Lhiggin 5 Posted July 24, 2012 I have this problem. I was banded Jan. 30, 2012 and didn't have this problem until recently hitting the green zone. I have been 7 days between bm's. I have tried miralax but it just makes me really gassy and cramp. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
adorkbl 156 Posted July 24, 2012 If it has been 2 or 3 days I will drink a cup of coffee. Usually within the hour I go. Sometimes before I finish my cup!! Lol. I just bought the Vita gummies. I will see how that goes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ansoninc 16 Posted July 24, 2012 Milk of magnesia works wonders for me. i have a little pink cup full in the morning when i am filling a bit "off". After i have my morning coffee things seem to be "moving" right along just fine and dandy. 1 kmaas21605 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

missybear 86 Posted August 9, 2012 Guess this is one time in life being lactose intolerant is a good thing. If I need to get things moving, a small cup of milk gets the bowels working! 1 mi_illusion_st reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
