When I bought a new mattress two years ago, I started using a waterproof mattress pad. I have not actually soiled my bed in the way you have mentioned, but post-op for the first three months I had several close calls in racing to the bathroom. I had Constipation as soon as I started soft foods, and I think I overcompensated with the laxatives. I just was afraid of having to push a watermelon through a straw again. At 15 months, I am still trying to find the balance. This I do know, that Miss Tummy is the boss of me, and if the queen of my gastric universe is displeased, she will make me miserable for at least four hours. She keeps me on the straight and narrow.

Have you tried Benefiber? It works great for me (per my dietician), everything is regular, no surprises, and I get it very cheap (SHOPKO brand). It takes a few days to work, but I take it every morning with my Protein beverage (I throw in my Calcium citrate, also), and now it is just a routine. Have a great day!

I feel this is a fake blog seeking attention!!

This seems pretty rude and uncalled for. The op has been a member for a while now, why would you even say something like this?

I eat broccoli no problem, but then again I seem to have the tummy made of steel. Perhaps try something a bit gentler like chopped spinach? I find adding it to my Protein keeps me full longer and still satisfies my craving for veg.

The only other suggestion that I can make (as someone who has also been on xanax before), is that the xanax is relaxing you to the point that you are not waking up to your body's signals that you need to go to the bathroom. Its possible you may have been mostly asleep and unaware you pushed out a fart, and coupled with the broccoli possibly being the cause of the loose stools, it created a mess.

Sorry to hear you are going through this. I did this twice within the week after surgery and my poor boyfriend insisted on helping clean it up both times. So embarrassing! Hope things start getting better for you!

Problem hasn't happened again. I eliminated my favorite veggie. :(

      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?

      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.
