K sorry to bring this up buuut.... Hows the bowel movements going?? Im 5 days post op and no Constipation. And i know since its mainly liquids in itll be liquids out. But it just feels weird? Almost have to concentrate to let anything out. Very gassy too. Hard to explain sorry. Anyone else?? Its probably my most annoying thing im dealing with.

Yep. No movement here since Thursday (date of surgery). I'm pretty sure it's normal though

I've had nooo bowel moments. I was sleeved the 26th. I'm starting to get worried. I have been super bloated and have some gas that just doesn't want to come out!!

Mine are just dirty liquid for lack of better wording :) but i really have to concentrate and push to have anything come out.

Have you tried prune juice or anything to get things going?

Mine are the same. Liquid mostly, and until yesterday, frequent. Also, decent amounts of gas.

No bm's here. Lots of gas but even that i have trouble passing. It just rumble around, tries to sneak out, then... drumroll please....back up the intestine it goes! Disappointing. Well I had an uterine ablation in June which was nowhere near as invasive and had no bm for 5 days after. And I was EATING. Im not to worried this early out but Im going to call my surgeon tomorrow just to check. Tomorrow will be 5 days post op.

I'm not going to lie I was close. With Easter dinner it was one of the hardest things to deal with. BUT I conquered, removed myself from the situation and had some Water and some ice pops!!! THANK GOD FOR ICE POPS!!!!! I feel right now we really don't have any room for error and we have to be as strong as can be in the beginning!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!

      Today was rough...
      I've been experiencing a headache all day today that just won't go away. I'm thinking it's now progressing into a migraine. Does anyone else get headaches from taking vitamin B12? I did some research and learned that usually a lack of B12 causes headaches. But I've noticed when I take it, I have reoccurring headaches. 😫
