I seriously love that my bowels are on your mind.
Will you send me a recipe?
I am a little better now, but it's not consistent enough for my liking.

I make it vegetarian, so you can add ham if you like. I also make it in the crockpot, so I am not sure how long you need to cook it on the stove. It comes out so thick!!

BEST SPLIT PEA
Ingredients:
3 cups dried split peas
About 7 cups water or vegetable stock
1 bay leaf
½ to 1 tsp dry mustard
2 cups mined onion
4 – 5 cloves garlic, crushed
3 stalks celery, thinly sliced
2 medium carrots, sliced or diced
1 small potato, cut in half lengthwise and sliced thinly
1 tsp salt
Lots of fresh ground black pepper
3 – 4 Tbsp red wine or cider vinegar (balsamic would be good too!)
Preparation
Place all ingredients crock-pot. Cover and let simmer on low setting for 8 to 10+ hours until really thick!
Serve with some crusty bread for a warm and hearty meal!

Hope you don't mind me putting in my 2 cents here...

I have found that eating a bowl of mini wheats works wonders!!! I have had a LOT of trouble the last few months and when I ate that cereal it made such a difference!!!

Add away, the more suggestions the better!
I have tried everything and still not normal!
I only eat fiber type cereals (mini wheats, or kashi), drink water all day, eatting more and more veggies and fruit....and still barely anything!

I do have IBS, so I knew this might be an issue.

Awesome- I was a vegetarian until about 3 weeks ago.
And I have been meaning to use my crockpot.
DH will not touch this stuff with a 10 foot ploe, so I will prob be eating it for a month!

I'm normally not a vegetarian, although I like veggies, I love my meat, chicken, fish too.

I was actually surprised that my DH liked it, although he has to accept that soup was dinner....Just soupChat Icon

Re: Preguntas, I found a cure for your "lack of movement"....

it's soooo easy. And to make it easier buy the crockpot liners, so you just remove and throw it out when you are done.

I also use baby carrots, so I don't have to peal anythingChat Icon

OMG those are 2 total me shortcuts.
#1 cleaning sux.
#2 peeling carrots is the worst. I am in danger every time.
I should have my husband peel the carrot- what with all his recent experience waxing his.

That is so funny. I have been craving split pea soup. The other day I told my husband that if it was cooler this weekend I wanted to make it. Chat Icon
