BM Ecouragement (Yes, this is a 'bodily function' post!)
I've used a laxative once in my adult life on the evening before wls. I can't remember ever using one as a kid. I'm a newbie to the world of 'bm encouragement'.
I feel like I need a good clean out. I'm not sick or constipated, but lately I feel like I'm not quite emptying out. Post op I've gone from regularly scheduled daily bm down to sporadic 'bm lite'. I know I eat a lot less, still I'd like to encourage anything that's just hanging out to leave without a totally disgusting experience.
Any reccomendations?

soooo....when it is imperative.....~looking around and ducking~ I take internal flush at night....drink water, water, water, and COFFEE the next day and VIOLA!

That's an immediate fix....for long term.....if you can stand it....add some fiber to your water....drink plenty of water....and some warm diluted apple juice....this should keep you regular.

When I was extremely constipated the liquid mag citrate helped tremendously!
