Sorry for the TMI post, but I'm curious to know if anyone else is experiencing very long, loud, stinky farts? If so, do you have solutions for this problem? Beano? Probiotics? Never leaving your house?

Oh gosh yes, but usually only if I've eaten too much fat or carbs

Interesting. I'll keep an eye on that, but it doesn't seem to have rhyme or reason right now. Thank you.

I agree on the carb thing - that does happen to some people (but not all) when they eat carbs. Sugar alcohol can also be a culprit for some people

The gas issue may be the thing I'm dreading the most after surgery. I work in an open office with cubicles, so it will be hard to hide it. How often are people passing gas? Is there time to run to the toilet and do it there?

it's not a universal problem. I've never had issues with it. Some do, some don't. Maybe you'll be one of the lucky ones!

73 days post op - no real issues now, but "never trust a fart" early on! 😎

That's good to hear! I'll remember that there is light at the end of the tunnel if the gas is out of control in the early days after surgery.

Tooting post surgery that's okay, it's the untrustworthy farts I dislike, but unless I take laxatives I'm dry as the Kalihari Desert after my RnY. That's why I was interested the other day reading about MCT, I'm for things that help slide along and painlessly out. Until then I guess me and Squatty Potty are steady-dating.

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
