I take psylium husk fiber everyday. I had cancer about 5 years ago and it ****ed up my insides really bad. They had to cut pieces of the intestine out and re-attach them, etc.
The only way I don't poop blood is if I eat a vegan, gluten free diet, but then what is the point of living. So I try to eat vegan/gluten free most of the week and suffer the days I don't. The issue is the casinos don't offer many options that meet that criteria and I don't feel like packing a lunch everyday.
For a year what I would do is just bet as the limits were raised and go home and bet horses from my ipad in my office so I could regulate what I ate. It was so boring. Most days I would just sleep until noon and watch movies instead of betting, etc. I don't know why, but actually being in the casino makes me feel more productive and it's not as pathetic as sitting in one room all day staring at a computer screen and 10 mounted TV's.
Now I stare at my iPad screen as the pool numbers come in and 37 TV's, but in public.
Also why I make sure to get here at 9am to bet Harrah's Philadelphia Harness even though the pools are only ~6k and a $200 bet moves the lines so much. It's beatable, make a couple hundred that I don't need, but it gets me out of the house.
