    Natural - Dried apricots found at your local grocery in the produce section.

    MiraLax is wonderful if you are in the US and it just came out OTC, a prescription is no longer required.

    Also, increase your fiber intake as well as your water intake.

    Two weeks? Damn...

    Fiber cereal - then get ready for a wild ride. Either that or ginseng tea. It makes you go poop.

    Milk of Magnesia may help too. Tastes horrible, but it is a laxative without stimulant that is more natural, so it is less painful...
