Wondering about having a BM

I was on liquid diet for only 3 days pre op and the week before I chose to eat only one light meal a day and Ensure for the other two meals for @ weeks. My Last BM was on the night before surgery and it was really tiny almost non existant. I was operated on Feb 11th 2010 and thus far being only a week out I still have not had a BM. I don't even have the feeling to go. How long on average does it take to get going?? I started Protein shakes on Feb 16th.I thought that I should have had something by now. Is this typical???
