What part of my diet probably caused constipation?

I understand that this is the very definition of Too Much Information but I just had a very unpleasant five days. I dont know what caused it and Iwant to avoid having this happen to me again. Heres a list of how I generally eat. Im a healthfreak in many ways so Im very consistent. Breakfast: A Yoplait Light FatFree Yogurt a Thomas Bagel Thin with Weight Watchers cream cheese or a poached egg and a Thomas MultiGrain English muffin. With either berries rasp blue or black or a banana Lunch: Bread Thin 2 oz lean turkey one slice of Weight Watchers American cheese Either a bell pepper cherry tomatoes or sugar snap peas Two servings of fruit. I vary every day between honeycrisp apples nectarines plums pears and bananas. Dinner: Usually a 4 oz. chicken breast prepared in some different way. I initially worried that my recipe this week which included hot sauce was the cause but I dont know. 3 servings of fruit usually including frozen grapes: green or red 2 servings of vegetables usually the same ones that I eat for lunch but this week I ate a lot of carrots 1 Skinny Cow ice cream cup or ice cream sandwich I also have a love for candy corn. I had some this week to celebrate the fall. About a serving: 13 pieces. Misc. I do drink coffee but I try to limit myself to one small cup per day. However I suffer from insomnia which is selfperpetuating because Im exhausted because I cant sleep so I drink coffee to stay awake during the day and then I stay awake etc. It was a particularly bad week for my circadian rhythms so one two of the days I drank two cups of coffee. Caffeinated beverages in general are my vice. I drink diet soda but mostly its just an unsweatened green tea every day. I also drink a lot of water but maybe not enough to offset the dehydrating effect of the coffee and tea. All of produce and lunchmeat is organic. I think I might be eating too much dairy because Im trying to balance how much fruit and veggies I eat with protein and Im not a big meatlover. For a few days this week I ate two bananas. I know they can be hard on your stomach. Anyway I know this is long and TMI but I would really appreciate any advice about how to ensure that my diet doesnt cause me further discomfort.

Women what do I do with this long post?

Ok here is the situation. My wife and I have been married 19 years we love each other and have 3 great kids and have been through a lot during our marriage not problems with each other but have taken on any and every challenge life can throw at us and can out on top. So anyway things have been tough financially for the last 11 months or so I hospialized and had a successful business fail and money has been tight. I have worked a grave yard shift at a nightclub here in vegas for the last 8 months and a crappy day time job to make it work. So not a lot of time. There has been zero intimacy in 7 months. Not for lack of trying on my part althoug i have not pushed to issue hard kind of just disgusted and alomost gave up to the point where it scares me a bit because I have alomst lost interest in her sexually i forever though she was the most beautiful sexy women on earth now... I see faults I never saw. Anyway she was never very sexual but was always loving and still is for the most part. She is stressed a bit because the money is much tigher than it was. I told her lacking intimacy and being cold is not helping at all in fact it just becomes one more problem on my plate and adds a bit of self doubt not much I AM PRETTY CONFIDENT IN MY SELF. I have never cheated on her and have had many opportunities but never ever came close. I am sure she is not cheating also she just has an ability to shut down emotionally and be cold not to just me but to everyone. I make efforts to show her I love without any strings attached little thoughtful gifts touches kiss and on and on . And do thoughtful things to show my appreciation I am not a push over though begging and making her feel pressed or myself look pathetic. She does not want to talk about it and does not want any date nights all tide to money she thinks it would be money not needed to be spent. It has gotten to the point where last night at work this girl or actually women about 30 or so was leanign into me pressing her chest against me to talk it is very loud and crowded and I got fully aroused. She knew what she was doing because she put he hip in my crouch and could tell and continued doing it when I plled back. She can back later but I just completely avoided being near her because i was at a point where I may have given in and went along with her. Any way what to do?

Asked by Al Bundy about Marriage Divorce

That must be really hard especially because you work at a nightclub. Well even though she doesnt want to talk about it she has to. Another option would be to see a couples therapist but you are tight on money so I dont think that will work. You need to be honest with her and she needs to listen. You need to tell her that she needs to open up to you and you two have to put the time aside to spend time together and remember who you are together as a couple. You said that you cant go out on dates because of money but there are things you can do together that are free. Go on a walk at sunset. Pack a picnic. Light some candles at home. Overall you just need to be honest. You need to tell her that you are struggling that you love her but because she hasnt been showing any interest in you in a long time you are beginning to lose interest in her which is NOT something that you want. You two have been married a long time which is an achievement. There is no reason to give up now. You two can survive this together it just takes communication. I hope she is up for it. Good luck.
