1. Drink plenty of Water

2. Drink warm prune juice mixed w/ a teaspoon of butter and drink it all at once, it will hit!

3. Check for impaction (this is kinda gross, but check with a lubricated finger preferably w/ a glove up ur bum and see if if you have hard stool there. you can try to manipulate it w/ your finger and pushing to get it out if it is not too painful)

4. Try an enema which you can buy Fleet's enema at any drugstore or Walmart

5. Go to your Doctor. Lactulose is a great solution. Its like a very sweet Jello shot

I love the language in this thread. It is so colorful, lol.

For a good cleanse, I'd go with the enema. You'll feel immediate relief. A year and a half post-band, I still take Miralax every other day... I eat lots of fiber... Fiber one bars are delish, and I just don't go like 'normal' unless I take Miralax.
