So after a week of either no poo, watery poo, or poo that looked like melted Hershey kisses, I had what could actually qualify as a real, life, honest to goodness solid-ish poo this morning! I feel like I've graduated or something LOL!

Yea... pooping is great when it works good.
My pooper is broken at the moment. Not sure why... but I can't do it unless I help it... (enema)

Oh, Hala.. I am sorry. Enemas SUCK! I have been horribly constipated over the last few weeks. I have started adding Benefiber to my morning protein drink, but I think I may have to do something more drastic.

I have a "lazy colon", Sometimes it just does not want to work. Not sure why.... sometime even the enema does not work... I hate that... but ... need to do what I need to do... no?
More fiber does not wok when things are not moving... it gets worse, not better. I do eat a lot of fiber as flax (fiber + fat for lubrication). some days ... it is what it is.
BTW: I had that issue even before RNY... The doc do not know why ... The calcium does not help. Iron - kills me...

I had issues before RNY, too. I have ALWAYS been a 2 or 3 times a week pooper. It's never made me uncomfortable before, that's just the way it was. Now, I get uncomfortable. Iron kills me, too.. but, I am anemic.. so, I take it. Ugh. =]

They do not work very well with lazy colon.
High enema does.
