    It's too cold for me.
    I suppose I'll just have to remain off-kilter.

    Well, prunes are high in anti-oxidants and potassium. And they taste good. And...

    I agree that prunes will get you right back on kilter, Zen-girl!! I love prunes. How about prune butter? I think you can order it from the Vermont Country Store.

    Or you might try a run--that can get things moving (as evidenced by all the discussion of runners' trots in the running forum...)

    Zen, I bet you could run like the wind (and be immediately cured of any 'irregularity") if you were to encounter "THEM"!!!!I know I would! (have you seen the posting "For Zen"?) Tokie

    I don't think there is any escaping "THEM"

    Well it's true- cycling and exercise makes you healthier and better feeling all over and in every way. My husband bikes as well, and yes it's all a joy to us.

    I was out of shape for years before I started biking and walking 2 1/2 years ago. (I'm 54 now) One of the more interesting benefits I found when I started fitness walking (before I got my bike and was still only walking) is that believe it or not it reduced the times I needed to get up and pee in the middle of the night. That was unexpected and very cool! I also noticed I was no longer sore and 'creaky' in the morning when I got up. Didn't need to 'thaw out my bones' in the morning- now I can just jump out of bed feeling good.

    Well, I don't know if this always applies, since now I seem to be at the point where I am a little creaky in the AM and I need more recovery time from all sports...
    But, I laughed when someone said that we are so uninhibited about discussing this. Once I was with some cycling friends, along with some "regular" friends. The non-cycling people were shocked at the level we were discussing our bodily functions, along with other assorted personal things, like peeing in the woods.
    I even talk about this stuff with my exchange student son, who is a cyclist, but only 23 years old... I have intimate knowledge of his entire digestive system!
