Bowel Movement

I have a resolve to my question pertaining to post op bowel movement. Dr. Jean-Baptiste is amazing. Prior to surgery, I had to fast w/liquids for 1 day, the next day was liquids w/citrate of magnesium for breakfast. It was the most unbearable thing to enter my body, and it was grape flavored. I am now 5 dys post op & doing lovely. I just began a full liquid diet today, nonfat milk w/protein powder, sugar free pudding, yogurt, etc. My bowel movement was the same as it after I drank the Citrate. Anyone who is constipated post op, it is probably due to the Percocet or Oxecodone. Percocet is fanominously known for causing constipation. I had no pain; irgo, I had no need for pain medication. I had a tremendously blessed surgery and recovery, Bypass chick.
