Personal question.

I am definitely the odd one out. I have gone everyday since the day after surgery and I am 3 weeks tomorrow. However, this definitely caught up with me as I had to have hydration yesterday (even though I was drinking the recommended amount of water!!).

I'm 2 days post-op and just went a little while ago. Hopefully it continues! I had problems with an anal fissure a couple years ago and NEVER want to go through that again... "like giving birth to a bouquet of razor blades" is how I describe it. I'm going to ask the surgeon at my follow-up next week of I will be allowed to mix in some psyllium Fiber with my Protein Shakes to keep things moving.

I'm almost 8 months out. Constipation has been my biggest problem. I don't want to speak too soon, but it seems to be better. I've lost 99 pounds. Now my constipation is better and I seem to be in a stall. It is always something!! For constipation, I suggest Smooth Move tea. Also Peppermint tea is a good remedy for your while GI tract. Once you are further down the road, you'll be able to eat more veggies and fruits. If you are having smoothies, throw in some prunes. good luck. it really does get easier.
