I don't know if it's normal but it can't hurt. I wish I was like that - I tend towards Constipation. Very unpleasant!

I've heard of a lot of people needing to go asap.

Not sure if its normal but you're not the only one.

I have the runs all day every day. Usually while or just after eating.

I wish I had this problem. I've never been as terribly constipated as I've been since surgery.

I eat a mini whole wheat bagel with low fat cream cheese for Breakfast. I have tuna salad and wheat thins for lunch. I will have a couple almonds and a cheese stick for a snack. For dinner I will have grilled chicken breast with a few bites of mashed potatoes. If I get a sweet tooth later at night I will eat a low fat yogurt.

I have had the runs for two months now and I'm three months out from surgery. I now have internal hemorrhoids due to the strain down there. I have to go maybe six times per day. My rear end hurts so bad I cannot sit on it for like 30mins after I go.

That truly sucks. I've went as far as 9 days wondering if I had a bowel obstruction as nothing worked. Eating prunes daily now. Did the dr ever give u anything to try to stop it?

The doctor just sais to eat oat meal to try to bind my stools, but I have hypoglycemia and the oat meal caused an issue with that. I may try to not eat dairy for a few days and see if that helps.

Sounds like you may be dumping every time you eat. Maybe?

I don't think its good tho... We already have a shortened time that our food stays in our system and it minimizes what we take in. I wonder if this is even worse for you? Are you dropping wright really fast?

The lactose thing might be true. I would get sick right after surgery with diarrhea with milk. Now it just makes me feel retched.

      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.
