Workout - obstruction? Omega 3 bogus?

Hi,

I have found that I too get obstructed when I begin lifting weights especially if I do sit ups. I also have I noticed that when I sit on a exercise ball that I will obstruct days later.  But I also get up stricted when I don't workout heavily so I can't say it's just the working out.  

I hope you are feeling better!

Thank you Maddie. I am doing better, but so tired after a whole day obstructed. 

Yes, I completely understand.  You will be strong again very soon, wishing you a quick recovery.

J-pouchers definitely have to be careful with exercises. A lot of people in the community get hernias when they overdo it or even do certain exercises. We have to be gentle but active. 

A good way of preventing blockages is by drinking before, during, after every meal. And Chew Chew Chew. Those are my recomendations that are pretty popular. 

Are you doing better after all of this time???

Hi Lauren, Thank you. Yes, I am doing ok. Living almost normal, though having issuses wirh my back. My doctor calls me 'one of the lucky ones'. I try not to think about the future and keeps my fingers crossed.

How are you doing?

I am soo happy to hear that! I hope your back gets better! I am glad that you are a lucky person, a lot of people are not lucky at all, myself included XD. And you are right about that, I need to do what you do and stop thinking about the future, that can be depressing.

I am doing great, thanks for asking I am going to be celebrating my 28th birthday soon and my 6th year anniversary soon with my J-pouch. My birthday is October 6th and my J-pouch birthday is October 13th. 2 Birthdays to celebrate in one week, that is going to be fun XD.
