Okay, don't laugh. But I have had bad smelly gassy farts since surgery. It is especially bad at night. I am embarrased by this and hate when my husband walks in the room and asks what smells. I try to blame it on my son, great mom huh, but I am sure my husband knows. So here is my questions. Is it common? I know gas can be but people are vague wether it is stomach gas or butt gas. How do I get rid of it. I do have gasex but again thought it is more for stomach gas. I do not eat a lot of foods that usually cause gas so I have no idea where it is all coming from. Giggles are okay, kinda a funny subject to me. But help is much needed. thanks

The Protein Shakes and sugar free stuff like Jello and pudding give me mad gas. Gas-x helps butt gas. I gave it to my husband the other night haha. If it makes you feel any better, it's good that you're getting it all put because you'd feel miserable if all that built up in your tummy. Hope you get some relief soon!

I agree tengles...I blame it on my boys also...and boy it gets bad! lol I've noticed that the more artificial sweetener I have, the more gas I have...I've heard other people say that sweeteners are the trouble makers here, but not an expert, just know what happens here.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
