Airstream 88 no i have not. Going to see my PCP this coming week I will definitely bring it up

I'm 6 months post mini gastric bypass. I'm at my goal weight. I have been miserable with gas and painful bloating ever since I went on solid food. Everything seems to trigger it. I'm constantly uncomfortably bloated and the gas is horrendous. It's ruined the joy of my weight loss. I'm eating or trying to eat a paleo diet. I eat small portions, fist size or lower. I chew chew chew. What can I do? I'm seriously considering giving up all solid foods. My fiber and protein intake is huge. Does this ever end?

I'm Group Health but had my surgery in Mexico on June 27. Mini bypass. Excellent experience and one fifth the cost of full pay here! Love my new life down 53 pounds in 8 weeks.

Yes my surgeon IMs me immediately and said its normal im just back on clear broth and clear liquids

Thanks AC

Thanks James I'm lactose intolerant already so my shakes are lactose free. No sugar or fats in the diet yet my nutr suggested two days clear liquids to shut it down

I'm 8 days post op. Since coming home I've had some big issues with gurgling and very runny stools. It's about once a day that a session begins about 4 hours after I've had my Protein shake. I will be gurgling and volcanic for about an hour. Take immodium. Drink Water then be fine until 4 hours after my Bariatric Pal shake or Soup. I've had loose stools all my life. Is this ok at this point? I'm taking Probiotics and Vitamins from Bariatric Pal. I don't take any lactose products. Tips or recommendations? Tom

SW 248 Surgery weight 232 One week post op: 224 Feel good. My bypass and I are figuring out what foods are ok, what it will tolerate, and how much . Sipping is my new life instead of gorging!!

I have struggled with acid reflux and IBS for the last thirty some years or more in fact I cannot remember the last time my stomach felt so relaxed. No bloating. No pain. No hunger. And it's Thursday , had mini bypass surgery on Monday here in Tijuana . Some huge differences here in the hospital care. When you ring for a nurse they actually show up. My room was cleaned twice a day. Michael stayed with me in the room. Medications came on the dot. IV changed as soon as it beeped! Doctors are so kind and amazing. It's wonderful here and the men and women here are so gracious. Mexican health care is great with Bariatric Pal. The service was great, the hospital clinic clean. I'm very happy with the results!!! And Roberto Carlos is a real sweetheart as are all the BP Mexico valets! I'm so excited about my new life and the gift of my new life from Dr Illian!

All are welcome Teacherjen
