Did Anyone have bowel blockage or intestinal issues after surgery
CharmRud posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have had a doozy of a time since my initial sleeve surgery in 2016. After some complications, I had a revision to bypass last year, then another hospital stay this year for a bowel blockage. Right now I am still experiencing intestinal issues and I am scheduled for a colonoscopy in December. If I just drink protein shakes my tummy is fine. No constipation, no bloating I feel great. As soon I eat anything remotely resembling a real meal my tummy complains. Anyone else have this issue. Thanks -

Thank you. I do smooth move tea, and my doctor also put me on Linzess. Hoping for a long term cure 🙂 -

Where do people even shop?!?!?!?
CharmRud replied to AEdoesRnY's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I started off shopping online at the instagram stores until my weight stabilized. You can get cheap, trendy pieces or work clothes that won’t break the bank. When you get to your goal weight transition to the high end stores. I shop at boohoo, fashion nova, misguided, Zara,shein, romwe for cheap trendy clothes and shoes. Nostrum Rack, Macy’s, Dillard’s, H&M, TJMaxx for my more permanent more expensive pieces. My weight changed so often in the beginning I learned the hard way not to spend too much. I would have clothes that got too big so fast I never got to wear them. Also thredUP, for new/used clothing. You can usually find some great pieces on ASOS it is great. You find every brand on there. Happy Shopping! -
