I was told a cleanse would help me n I kno it would I just don't kno what to try I had a colonoscopy done over six months ago n was six pounds lighter I kno it not the reason why but I am so emotional right now I don't know what to think or feel.

You haven't been to the doctor in 5 months? You need to go and discuss the issues you're having and get a fill....or maybe an unfill. If it's too tight you're not going to lose any weight either. Lap band requires consistent follow up.

Make sure you are drinking at least 80 ounces of Water a day. I can almost guarantee that will help with the Constipation. Drug store remedies do not work properly unless you are drinking more water than usual.

I hope it gets better soon!

If you haven't had a bm in almost a month you NEED to call your doctor. Maybe you have a blockage. Please call them.

try drinking Smooth Move tea (traditional medicines). I drink a cup a night and it helps me go. I may not go the next day but the following day I will go. I have the same problem.

You haven't had a BM in a month AND you have severe heart burn, and you haven't seen a doctor??? You must have an incredibly HIGH tolerance for pain. I am sorry you are going through this, please see your doctor asap.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
