I am 18 months post op and still get really bad gas. Try something called Devrom. It helps with the gas and the smell of gas.

Maybe I'm warped.. Maybe cause I'm a nurse and it's so just a typical convo..but I apparently seem to reply to gas & poo type questions..lol..yay me!

I think there's tons of us on here who experience the post rny gas issue. Apparently I'm also no longer a lady(according to my husband)! Gas x strips are pretty much a staple around my house and it's not really went away. I didn't have the gas like this before. Just another wonderful things to love about the journey to better health :)

I had gas prior to surgery few farts here and there but since surgery I feel like I have no control. Now when I pass gas not only does it smell like a zombies insides, it's loud and long, some days when I try to ease it out POW it comes out like a raging bull....

One day Before winter came, I was walking in front of this guy...so I decide to add a little shake to my walk...what was that for...every step I took all u hear is pop,pop,pop,pop, I started to walk a little quicker because I was embarrassed and I was sounding like my own American bandstand. Sighs...

I give new meaning to pull my finger lol

My smell was horrible. Once I started taking the Devrom that got better.

I have often said I know my husband loves me to put up with that smell. The dog even leaves the room!

      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.
