Surgery was Monday and I've still not had a bowel movement. I haven't been able to eat much so it doesn't really concern me but I'm Wondering how long it usually takes. When should I become concerned?

New Sleeve Chest Pain
Branmuffin replied to Blondi418's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Twp hours ago i took a couple chewable gas x. An hour ago I got a bottled water (room temp) and added a little fruit punch mio flavoring to it and have been able to sip it without the pain. Fingers crossed! Hoping its the beginning of my better experience! -

4Th Day Out And Still No Bm
Branmuffin replied to Branmuffin's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I still haven't been able to stomach too much liquid so it's not really a big surprise that I'm not having any BM. My surgery was Mon and everything is still pretty much gagging me. Even water at this point seems to bubble back up. -

Rating protein powders
Branmuffin replied to Oregondaisy's topic in Protein, Vitamins, and Supplements
I've not seen anyone mention smart protein at complete nutrition. My dr referred me to use it because its so low in sugar and sodium. I mix it with 4 oz water and 4oz vanilla coconut milk and its awesome! -
Surgery Tomorrow 11/11/13
Branmuffin replied to lenaoli's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I had my surgery 11/11/13 here in Arkansas and have nothing but admiration for the staff of the hospital. I have had bad issues with gas and nausea and am still working through them but am so optimistic about the next few weeks and the weight loss! I cannot wait to really start this journey back at work and in my normal routine. -

I think gas is my biggest enemy right now causing the nausea. Looking forward to it passing. Gas Meds aren't helping. -
I did suck only ice chips first day and had such bad nausea that they kept me drugged up and were going to make me stay another day. Now I wish I would've stayed longer on the IV because I can't stomach the Meds.

Surgery Was Today - First Steps Literally And Figuratively
Branmuffin replied to SkinnyScarlett's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Take Chapstick! It was a must for me. -
I had the sleeve Monday 11/11 and everything is making me nauseaus. I keep getting very painful hiccups and the pain Meds won't hardly go down for the nausea either. I've tried 4 different broths and sugar free jello and isopure. Isopure is almost instant gag reflex now. Waiting for the sun to shine again...

I have been using Smart protein by Complete Nutrition in Vanilla and mixing it with 4oz water and 4oz coconut milk and its wonderful. I haven't seen it mentioned here though?
