  1. Hi, JB ! I'm surprised you can get that much Water down after only 2 months! If it was me, I would stay away from carbs for a while except for leafy veggies that I know, for me, would do the trick. The other thing would be to move.... Get your gut working by shaking it up. But, to be honest, whenever I have had constipation, it has been due to lack of water so I am sorta stuck as to what else to suggest. Best of luck! Dorothy
  2. None of you are mentioning it so I will say it again....WATER!!,! All the fiber in the world will not help you if you to not have something to wash your system with. Water is the key element for combating constipation! You can never drink too much water after bariatric surgery! ...well, you still don't want to stretch your stomach but you know what I mean.... I want to point out, too, how important it is to have an "in person" support group other than here on line. I am not a member of Kaiser but their bariatric support groups, at least here in Bakersfield, CA, allow outsiders to join in. Find one close to home and go every week. It is the best thing you can do for yourselves!
  3. Water, water and more water! And Miralax if needed.
