  3. Yes! Me too (had mine on the 16th) and it lasted about a week. Mine got way better (more predictable and less frequent) when I started Protein shakes. Hang in there, it gets better! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

  6. I'm also 8 days out and having the same problem. It has gotten better the past couple of days and it seemed to improve once I started having Protein shakes (and limiting my Water intake before and after the shakes). After reading quite a bit on dumping syndrome, I don't think this is it because I've had no sweats with it). I hope it continues to improve! :-) Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

  17. Sip, sip, sleep, sip, sip, walk, and repeat. It seemed like I had more gas when I didn't sip and walk. Try to have someone burp you like a baby...leaving forward slightly. And use your gas strips! Life saver! I didn't have much pain either. Hang in (what else can you do? Lol). You've got this! Hard part is done! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  18. I finally had a Protein shake this morning first thing and it made ALL the difference! I am so thankful for the support here! Thank you to those who responded. Hugs to those getting sleeved soon! You've GOT this and everyday is easier! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  19. I got sleeved on the 16th. I've had nothing but explosive diarrhea. . Is anyone doing Protein shakes yet? And if so, how is that going? Sick of living on the toilet! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  20. Mine was March 16. :-) Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  21. I agree with the above message. I thought I would be eating everything I could get my hands on before surgery. It was the exact opposite. It was like 'okay, I've got my mind around this and it's going to happen....I didn't do anything to sabotage it or make it worse. When I look back, it was a bit surreal. I think your feelings are normal. :-) Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
