I had two bad days with Constipation and decided it was not something I wanted to deal with. Who wants to trade being fat for horrible hemorrhoids? So I stocked up on the Miralax and accepted it as being at least an every other day thing. Then I spoke with a friend from college I'd not talked to for a year. She had gastric bypass and suggested I start taking MegaRed.

I'm not suggesting anyone take this stuff w/out checking with their doctor. And if you have allergies, know that it's a fish oil. But this stuff has worked great for me and I believe in the power of Omega 3 so it's a win-win.

It's Omega 3 Krill oil in small pills that are easy to swallow. I take one a day. It's been 2 weeks Miralax free. It's not that I minded the miralax, but I think this is a more beneficial mix for me so just thought I'd put this out there for those who have the chronic problem. Might be a fix for someone else too.

Once I started drinking my coffee again everything was just fine LOL. ;)

My old college roomie used to walk to McD's for a Big Mac. Five minutes after she got home, all was well. But alas, those days are over.....:P

I could be on my dying bed before I have another glass of gatorade or a sip of miralax...

TYVM!

to get through the process, I was required a Colonoscopy...

well Constipation ain't my problem... not sure if anyone else has had this-

I blow the tidy bowl guy away, I mean one big diarrhea and that's it...

I am only a week out and eating, well gumming, jello/pudding/soups/applesauce... so I guess it comes out like it goes in???

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      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.
