OK, this is really as yucky as it sounds and for that I'm sorry but I really need help! I go days without going to the loo and really suffer with abdominal pain, then when I finally go its like explosive diarrhea with more extreme pain! My bariatric nurse suggested this constipation and backlog and to up my fruit, veg and water but I'm having real trouble doing this so I'm looking for any ideas to help get them all in every day (hate to admit it but I'm the worlds worst for not eating fruit and veg and not drinking enough, now I'm really suffering tho its time to pull my socks up!). Thank you in advance for any help xx

My calcium supplements do this to me. A prune eaten with every calcium supplement helps me. I also dilute my protein shakes to get more water in

take some sort of fiber if you're not getting enough of it. Metamucil works great
