Have you tried the gasX strips? they melt in your mouth and control the gas really well for some. Are you walking still? that works the gas out too. Try lactaid milk, also, there is a product called Beano. a pill that reduces gas before you eat.

The best thing for the gas problem is like Carolyn said, walk, walk and then walk some more. And just when you think you have walked enough, go for another walk. :thumbup1:

Are you talking gas from the surgery or are you talking gas (flatulence) after you eat? Everything I eat these days seems to give me gas, doesn't seem to matter what I do. I just figured it was like the excess acid in the stomach and that it, too, will pass.

Otherwise, when I get married next year, they may give me Bearded's old nickname of "Farty McCarty" and I DEFINITELY don't want that!!!!

Everything gives me gas. It's a big problem. I think splenda gives me gas too. I know anything with sugar alcohol gives me gas worse than I ever thought was possible. Milk products definitely give me gas too.

Like I said, it's a big embarrassing problem!

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
