So I went for my fill and was weighed and was up a lb! I was so annoyed, depressed, irritated.... 24 hrs later I realized I was seriously constipated (Sorry I know its TMI), here we are 2 days later and I am down 3 lbs! WTH! I was literally full of crap! LOL!

Who Knew?! CRAP could make such a HUGE difference! :P:wacko::rolleyes::o:blink::D

My doctor gave me 2 prescriptions. Colace, (liquid) I put in my Protein Shake every morning and Miralax (powder) I put in my hot tea every afternoon.

Nothing like a good BM to make you feel better.

Well since we are talking TMI,,,I used to be a once a day person in the morning fresh out of bed. Now, if I am lucky I will go twice a week and sometimes just once a week and it is not one of the satisfying ones either. On the flip side it's not like I have to go and cannot. I just don't have to go all that much anymore.

My doctor recommended a dose of Milk of Magnesia followed by a hot liquid and within 30 mins, things were smooth going, no cramping, just natural urge to go. Hey, I was thankful for his advice after 4 days of no go!!!

Once Twice sometimes Three times for this lady!

Depends on how many vegies and H2O I have in the day. Being full of SH*T is not for me :)

every 5-6 weeks I have a terrible pain on the upper left of my stomach. I had a CT scan today and I'm waiting for the test results. But according to my Dr., She believes that I'm just full of SH*T. I'm hoping she's right!

I got my CT scan results back today, and My Dr. was right. She wants me to increase my Fiber intake and thats good news for me. They can find nothing bad going on.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
