.

i have to give this another try. this time, it’s stricker. this time, it’s more serious.

will i make it?  is it gonna be agony? or ecstacy?
