Madreof4 12 Posted July 9, 2016 This is a personal question! I'm not having regular BM's! I'm 3 weeks out of surgery! On the pureed/soft stage! I've only gone maybe 3vtines since surgery! Can anyone give me some advice? Is this normal? Sent from my LG-D851 using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
summerebanks 12 Posted July 9, 2016 It's normal. Remember you're hardly eating anything...not much to get rid of. I take an aloe leaf capsule at night now and again and like clockwork the next day, success! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Madreof4 12 Posted July 9, 2016 Thanks summerebanks! Can I get those from Walmart? Sent from my LG-D851 using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
summerebanks 12 Posted July 9, 2016 Probably...they are called Nature's Way aloe latex and leaf extract. We don't have a Walmart where I live so I had to order from Amazon.< /p> Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
madadams 130 Posted July 9, 2016 I'm 5 months out and have really struggled with Constipation. This week my dietician told me to add flaxseed to my Breakfast. I have a teaspoon every morning and have been easily every day!

Julie norton 2,850 Posted July 9, 2016 I choose to drink Smooth Move tea in the evenings.. This slow moving digestive problem seems to come up for many. Others have different ideas on Probiotics and such. Best of luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
