Help I got piles. Do not know what to eat.



Recommended Posts

Hi!

I have got piles. Been eating proper food for 3 weeks now and finding it difficult to know what to eat as my potty is hard as stone and I now have piles. On medicine for 2 weeks now and my dr. told me to eat alot of fibre and vegetablers. I have been doing as he suggested but with no improvement. Any suggestion??? On a meal plan which is balanced with fibre??? and that your stomach is balanced?? It's very painful

I noticed I get about 0 Fiber a day, so I keep meaning to start back on my benefiber..

I wonder if it takes a little while to regulate you??

I would suggest keep trying it.. and maybe even get some prune juice.

Pain meds can make you constipated.

Post-op, it was a while before my first poo.. I ended up drinking a lot of prune juice one night and it fixed (I was worried about now having bowel movement in so long) .. and I get constipated a lot now, I just let nature take its course now.

Benefiber, add it to absolutely everything from your Water to your cooking. It takes a good month before you'll notice a difference. Keep using it anyway.

In my experience, it takes about four HOURS before I notice a difference with BeneFiber! :peep: Just to show your mileage may vary. It's great advice, a great product, and daily use will prevent any problems.

Four hours? Great! I learn something new every single day here. I've not heard of anyone having success that fast so it's good to know YMMV!

It's a different kind of fiber product and for that reason it can take a bit of time to work but I'm glad to know that it can work quickly. That's great.

BTW, how are you doing with the new band? Everything going well for you?

      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?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
