Miracle! Solved my chronic constipation.

 
I have had major problems ever since being banded. Diet didn't do it for me, I had to take both added fibre AND a stool softener every single morning and every single evening.. Without it I would have ended up in ER.  it really was that bad.

Since maintaining ( four years now) it hasn't been quite so bad. I take the fibre and the softener every second or third day.

Now I know that things like Kellogs AllBran help. But I find them literally inedible.

Last week I was given a free sample box of Kellogs AllBran Golden Clusters. Being free, I tried it. No details but I have had a normal BM every morning since. This is wonderful! (the things thst make me happy!!)

It's not a low cal breakfast cereal but neither is it too bad. A 45 gm serving with skimmed milk is about 250, but it could only eat about 30 gm anyway. But the main thing is it is edible unlike normal AllBran.

I assume we have the same brands.

I am assuming we th same brand names here!

Kate,

I'll be on the lookout for the All Bran Golden Clusters. I can always use some help in the elimination department.

Your post reminded me of my arrival in the UK in October 1970. One of my coworkers had a 15-year old daughter who bombarded me with questions about life in the USA.  She asked things like:

In New York, are there gangsters hiding in every rubbish bin?

Is it true that Americans eat steak for breakfast every morning?

Do you have Kelloggs cereal in the US?

 Now Jean! Don't get sarky! Yes, I know Kellogs is American!!! But we call things different names sometimes!!! Like what you call KitKat tastes nothing like ours!
