You should try the aloe pill which can be opened up and put into your liquids or the aloe juice. It's great and makes your body work the way it is supposed to without drying out your system like a laxative. Plus there are no accidents and you don't cramp up like laxatives do. The aloe is a great herb and I highly recommend it!! Hope all goes smoothly for you!! Happy holiday!! Liz

Do you and your husband ever have date night? I find that when my husband and I sit down at dinner out somewhere we tend to listen to each other more than we would at home. Or maybe take a walk just the two of you? Have you explained to him how it makes you feel when you have to go to the gym and stand next to the skinnies? How would he feel? He must know how cruel some people can be. I did pilates with a bunch of Barbie dolls and these ladies can also be cruel. I'd cry when I left each day. Don't forget to check out ebay and there are lots of used exercise stores!! I hope all works out well for you.

After reading some of the feedback, I noticed folks have ports in different parts of their body. Do the doctors let you pick where you want it and if so what area do you think would be the best for the port? I assume you wouldn't want it to be in a spot that would get rubbed by a waist band or under wire bra. Any good advice?:rolleyes2: Maybe I'll have it put on my husband!!

I would think like most things as long as you don't take too many at one time and follow directions it shouldn't be a problem. You might want to ask your pharmacist or a holistic person or the person at the Vitamin Shoppe. Good luck. I would think it's more natural than most things. Don't forget depending on how bad off you are it might take a few days. But you can pretty much count on it after that!! Liz:biggrin2:

After years of taking a laxative to go to the bathroom I now go on a regular basis because I take 1 or 2 Aloe pills a night at bedtime. When I wake up there is no rushing to the toilet and if I forget a day I still go the next day. It's a Godsend! It might take a few days to work depending on how backed up you are. I had colonics a few times and the lady that had that wonderful job told me about it. She said even babies can take it but to check with the doctor first. Most folks don't know about it and it's also cheap. One bottle at the Vitamin shoppe cost $7 for 90 pills. You can also get it at Walmart and stores like that. If you can't take the pill there is the aloe juice that sounds pretty nasty to me but I suppose if it were mixed with something or put in your drink it would work. I haven't had the surgery yet but hope to the week of July 7th. I have been taking it for years now and haven't been let down yet. I love that I don't cramp up or have to rush to the toilet!! Let me know how it works for you if you try it. I promise great results and the lady said that it makes your body do the work it's supposed to do in the first place instead of sucking out all the fluids in your body like the others do. Good luck! I've been there and it's miserable!! Liz:biggrin2:
