Can we just chat about this? Prior to surgery my bm's were extremely soft (sometimes with no solidity at all) due to my poor diet and the metformin I was on for PCOS. Post op my poopz are wonderful! I haven't had the joy of taking a gigantic firm poop in over a year and am thrilled. For those of you with little maturity and a similar experience please share :]

I sitll havent been able to completely poop!!! everyonce in a while its more like "swimmers" lol..... i just posted something about that.... what helps with constipation. What have u been doing considering you are able to poop!

Well I don't poop every day and eat a lot of cheese so constipation is an issue, usually I just am in the bathroom for like 20 mins trying. Eventually it just works. Try ti eat more fiber. (Hummus has some fiber)

Thank god I'm still regular in the morning like clock work everyday, I eat a lot of veggies

LOTS of people have that problem with metformin! It is nice to hear about someone that is having positive bowel issues post op rather than problems all the time.

My surgery was may 23rd . Since 2 days post op I've been doing regular solid poops 2-3 times a day like clockwork . Drink your protein shakes and eat protein and you'll go regular. Drink a lot too.
