Gross But Need To Know! I Heard Pooping Smelt Really Bad!



Recommended Posts

Color Depends on what eat. I wouldn't say that droppin the kids off at the pool is worse than before, but the gas is more frequent.... And a tad worse than before.

I've gone once every two weeks since surgery and it is rough. Smell is atrocious.

Yes, I'm doing something about it now.

I take 4 Fiber advance gummies each day, I typically go every 3-4 days. That took getting used to, because I used to go about 3-5 times a day. Maybe that's why, for me, that it's not much worse.

That, or maybe since I've lost weight, I think my poop dont stink? ;)

So its true u have problems pooping after surgery

Many people do have problems going after surgery. However on the other hand many people also have the opposite problem after surgery. It really is pot luck. Xxx

I was a multiple times a day pre surgery, after surgery, I didn't go for almost 2 full weeks, and I almost cried the first time. If it's been a week and you haven't gone, take some Fiber and stool softeners, then pray. ;)

      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.
