  1. It's been 1 week now and I haven't had a BM! I've taken MOM for the past 2 days plus a stool softener and nothing yet! I was pretty regular up until this. I'm 3.5 weeks postop. I don't feel constipated or bloated. And I hate taking the MOM and stool softener though because they make me almost vomit! Yuck! I don't know what to do. I have some fiber that I could add to a shake, but per my NUT, I'm trying to get my Protein from my food and not shakes now. I guess if nothing happens soon I'll have to get an enima.

    I eat sugar free Jello pudding cup and it does the trick. I eat once week and that triggers my bm. Try that.


  2. The scale finally started moving again. I am now 220. I have dr visit tomorrow. Hopefully I will be down another pound. It seems I lose in spurts...long as I'm not gaining. Can't wait till soft foods. Dreaming of chicken breast in cream of mushroom baked. I can't wait. I hope to lose 4 more pounds by next Tuesday so that would make my day.


  3. Focus on the positive and relax....Everything will be fine. remember that no two individuals journey in life is the same. I am almost three weeks out and everything went fine. Everyone has different heath issues that May or may not have contributed to these unfortunate outcomes. Make sure your health is were it needs to be pre op and everything will be fine


  4. do not take it again.....I am allergic to almost all atibotics and I found that out the hard way......I was hospitilized over a month because I developed Steven Johnson syndrome. The Dr. Was trying to clear up an infection I had and kept telling me to take when it was making me Ill. Go straight to your primary Dr when you get home.....good luck


  5. Take no risks with your health. Inform your primary of the issue immediately. My primary doctor held up my surgery due to increased heart rate. He sent me to two separate cardiologists. I finally had surgery two weeks ago. I had everything completed in June. I also have auto immune disease so I have to be extra careful. The approval should be good for 6 months. Also my aunt had gastric bypass and she has thyroid condition. Once it's under control you should be all set. Good luck
