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.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
