Questions-14 days post op

Hi, everyone!

I am 14 days post op and started stage 4 today introducing puréed foods.

I have lost 16 pounds since surgery, but the scale hasn't moved in 3 days, and I honestly don't have the feeling of needing to go.

I haven't been able to use the bathroom in 10 days and have been taking senna and Fiber stuff the last 4 days. Is this normal or what should I eat or take to help me?

Sometimes I feel I am eating to much, most of the time I get half a cup or so in of something and it sits in my throat for 30mins is that the full feeling people have mentioned? I can eat yogurt, applesauce, oatmeal and I can easily eat the entire yogurt and not feel wicked full.

Just making sure I am on the right track, thanks in advance for responses.

I am 4 weeks out and eat 1/4 cup. That is what my surgeon said to do. Maybe you should try to eat a bit less. If I eat more then that I get the throat feeling too. For the potty thing I used the Fleet bulb suppository and it worked great.
