It used to take me just a couple days. What do you guys do?

Hey klipner, do you currently take laxatives the night before your bowel routines? What time in the morning did you do it before and what time are you planning on doing it now? I normally start around 7am and I aim to take my laxatives 10-12 hours prior (night before).

Yessir senna and dulcolax. I'll give that a try, I'm aiming for 6-630am and I usually take my pm lax later than 8pm so maybe the dial back will help

Yeah that's pretty early so maybe even try shifting your eating schedule a bit earlier than usual if possible as well as taking the laxatives earlier. Let me know how it goes!
