Daily Gas/bloating

[Sleevie J 130]

I have been experiencing a daily issue with gas and bloating. It doesn't seem to matter what I eat or when I eat it but EVERY SINGLE DAY. I get all bloated and gassy around 5 o'clock. I have no real issues with anything else just the gas. I am doing some yoga poses when i get home in the evening to help and I am still taking gas-x pills and strips (is it possible to OD on gas-x?) But This is increasingly becoming an issue. I have skim milk in the morning with my Protein Shake. Usually fish for lunch and more fish or chicken for dinner. I'm 1 month post. Does anyone else experience this?

Have you explored the possibility that you have become lactose intolerant? I know this is quite common after surgery and it would fit the symptoms you are describing. It might be worth trying to cut out dairy and see if that helps.

When I eat stuff with Fiber or artificial sweeteners I get really gassy. Plus dairy makes me gassy.

Me too! This gas is driving me crazy every day and the OTC stuff isn't doing any good (I take Lactaid with every meal that has any kind of cheese or milk, along with tons of gas x, and several digestive enzymes daily) - this is insane! I cant figure out what is causing this. I am afraid to eat anything anymore b/c I am worried it's gonna make matters worse. Its so bad it has even caused some embarrassing moments in public!!! I was at my wits end so I did some research and found two things that were HIGHLY recommended by gastric bypass patients:

1. Fennel Tea

2. Charcoal tabs

I have ordered both on Amazon and am anxiously waiting for them to arrive. I will let you know if they work.

Did either of these things work for you? I'm over a year out and trying to find something that will work.

I have found I have become rather lactose intolerant since I started this process. The gas was unreel (room clearing) until I cut out the milk.
