Any thoughts on if this would good for the sleeve. my question applies to a person who is at least post month 6 in order to be past all healing. I used to eat Fiber One cereal all the time (read: every morning) pre op and just loved the original flavor with very little added sugar. I am wondering if there are any unintended side effects like too much swelling, etc. I would love to eat this again as a digestion regulator ( read: fancy smancy for guaranteed daily BM - lol). This would be as a replacement long term for the chia seed / miralax I take daily now, which, by the way, is a good digestion regulator also. One bowl provides approximately 57% daily fiber. Thanks all for your responses.

You know fiddle, I just bought some two weeks ago because BTB, swears by them, they are tasty. Not to much in my Greek yogurt, but with a bit of milk. It was nice to eat cereal!

They haven't caused any bloating or gas problems. But they haven't helped with regularity either (if you know what I mean) truth be told I've only had them about twice each week though.

Fiddle-

Sorry can't help BUT, you look great in that blue shirt! Your wife told us you went clothes shopping....

I think you need to eat a whole bowl (or whole serving) for the fiber to do its magic. And it has plenty of magic to share, believe me.

Thanks!! Yup- I like to shop now that I have real choices and look good in clothes. Who would have thunk??

I ate the full serving (1/2 cup) nada...

But you know I have extreme problems in that area so yeah...

If you can tolerate it, and it doesn't cause cravings, I say yes.

I eat cereal now. Generally oatmeal (1/4 cup raw mixed with 1/2 cup Water and a little soy milk), and sometimes other Breakfast cereals such as Cheerios, Kashi Puffs, or Shredded Wheat. I just bought some Special K chocolate to try for when I want something sweet in the evening.

Try a small serving (maybe 1/2 a regular serving) and see how it sits.

I eat a serving about every third day. I like it and eat it dry or with Greek yogurt. I believe that it really does help.
