Its not unusual to have diahrea. liquid in = liquid out unfortunately. Is it the Protein shot? or were you taking that preop? It may have something in it that doesn't agree with you. There were certain Protein drinks that did that to me as well... If it persists for longer than 48 hours, consult your Dr who may recommend some medication for it.

All the best

Check the sugar in your shots. People who have the bypass procedure usually have dumping moreso than sleeve patients. I have the complete opposite problem. I agree you should call the doc.

I had it a couple of times yesterday but it makes sense, liquid in = liquid out. I felt fine though so I don't think it's a big deal. I got it when I drank the wrong thing maybe that's what it is. Take a look at everything you've had and see if something you drank could be the cause.

yes check for sugar alcohol in your drinks... usually it is malitol or some other ingredient ending in -ol . They can produce gas and diarrhea. Working so hard to stay hydrated you do not want to let it go on too long.

It is the protien shot I bought from my clinic. I thought maybe I was trying to drink them too fast.I am just afraid of dehydration.

Drink Gatorade. That's all I'm drinking because I know that I'm getting electrolytes and what I need.

Ill try that thanks!
