I hear ya - I was lactose intolerant for about 3 weeks and then it subsided and I am tolerant once again - milk seemed to be the one thing that really got me, hard cheeses seemed to be okay.

Milk sugar is what you’re intolerant to right now so things made with that will effect you.

I am lactose intolerant you can get a bunch of lactose free stuff, cheese milk yogurt even ice cream not that I have tried that but you can get it.

For my shakes I either use lactose free semi skimmed milk or alpro hazelnut milk.

You could be dumping on the sweet stuff (not really meant to have it lol) though its said we don’t have dumping syndrome people do have it.

Cold clammy sweats maybe mouth watering shaky feeling sick?

Not sure if people feel anything else never had it myself to be sure just from what I read about people who do.

i just realized after being extremely sick in the past 5 days and losing another 3 pounds that i am definitely lactose intolerate. i guess i never paid attention to the signs before. I JUST WENT GRocery shopping but for now im cutting out cheese completely.. its big my biggest weakness. my daughter loves her milk and yogurt. i see my pcp on wed so i will def be asking whats the best pills to take. i hate the cramping diharrea feeling. i get cold sweats and chills. it took over me at work on friday. i suppose thats what the dumping syndrome feels like. its so painful and something i dont want 2 deal with anymore. i was getting so scared wondering what was wrong with me. i will def be looking into lactose free everything just to avoid this pain that has taken over me!!!

Yeah I have the pain lactose intolerance for me if I keep ignoring it and keep eating normal stuff its gets worse and worse its really not pleasant!

Other people get bathroom issues and even puke because of it but that’s extreme so for now I suggest switching stuff out to lactose free so you can cut it back and not be in extra pain!

I was just going to get on here and ask about If surgery making me lactose intolerant was possible and I found this thread. I love this site. Lol.

My fave foods ever were all milk based. Greek yogurt, cheese, fat free cottage cheese and so on. Since my surgery (July 27) I can't eat any of it without feeling really sick after. Its kinda depressing. I really hope it goes away..

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
