Has anybody else had a problem with constipation? I've barely gone once since surgery and now that I'm mostly eating foods with some density I don't think that's healthy at all. I'm not uncomfortable or anything, but I'm starting to get worried. Should take a ex-lax? I bought some colace should I take that instead? Or should I just wait it out?

The problem is that for a lot of us it doesn't go away even after being banded awhile. It's hard to get in everything we need with the tiny portions. Protein first bla bla bla. Sometimes I do veggies first just because there is no room if I don't!

My issues in this area are really vast (gorey details are not necessary)....it becomes painful... however I found this wonderful stuff at the Health Food Store called 'Herbs and Prunes' by Nature's Life. It is the first thing I have found that "fixes" my problems as comfortably as it does. I have found one pill one time per day is working marvelously!!!!! It is my new favorite miracle!!!

Thanks, I will look for that.
