Please read the gut book, its very interesting.  When me and my siblings were  small we were all told to Poo in the morning before school and as we hated the school loos we all did this .  To this 50 years plus  day we all now go to the loo before showering in morning , it happens automatically. I have done this with my children and they do the same so am sure some of its mental - I was fine until I dieted and that upset the  routine and then I got piles , however with a lot more raw veg back on track. :D

Gut book is so informative, and makes reading about this particular area of the body , very interesting and fun too !  I got mine in Sainsburys, think it was only about £3

I am fine and regular unless my thyroid levels are low, which I think they are at the moment as other things point to this being the case.

I learned to 'hold on to it' from a very early age as I was hoiked out of the toilet if my father wanted to use it. On the other hand, once he had left for work I was made to 'sit there until you've been'.  Some times I didn't 'go' for up to 5 days at a time.  The less I went the more I got told off and the more I got told off the less I went.

That's a brilliant price Evelyn considering it's such a new publication - I haven't seen it cheaper than £10!

It's such a good read. Sounds unlikely I know but I hope you all enjoy it as much as I did!

Bought the Gut Book on Kindle yesterday for £3.72 and already read 25%. It is a great read in a fab writing style (glad I did not buy it in French at supermarket yesterday as I don't think I could cope with the translation, lol).

Already I understand so much more about my gut and worrying less about it today. It is just like I understand much more about my brain and anxiety since I read the Ruby Wax book. Knowledge is power.

maybe we could do with starting a MM library where we could share our books  :)

There is a book club thread babyjane and a list at the top of the page (under "more") for books recommended by members?

What's the Ruby Wax book called? Sounds interesting.

I had a good gut book called Gut Reaction by Gudren someone. It does help as I followed parts of her regime and it did help with the IBS at the time.

It's not the same as swapping books though which would mean giving away any anominity that we want to preserve. 

I was a member of 'gut reaction' many years ago ……..
