stacispradlin reacted to Jazzzyjay in 4 days post op-No bowel movements
Im 6 days post op and just had my first BM finally. I've been taking mirilax, milk of magnesia, colace. If I didn't have a BM today my Dr was going to have me do an enema. Guess that was enough to scare the shit out of me lol

You've lost 21 pounds in a month plus 2 days. That isn't slow by any means. You shouldn't compare yourself to others (even though that is easy to do) since everyone's journey is unique and there are a lot of factors that make it a very apples-and-oranges situation.
This journey is a complete lifestyle change and transformation, so you're in it for the long haul. Just stay on your plan and the weight will come off as it should, but in its own time.
Good luck!

I would recommend taking miralax every single day. If you go too much longer without a bowel movement and you start having discomfort, you should try Milk of Magnesia. It works wonders. Just don't forget to take miralax/benefiber/Metamucil (something along those lines) every single day.
