[Lisa LoVuolo 63]

Does any one think their stomach is bloated from the Gastric Bypass.

I don't have a bypass, but your question does warrant some clarification...do you mean immediately after surgery or do you mean after eating something?

If after eating...what stage are you at and what volume of food and type of food are you eating?

[Lisa LoVuolo 63]

Yes I mean after surgery

Lisa, please put your stats in. It will help people know how to respond to you better. Go to your profile to fill in the numbers. What was your starting weight? How much did you lose? What was your goal weight? What is your weight now? Did you have regain since surgery? A lot of your questions seem to be more like what a new post op patient would ask, so please give us a bit more history. Tell us how you are eating now. Are you able to eat full sized meal? If so a lot of bloating can be from carbs or foods that you are not digesting completely. How is your simple carb and sugar intake? What does a day's menu look like for you? Are you still following up with your nutritionist?

Sorry for all the questions, but it's hard to know how to offer answers without more information.

I bloat with carbs - even the good kind. I also bloat with some vegetables (like brussel sprouts). I think I probably always did, I just couldn't tell with the extra cushioning

I am only just over two weeks out but I bloat over everything it seems. SF Jello and Water no. But a bit of juice, Protein Shakes, dairy, they all cause bloating. Fun times. I was like that prior to surgery too, but not as bad.

I'm only 9 weeks out from a RNY bypass - my stomach definitely bloats after eating anything. I am wearing stretchy clothes atm and I can definitely feel them getting tighter after eating. Also, while I'm happy with my weight loss and I've lost some off my stomach, I haven't lost as much there as everywhere else! I've gone down a shoe size but still have a spare tyre 😞
