I had never been constipated as badly as I was during week 3 post-op. Since then, I throw 3 prunes into a daily Protein smoothie.... No problems at all. Prune juice should work the same. Glad you didn't have to sleep in the bathtub! LOL

I tried the tea once and while it worked, I did have some minor cramping for a few days. Point is, "your individual mileage may vary" as the saying goes. I use it only when in dire need now. Apparently, going about 4 times a week is my new normal.

I had a cup of Smooth Move tea 8 days post op and 3 hours later I had full blown dumping syndrome. I'm cleaned out now but this tea was way to aggressive for my system. I would use either caution.

I have a cup every other night....Between my sleeve, seizure meds and transitioning to real foods, it's the only thing that works.

I was severely constipated 2 weeks ago and I will never, ever, ever, suffer that again!!

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
