You should call your doctor's office about this. They can help you, I'm sure. Are you drinking enough liquids? Would you be allowed to have prune juice? May if you diluted it with Water.< /p>

Prune juice is a great natural way of moving things along, or Miralax or something like that .. check with doctors office to see what they recommend.

I had surgery on Mon 2 Jul and its was 8 days before a BM. Even when it happened, it was rather uneventful!

I've been on liquids only since surgery and despite adding some Benefibre to Protein shakes, juice and Soup, i still had no luck.

I spoke to the surgeon at day 7, as well as a mum who is nurse, and both noted with such little fibre in the diet it was going to be difficult. Both recommended keeping up the Water and walking which can help bowel movements. Fortunately i didnt have any specific pain from it (although still uncomfortable post surgery, it was hard to pinpoint if that was the problem).

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
