My wife had the same problem when she was on the Medifast, and she was told to take a teaspoon of cannola oil as a "shot".  (Not quite the same as a ****tail though) This helped her very much.  I think it was Ann at the office that told her this.

Call the office for what would be best for you. Here are things postop I have used for constipation..High protein will do that esp if lo carb lo fiber.

Colace OTC stool softner (Walmart brand is fine) one or two a day, miralax OTC now a great laxative I have used daily w/ my MDs permission, milk of magnesia, sennakot natural veggie laxative, slow move tea has this as an active ingredient, flax seed grund if you can start slow with any fiber! Up exercsie up water.....be well.
