If you are around week 4 and have not had constipation issues please please try and prevent the experience!!! Worst thing ever, I will take the surgery pain than that.

@Ashlegal, I was the same a few days ago when my NUT asked me if I had experienced any constipation, I told her no, by yesterday I was in distress. She had told me that the protein shakes and iron in the multi can cause it. @Daisee68 I am not on pain pills, it is the 2 protein shakes am taking to meet my goal. I was so sure I was going to end up in hospital that's how bad it was but (TMI) I was saved by Fleet glycerine suppositories. I almost passed out too! I have to take something to prevent it again! @emma4884 I hope it works with fruits and veg... I am only allowed 1Tbsp and no skins on fruits.

Transitioning from full liquids to soft foods not going so well for me! I am not tolerating much other than yogurt.

Thinking about all the people who share their stories here and in some way keep us calm through this process. I appreciate you all.

...That speechless moment when someone starts telling you about a diet they are currently trying to lose weight and asks if you want to try.

Been dealing with sharp pains on my side.. NP says it is the dissolving stitches pulling away from flesh as the internal wound heals.

@Nikikins Thanks! Hope you feel better too. I noticed I felt better longer if I kept the area warm so I will keep doing that.
