  • GO GREEN!!!! And I am not talking about the Packers, lol
  • NGMA- I had the WORST Constipation at first, like being in labor and Dr told me to take Miralax AND Senecot. It helps. Of course she ragged on me for not drinking enough Water and exercise. I take Metformin now because I have PCOS and it gives me the runs so I am clear in that area.
  • Artsong and SUPEEP- Congrats. I do a happy dance whenever I break a stall.Had a break in my stall last week but now nothin. ;(
  • CMALONEY- OMG How do you do it? Very good results!!

I know I keep complaining about hair, but now my nails are sooo brittle too. I kicked the door with my toe and my nail completely split.I was picking at my pinky and my ENTIRE nail came off. WTH?? Today I have decided I am going to force this Protein if it kills me. And water too.

Oh, and I ate too many carbs this weekend. Just getting it off my chest. LOL

I know NGMA! I am such a slacker. The Miralax is just a stool softner. The Senecot has a MILD stimulant. That would be good for your immediate relief. Colace is only a stool softner so you may have to wait a couple of days . Poor thing, I totally hate being backed up.

Could always use magnesium citrate...lol that will clear you up ASAP...just have a bathroom handy for a day..so id recommend doing it on the weekend. Ive been constipated too and i did half a bottle and it made me go...not horror stories like you can see...im sure that would have happened if i did the whole thing. Only 2.70 at cvs..i did cherry..its very sweet tho.

***disclaimer***I would only use this as a last resort and i am in no way saying to use this all the time...so no one get snippy at me lol

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
