Right after I went off my post-op liquid diet I was very constipated with terrible cramps. I was literally keeling over in pain. Once my body got used to solids the crazy pain stopped, but now 4 months later im still a bit constipated. I eat Fiber one brownie bars, raisin bran Cereal, and try to get in at LEAST 20g of fiber per day. doesn't always happen but I try

I'm one of those who have had this problem as well. I got prescribed Colace, and I take it when I need to, but I don't want to get dependent on it. I put fiber in my coffee, and try to eat bran cereal at least a couple of days a week. It's worked out pretty well!

Yea. Definitely put Water so you can see that your taking it. I plateaued with weight loss for a bit and listened to people on here. Now I stick to 1000/1100 using MyFinessPal app on phone and its working. And it gives you a breakdown of all nutrients. If you don't have it well worth getting x

Just downloaded it, I'm also looking up new recipe ideas and trying to find something I can eat for Breakfast that I will actually like lol x

I'm going to look for better Vitamins and a fiber supplement. At the moment all I take is a Multivitamin bug I don't think it contains enough.

Water in a bottle starting from tomorrow, I may start a diary of it too, so I'm sure to count coffees and such like x

      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'. ???

        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!
