Bowels Not Moving But No Discomfort



Recommended Posts

Sleeved on February 24 and had loose bowels. Had some fish last Saturday and had a liquified bowel movement and nothing since. I have even eaten two cans of spinach. Is it possible my colon is still asleep from the anesthesia? Started at 290 now at 257. But I do not feel constipated just nothing passing through that way.

Not much in and not much out. I did however start adding benefiber to my morning shake to help things along. I did have some Constipation as I do not think that I was getting enough Fiber. As you increase your regular food you will start to have more regular bowel movements. Keep track of when you had the last movement and make sure that is it not too long before the next one. I also have certain foods that seem to want to pass through me faster than others. Guess that is something you need to take note of. I would recommend you taking some extra fiber as this will help to keep you more regular.

      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.
