a topic no one wants to talk about :/ sorry
my surgery was on monday and yesterday was when i finally started pooping, i been pooping non stop since yesterday with diahrea like symptoms :/ i look very pale and i felt dizzy all day. i have taken my vitamins and my shakes,soup, jello, popsicle and diet snapple and nothing helps... i need some advice on what 2 do, im very scared
BTW, I think no one is adding any more advice here because Maria F. said it so well! HYDRATE

my first week i was still having a lot of diahrea they said that bc i had to drink that whole bottle of laxative pre-surgery to clean out it would still be kickin my butt for that week. also u arent making shakes with milk? everyone tells me dairy products are a huge no-no for atleast a few months. just make sure u stay on water, and trust me it stops and then comes the constapation. im three weeks out and everyday has been very hard but seems to get better a bit each day.... good luck :}
my surgeon actually recomend i have skim plus lactaid with the shake 3 times a day, problem is im so full from drinking 3 ounces :/ and im not getting enought fluids. i got some gatorade but and trying to get those 4ounces every hour... i am a week out tomorrow and i feel awesome... i love my band!!!!
