Yogurt causing gas...good or bad?



Recommended Posts

Hey guys,

Quick question for you. I had my surgery on Monday and tried yogurt for the first time today. I usually just do the cottage cheese but decided to try something different. Right away, my stomach started gurgling and making noise and then came the expelling of gas (sorry TMI - I know...so attractive lol)

should I try it again or not? is it good that it’s helping me expel gas or is it giving me more gas?

Just had bypass Tuesday and can’t seem to get the upper body gas pains to calm down. Hurts to breath at times. Has anyone taken Gasx or the like this early one? I’m afraid to eat anything

Pink Nova, same thing happens here. I feel like I’m always gurgling and when I eat it gets louder. I also have gas. Upper body though, in my back. I did hear that sometimes with these surgery’s we can develop lactose intolerance for a while so maybe that’s what’s happening

Thanks for your input! You are probably right. Right now I look like I’m 9 months pregnant with a gas baby lol

I’m 17 days out & feel the same way! I can tell that I have lost weight in my sides but my stomach is all bloated! I’m taking GasX 4 times a day. I also feel constipated most of the time. Started stool softens this week.

Have you tried the milk of magnesia??? I was constipated and took it one night, a few hours later I was all cleared up. It didn’t even cause any stomach pains or cramps.

I’m still feeling the bloat and gas from the yogurt and it’s been over 12 hours since I consumed it! So annoying!!!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
