maggie4778 22 Posted May 8, 2012 Hey I was sleeved April 17 And I have the same problem, but it's normal because we are lacking Fiber in our diet!! My doctor prescribed me stool softners and they seem to work!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ANicole1022 2 Posted June 4, 2012 I'm 4 days out of surgery and have had 2 big bowel movements, that is making me scared because I'm not eating solid foods yet. I'm still on liquids! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lmp817 7 Posted June 4, 2012 I was also sleeved on April 16. I have had the same issue. My doctor told me to use milk of mylanta twice a week to keep me regular for a while until I am able to get more fiber my system. It is horrible tasting but it helps. And it is not as painful as stool softners. Stool softners make me cramp and it is super painful. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
