    awheezy13 got a reaction from Dametris in Constipation?   
    I am three weeks out from the surgery. My doctor advanced me to soft foods after one week and I've slowly been adding more and more (approved soft foods) to my diet. I got tired of Water so I switched to watermelon water and started having horrendous diarrhea.
    Well I emailed my team at the hospital and they told me to stop the watermelon water, so I did. Everything was fine until today when I realized I haven't pooped IN SIX DAYS.
    So what are some safe stool softeners?
    Thank you!

    awheezy13 got a reaction from catamountchic in Hormones!   
    Okay TMI and I am so sorry but I got my first period after surgery today and my hormones are WHACK. I mean, they've been off since I've been losing weight but not like this. I literally cried because I didn't like how chicken salad smelled. I cried because I didn't like the flavor of Mio I bought.
    Has anyone else had a similar experience with hormones? I'm worried I'm gonna cry if I drop my pen at work tomorrow LOL!

    Hi Amy! I think you are very brave! I’m 26 so not that much older than you and I had it on oct 13th. I think you are very smart to have gotten it earlier. You are young so you will bounce back faster! You have young skin too! During stage two I ate and still eat a lot of puréed Soups. And it’s the perfect season for it. If you don’t feel like making it yourself, Panera has a butternut squash Soup that is to die for. I don’t know where you live but if there is a wegmans with you they have a pumpkin soup that is delicious. Basically any soup that is smooth. So Tomato bisque works too. I also drank Vitamin water zero. I mixed unflavored Protein Powder into the soup so that I could at least try to meet my Protein goal. I hope that helps! I’m not familiar with dumping. Unless you mean taking a dump. In which case my bowel movements have been normal. I hope that clears up for you! Wishing you the best!
