Remember, what goes in, must come out. Your whole digestive system has just dramatically changed. Did you really have the expectation that wasn't going to be altered for awhile?

6 days out ... start taking Milk of Magnesia. Every day. Don't stop once things start moving. Continue for a week.

The fun aint over yet ... :)

Im doing milk of magnesia and it works great. I thought that first trip to the bathroom was going to be like giving birth but it went smoothly.

normal poop again???

Amanda626

sure, you'll eventually have a normal "dump" again :lol:

you will have to be on solids for a while

then if all goes well - you'll be back to your normal self :)

referring to bathroom "situations" is a common question/problem amongst NEWBIES

things do take time to settle after major surgery - but you'll eventually be ok :)

As PdxMan corerctly said,

The fun aint over yet ... :)

take care

continued good luck

It takes a while to start pooping on a regular schedule. But it will happen. :)

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
