    It was recommended to use a stool softener instead. The other stuff retains additional water in your stomach to create a movement.

    No, I don't have to take additional shots. Were you on a blood thinner before procedure?

    I also received the shots in the stomach while in the hospital. It's a pretty common practice, helps to prevent blood clots. I was sleeved on July 29th. I've had very little if any major issues other than the typical - drinking water, intake of 70-80 grams of protein.

    Manda I was also sleeved on July 29, my total weight loss has been 26lbs. The scales have stopped, could this be a stall? I've tried bake chicken and mashed potatoes, felt full after 3 small bites. I've gone back to my shakes at least they don't make me feel stuffed. There's a local deli that make chicken tortito Soup with small pieces of chicken. I've been successful with it; of course puddings and Jello.

    . I'm almost 3 weeks post-op. I've been told that what you are describing is a sign of not enough water/fluids. My doctor suggested using Myralax Or a stool softener. I prefer Myralax.
