Random burst of diareah?! Three weeks out from having the sleeve. Have not had anything out of the ordinary from what I've been doing... Is that normal?

I'm wondering if ur suffering from dumping. I am only 4 days out and haven't had that happen yet :). Although I have heard it does happen.

Yes a lot of people think that you cannot dump with the sleeve, but you can....

Look back at what you ate in the last 24 hours and try them again one at a time and see what reaction you get...elimination is a great tool to see what you cannot tolerate...Other wise consider it a good cleaning out...K

I think I've experienced this with the Boost/Ensure nutrition drinks. I had two back to back (within a 5 hour span) and it totalled about 65g carbs...needless to say it went right through me and I didn't feel very good for a few hours!

There are things that are on my list that I can eat but they don't sit well with me and then I have the runs.....You can figure out what it is..Like other posters who have narrowed it down to this or that...no reason to panic.....you will figure it out...

Sometimes it just happens because of how you are feeling that day....This just is the way it is...But if it is a food issue better to try to find the culprit then keep having this trouble... :)

The runs is not dumping. Still it is normal, especially before you are on solids. If it continues past solids and is happening most of the time (rather than rarely), talk to your doctor. It could be something you are eating that is not agreeing with you, it could be gall bladder issues, or could be just one of those things.

Yeah, I am not on solids yet so I expect the squirts to happen.

      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.
