Color Depends on what eat. I wouldn't say that droppin the kids off at the pool is worse than before, but the gas is more frequent.... And a tad worse than before.

I've gone once every two weeks since surgery and it is rough. Smell is atrocious.

Yes, I'm doing something about it now.

So true!

Sooo what is your resolution for this?!

I take 4 Fiber advance gummies each day, I typically go every 3-4 days. That took getting used to, because I used to go about 3-5 times a day. Maybe that's why, for me, that it's not much worse.

That, or maybe since I've lost weight, I think my poop dont stink? ;)

Mirilax and chia seeds.

expesially rite after the surgery, even my dr went and shut my bathroom door after lol

No issues here! I take a stool softener but no, um, odor changes. lol

Same here. I think the protein shales make it worse.

So its true u have problems pooping after surgery

Many people do have problems going after surgery. However on the other hand many people also have the opposite problem after surgery. It really is pot luck. Xxx

ok, since someone opened the subject up....I was a 3-4x'r a day...surgery was this past Tuesday the 27th, and um when can I expect to drop the kids at the pool again? and will it kill me to do so?

I was a multiple times a day pre surgery, after surgery, I didn't go for almost 2 full weeks, and I almost cried the first time. If it's been a week and you haven't gone, take some Fiber and stool softeners, then pray. ;)

Yes, pay attention to this as it can get quite painful. I have used Miralax for years, constipation has been my companion for most of my adult life. If you're on soft foods or can do a pudding or yogurt then try chia seeds as well, the combo of the two have given me the best releif I have EVER had.
