Activia yogurt, not for me

I bought Activia by default. The grocery store was out of my usual Stonyfield organic yogurt so I picked up a quart of Activia.
Next day...one emergency squat in the woods for an episode of explosive diarrhea.
Then 3 days of constipation.
Then 3 more days of pushing way to hard for very little results.

I'm back to my usual yogurt now and things are getting better.

Consider this a public service announcement.

Some other people have had similar results.

Dawning of another day

My work project has finally become a bit less intense so I've been able to enjoy some evening bike rides and exploring new routes out into the countryside. Oh sure, I still get up at the crack of dark like most of you and the morning sunrise is a welcome sight. I do like these long summer days.
