@geekygirl9, I've been trying to cut back on the amount of Miralax I having been using also. I had a double inguinal hernia surgery last year and am still struggling some with constipation and getting back to a new normal along with trying to make sure I don't damage what the hernia surgery fixed with straining. I've gotten to where I only need it every few days by using Heather's Tummy Fiber which can help both constipation and diarrhea but you have to find a happy medium in the dosage - https://www.heatherstummycare.com/p/suplmts_acacia-can/tummy-fiber-acacia-senegal-can/. My other go to is Prunelax Tea in the evening which works well if you let it steep for about 10 minutes or more - https://www.amazon.com/Prunelax-Natural-Laxative-Tea-Count/dp/B07DFSNYQW/.

My hope is to eventually just use the tummy fiber daily when I get the correct amount determined that works for me. I try to eat a lot more good fiber foods also but it's sometimes a struggle. Hoping you find something that works.
