  1. How much Miralax do you take? laxatives can be so harsh.

    Hi, I am 12 days past surgery. I had to call my doctor's office for the same problem. She told me to take the regular dose of miralax. She also mentioned that she has to take dulcolax(sp?) every day. The nurse is had her rny 2 years ago. Hopefully my body will get back onto a normal schedule.


  2. Hello everyone I am still pre op but I am wondering if anyone has had skin removed that went well. I have seen lots of photos and videos regarding extra skin removal and I'm nervous about what's to come post open or should I say post goal weight. Many of the pictures I've seen were terrible jagged scars but some of the shows I've seen are pretty minor. Does anyone have bad scars? Minor scars? Almost no scars? Has anyone lost weight and there's very little extra skin or does everyone get it? Are there things i can do now to prevent extra skin? I know I'm throwing a lot out there but any support is greatly appreciated. Again I'm still pre op I'm 26 5'4 and I'm at 260 my highest weight was 278
