BlueGirl1920 94 Posted February 27, 2018 Week 5 has been rough. Dealing with the worst Constipation of my life. Haven't lost weight. The reality that this is permanent is really setting in now. I am still basically on liquids because I can't chew with these turbo things the dentist put on my teeth when I got my braces, to keep my bite open. It is hard to be out running errands and see all of these fast-food restaurants and realize, I can never eat there again. I had been out running errands for several hours yesterday with nothing to eat. I had to get gas and when I went into the convenience store I was lucky enough to find a muscle milk Protein Drink. I was kind of proud of my purchase as I thought of how easy it was to pass up junk food. Small wins really help.

Charity G 46 Posted February 27, 2018 Yay for making a good choice! As for the Constipation, have you tried Miralax? I've heard it is a lifesaver for bariatric surgery patients. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
