Candace2314 117 Posted April 11, 2011 I spent the day trying everything I could think of to get rid of this gas. I accomplished the mission! YAY!!! It took, Miralax, prune juice, and a freakin fleet's enema, but hey- tasked accomplished. I'm so happy now. I also took pictures of how I looked the day before surgery and I took a comparison pic just now (exactly a week after) and the difference is astounding! Like, my stomach area alone looks alot smaller. I started out at 312 pounds (pre-op diet) and today when I weighed myself, I was at 279lbs. I'm amazed. I intend on stepping away from the scale for a while because I know that soon enough there will be the "dreadful stall" and I'm ok with that. I think I'm going to go back to work on Tuesday, so tomorrow I'm going to spend the day resting. I hope that you all have a great week ahead of you and some interesting stories along the way. Take Care, Candace Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Candace2314 117 Posted April 13, 2011 Yes the gas has been bad (sorry for scaring you) lol. Also try gas-x, this too has been wonderful. I'm still struggling with gas issues and Constipation but they are no longer ruling my life. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
