Is it normal to have diarriah after starting dairy products in my post op diet? Ive had this for two days now & its worrying me HELP

Did anyone of you get diarrhea after starting dairy products?

Today is day four after my sleeve & i feel great so happy

When will the burping when drinking Water stops? I got sleeved June 12 & still in hospital on Clear Liquids but swallowing water kinda hurts with burping !!!

I still feel gas pain in my abdomen & cant stand straight ..

No nausea but i have gas pain in my lower abdomen , i wonder how long will i have gas pain???

I did it & soooo happy , no pain only discomfort from the gas.

I have to be in the hospital in an hour, excited & cant believe its today

Had surgery this afternoon. I am just waking up. I have a liitle soreness. Nothing crazy. I am however very tired. All went well. I am so happy to be rid of my lapband. I have been up walking and to use the bathroom. Nothing major to report. I am going back to sleep. Very very tired.

Im so happy you are okay

How excited are you!!?!! Just think about how good you are doing ! I still think about cigarettes !

In 24 hours from now I will be in the hospital getting ready for my sleeve, liquid diet today I'm glad I'm not thinking of smoking at this point

Omg!!! 16 hrs till go time!!! Nerve wrecking... But sooo excited! Meet with my surgeon today... Everything is set... I know. I lost 15 so everything is ready! Can't wait until tomorrow

Good luck tomorrow

Best of luck for all of you getting sleeved today

How do you feel that in less than a day you will have ur sleeve?

I couldn't sleep last night so nervous :$

I sure hope not !!! When are you getting sleeved ??

When i eat i feel depressed its like food is a kind of an addiction once I'm full guilt starts, will i feel like that after my sleeve if i eat will I feel guilty?

Im nervous today & not smoking is making me a bit moody ... Two days to go & my new life begins

So surgery in 2 day ... Lol... I'm counting midnight because once june11 is here I am getting sleeved!!! I'm packed up it should only be an overnight stay.. But it is getting sooooo real.... I'm sooo excited and happy that when I see my family I say 2 days... I just really hope I'm not hungry after this... I've been on my two liquid diet since may 27...

Im June 12 yay good luck

I actually had to take a drug test that also tested the nicotine and cotinine levels and my insurance won't cover me until I pass which I did but yea my hospital has a center of excellence and they will not operate if you smoke weed or nicotine.

Unfortunately in Qatar they don't do nicotine tests but I have the will to quit all unhealthy habits & have a new slim healthy Amna within a year from now.

amna

warning warning

to all smokers.................i am not talking/preaching to YOU...........but if you wanna listen thats ok too

My addiction of "choice"??? has always been food

i never smoked

that being said ......

i get it that nicotene is some sort of chemical?? addiction that must be extremely hard to get rid of permanately

we/you know the dangers of smoking

quit now' date=' avoid the christmas rush

working on getting rid of smoking now before surgery - getting used to not smoking will be hard

i can't imagine what you will be dealing with

"won't power" for smoking and eating is one way to look at issues

i won't pick up that cigarette ( or that brownie )

easier said than done

i can see that you are a smart "cookie"

you know you must/should stop smoking

you will have a hard enough time dealing with your eating changes

start dealing with the smoking issue sooner than later

working on 2 addictions together will be hard, but you can do this!!!

you made the wise decision to start taking care of your health/body by changing your eating habits,

with the help of the sleeve

you are starting your new life - getting healthy by losing weight

feeling better about yourself/your appearance

i KNOW you get a grip on the smoking situation

it will be hard - but you can do it

you also need/and have all that strength for your successful journey towards health, happiness with the sleeve

good luck

Thank you your words really give strength

Im sure i will find u cheering me up with your words when i feel the need to amole again

Weird is right' date=' it makes me sad that a doctor would take such a causal attitude toward cigarettes.. But you must remember doctors are human beings too. And do not always have all the right information or answers.[/quote']

Well i promised myself today will be my last day i will quit before the 48 hours the doctor mentioned I'm not sure it will last tho.

I wish it will be my last day of smoking for good

Wish me luck

My doctor said quit two days before & smoke less after the op.

i thought it was weird!

Any of you smoke? Im curious what the doctor told you regarding smoking ?

I need to lose 50 kilos Im so excited & waiting for my new life to start Good luck to all of us with our new sleeved lives

I was able to tolerate both cold and hot liquids after being sleeved. I enjoyed a nice steamy cup of tea on day 3 post op as well as a popscicle. Everyone is different and my best advice to you is simply to try both and see if you are able to tolerate them a few days post op.

Now you raised a new question few days post op then what will i be having the first day or second?

Im happy & excited i cant stop thinking of questions to ask

Will it be hard or painful to drink hot/ cold stuff after the sleeve, first week or 3 weeks?
