Diarrhea sporadically soon after sleeve?



Recommended Posts

Hey everyone! This may be TMI but I wasn't quite sure what to do, and I wanted to know if any of you have had this issue.

I was sleeved on Monday (yay!), and on Wednesday I had a small BM, but today when I woke up I had diarrhea, and then later in the day (a long time after one nectar Protein Drink and not long after a second), I had it again. I don't believe I am dehydrated, as generally these drinks are in my body long enough, but I do know that it is a risk.

Is it just my body adjusting, the fact that I am using Water based Protein Drinks, or something else? My doctor's office is closed at the moment, so I cannot call them.

Thanks! =^.^=

Liquids in liquids out. You can't have a solid BM, when you aren't having solid food.

Thanks. That is what I was thinking, but I wasn't entirely sure!

I am 2 weeks out today, and if I drink my Protein Shakes too fast... it happens. The first time was INTENSE and my stomach hurt for about an hour... I almost went to the ER it was so bad! I took everything I thought that would relieve it! Finally I was able to lay on my left side in bed, and the intense pain subsided not too long after... I still drink it EXTREMELY slow

      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.
