I had mine on the 17th and I haven't had 1 did the milk of magnesia make me so sick with the taste of it... felt my mouth salivating ...... seems like the whole pre op diet only had 1 first week of the pre op diet.....don't think I've had 1 for a week before the operation.... had a few pebbles at the hospital but I thought that's what is giving me such a bad headache being constipated......but I don't know what to do... guess I'm about ready to get the garden hose daddy says...lol

My surgery was done on the 17th of December and I did the pre op diet for 2 weeks only had 1 bowel movement that first week....... only because I took a laxative .....I'm probably pretty constipated they did a suppository at the hospital that's what I had caused a few pebbles when I got home I did duclox laxatives... today 2 teaspoons of milk of magnesia this morning and still nothing... maybe it's all the drugs I was given in the hospital didnt take that much pain medication was in there for 3 days after the surgery......

Well I will try milk of mag and see what happens! That last BM was when I was in pre op and I think that was because of the antibiotics they gave me!

I had my first one 6 days later and my second one five days after that. I bought some Miralax, but haven't taken it yet.

      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.
