Wow thank you everyone. I really appreciate all of the advice. This is a wonderful community. Right after I wrote this I was able to go! It was really painful but I got it out.

Hi All, I haven't had a bowel movement since two days before my surgery. It has been 9 days. I emailed my nurse and asked if I can take Milk of Magnesia, she said yes and if that didn't help to call my surgeon. I took the MOM at about 9:30 pm, it is now almost 2am. I feel so miserable and like I can't even get excited about everything. I'm going to call my surgeon tomorrow if I don't go in the morning. Is this normal? I don't have much bulk, cuz my diet is still liquid which is basically watered down cream of wheat and creamy soups. I start purred food on the 12th. Anyone else go through this? Thank You Everyone!

Hi everyone, I just had my gastric bypass done on 5/30/2018 (last Wednesday). I am on stage 2 diet and it's a lot of liquids. I am also vegetarian, so it's hard to get my protein in. I like Genepro and I was wondering if I could add it to No sugar added "light start" instant breakfast. In my handbook from the hospital it says "sugar free" instant breakfast. I'm just so confused if the "no sugar added" and the "sugar free" are the same. It has 60 calories per packet and 7g sugar. I'd mix it with almond milk. Is it okay to drink? Thanks everyone. I'm new to this site, so i hope I'm doing this correctly! ps- Any vegetarians on here? What ways do you get protein in?

Thank you for the Info!
