hi everyone, i had my VBG done on 4/18/06, i am 2 1/2 wks out and i already lose 33 lbs. i am feeling good and trying to get use to this new small stomach, i haven't felt a hunger pain yet, but i am trying to get my liguids in. i am finding that i am constipated alot, what can i take to help with that? well, i will update again in 2 0r 3 weeks. for now bye.

Hey there Tina, Congratulations to you and welcome to the OH Family. I wish you all the best on your journey to the loser's bench. Congrats Hugs KimC

Hi Tinna, Glad your doning so well. Geting your fluids in will help as far as the constipation goes. Your still limited as far as food choices this early after surgery so you may want to give your Dr's office a call to see what they suggest. A little later on in my surgery I added flaxseed to my diet and that helped. Rememeber, getting those fluids in is very important! Take Care and keep up the great work!

thanks so much for your help, i will be asking questions from time too time. i did speak to the dr. office, they told me to take milk mag. (nasty stuff). i will give an update in a couple of weeks.
