Lol good luck! I was sleeved on 8/14, and I too had crazy constipation, the night before surgery was the worst, also for about 12 days post-op I didn't poop. Had to take a double dose of milk of magnesia and bamm!! I've been good since...

I'm eating a combo of purées and mushy at this point...sort of at a transition point.

A lack of Fiber, I was told is the culprit of our troubles...

Idk about a fiber pill but I've been adding a little Metamucil to my Water bottles and I'm regular now.

I'm in a horrible stall now though haven't lost in about 2 weeks but I upped my Water to 100oz and Protein to >80, and I increased my walking. I'm weighing tomorrow I hope it broke.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      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!!
