I'm a little over two weeks post op. Has anyone noticed an increase in Body Odor?

Part of that can be from the gas they used during surgery and part of it can be from the Protein Shakes. When you can eat more balanced it should get better.

I think it may also have something to do with your body being in ketosis. I first noticed it on my two week liquid preop diet. It will go away.

I havent had any of these issues. Maybe because ive had a hysterectomy. Could be the hormones.

I went from Secret clear gel to Dove. The Secret would be fine but only until about 3...since I tend to hit the gym after 4, I had to do something!!

my sister brought me a goodie bag today, some different kinds of green tea bags and some MITCHUM deodrant. After I told her I couldn't stand the smell of myslef she must have thought she would get me some heavy duty stuff.

I also found that i was rather smelly! Luckliy theres a deoderant cream here in israel that you put a small dab under your arms once a week and all smell is gone! Its amazing stuff --/ and theres one especially for feet which works amazingly too. What i like about it is that i dont have to suffer a strong perfume smell which i hate

      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.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
