Am I the only one?? That thinks a bowel movement during phase I post op is freakin amazing ??‍♀️[emoji1440]‍♀️[emoji846]? OMG [emoji50] I’ve never thought I’d miss it sooo much (whew)!! Possible TMI?! But I’m sure I’m not the only one???

Sleeved 2/6 and no poopies. Lol. I can’t wait;)

The poops [emoji90] are coming [emoji1474][emoji1474][emoji1474]

Me three days post op: “Dear God, will I ever poop again?”
Me six days post op: “Dear God, why is there a waterfall coming out of my butt for the forth time today?”
I am learning to be careful what I wish for, that’s for sure [emoji38]

I had my sleeve surgery on 2/6 and haven’t been able to poop yet. I did finally start farting today and even that was incredible! I swear I heard the Hallelujah chorus!

Yes!!!! The poopies are simply heaven!!! ???? Congratulations on ya gas releases [emoji100][emoji947]

You almost get emotional and teary eyed when it happens. You feel like giving an acceptance speech!

Yes!! And this goes out to the poopies lmao [emoji38]

You’re my sleeve twin btw [emoji847][emoji847][emoji847]

I pooped!!! I THINK??? 4 days of colace and finally milk of magnesia. I’m not exactly sure what came out of me, but I will assume it was poop.

Lmao [emoji23] it works!!! Congratulations [emoji323][emoji322][emoji898][emoji324]

Oh dear God. I finally pooped last night and now I can’t stay out of the bathroom for more than two hours. Be careful what you wish for!! [emoji90]

High protein, low fiber, low liquids, pain meds - all = constipation. Make sure to get plenty of liquids, and walk! Walk walk walk walk walk! I would stay away from meds to help you, unless your surgeon approves. Mine told me to stay away from everything but colace and milk of magnesia. Colace first try - if that doesn't work, then go with the milk. Thankfully I only had one real bad day and I won't go into the details on that.

I'm 14 months out and still get excited when I have a good BM!
