EllaR 1 Posted May 11, 2015 11 days post op and very constipated. Feels like death every time I try to go. Any suggestions? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
alwayslove 5 Posted May 11, 2015 Mango helps with constipation! You can also try stool colase & make sure you're drinking enough Water. The Protein Powder & calcium/iron are very constipating. Hang in there:) Stool softener** Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Brenda Edwards 2 Posted May 11, 2015 Had the sleeve on 4/8; I started the pre-op diet in February since my husband was having his surgery first. I lost 38 pounds on pre-op diet and last week broke the 50 pound mark! This is something I should have done years ago! So excited with the new me, new energy and ability to do things I haven't done in years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
