I've read a lot about this. It seems to be a common problem. If you are using Protein powder that could be the culprit. I also have this problem - I use the Protein Powder & hate it. I do hear that Constipation does set in not too long after this stage though.

If it's persistent - I would call the doctor, you don't need anymore factors playing in dehydration. Good luck!

My doctor told me that this is common. It will go away once you start eating more solid foods. Good Luck!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
