40somethingmum got a reaction from LetGoJo in Constipation
I'm 6 days post op and still haven't pooped I'm taking a prescribed laxative and sipping lots of Water but no joy I suppose that's contributed to me not losing anything post surgery. Please tell me it gets better!

Try Protein Water it has 30g of protein or Isopure it has 40g if protein. I like the apple melon one from isopure. This way you get your liquid intake and protein at the same time. The Protein Shakes mix vanilla with unsweetened chocolate powder and freeze them it taste better that way and you get to cool off at the same time.

Generally the week after surgery, you are on full liquids, therefore your body doesn't really generate poop. So Constipation isn't really a problem at this stage. But it can become a problem after 2 or 3 months.
