    VSG and constipation

    Thanks the water definitely is key for me as well- I read the replies and was freaking out and made it a point to really focus on water. And water down the protein drinks, eat jello. But I do appreciate the interaction and it helps me substantially. I’m finishing Armageddon now and experiencing a trippy euphoria. It’s nuts.

    That’s cool- I haven’t had such luck. It builds painfully then I eliminate something, and will still have gas n bloating but will have Armageddon aka Rapture the next day, like I’m in hell and it’s a horrible time except I feel brand new an hour or later. I will actually feel high/buzzed in the aftermath like I’ve been drugged. I call it brutal however I’m so thankful it happened! 🙏🙏. Then I’m okay for a couple days, then the cycle starts again. The water definitely helps. I did Kaiser Transform 6 years ago and it started during that. Similar nutrition.

    Advice Needed!

    I had to look it up. A lot of good vitamins and full on carbs at 37. How much on your plan? I think that’s an entire day for me but heavy carbs don’t sit well. Definitely helps that you have it with protein,

    VSG and constipation

    I had my gastric sleeve on 4/14, definitely constipated and was taking the Dulc tablets and aloe capsules, now I've added colace, and have done some Metamucil - a little bit - haven't found anyone saying no during my first month out - I haven't done THE DEED in idk feels like weeks, it's probably a week. I was losing consistently down 34, now I'm up 3 lbs, I've enema'd, I'm eating, drinking plenty of protein drinks (the problem) and now working on as much water as I can - I need to put a count on it, just read 96 oz - how does anyone get that much in - without a straw. i really worked on supplements and enough protein - God I'm hoping water gets me 'Eliminating Again' - it's painful, I feel the rumbling and then gas. We're all in this, I don't want to hear details but this is a serious topic - I'm worried. Had issues in the past with high protein diets. HAS ANYONE HAD TO GO EXTREME with Getting a Doctor or something - I'm thinking colonic therapy - I'm taking everything. And Miralax takes water in your system to help push it out - that's why you're cramping - it causes the muscles to flex and push.
