What's on your Monday Menu?
I stopped after the conference cold turkey and I'm all fiber. It was great at first, then things started slowing down so I upped my dose - trying to find the sweet spot. I used to feel bloated all the time which became normal for me until I stopped miralax.

I actually just ordered the fiber from Chrissy and from what I am reading form you all, I will probably have to find just the right amount of both to keep things normal. Maybe if I could reduce the Miralax by half I would have less of the bloating/gas.
RNY 8/11/14 with Dr. Kelvin Higa PS Lipectomy 4/12/17 with Dr. John Burnett HW291.4/CW165/GW150
I quit Miralax pretty early on. It took awhile to re-regulate but definitely felt less bloated without it, enough that I haven't been tempted to try it again!
