I'm 3 1/2 months out and never in my life been constipated, I'm constipated and very very uncomfortable, laxatives scare me so i took 2 stool softeners and drank a cup of coffee (even though I'm not supposed to). I've been walking as much as i can with the pain I'm in, and barely was able to bring myself to leave the house to get some prune juice and guava juice (I'm hoping to find some no sugar added guava juice that's actually real Guyana) I just can't believe how painful this is

Try fresh pineapple not canned. The enzyme bromelain in it helps break down the Protein we digest.

Just want you to know I comiserate. Miralax is my best friend. I also take SS every day. Although at the moment I am not having the issue, due to my dumping episode this morning. That cure for Constipation I do not recommend.

It's funny i read your post earlier and thought good I'd love to poop but not cuz of that!!

I just broke down and took some laxatives that are supposed to work over night. My mom have them to me, i said "they aren't going to make me sh** my pants in the night are they? She started cracking up, she's getting a good Kick out of this cuz she's not a regular bm person like i am, she things I'm being a big baby, but damn it, it hurts!! Of course by hurts i mean it's really uncomfortable :-)

      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! 😞
