I am now a master farter!



Recommended Posts

Has this happened to anyone else? Since I have had surgery I do the loudest, longest farts. I know it's not ladylike, but seriously, if I was a teenage boy I would be the life of the party. It has almost become a talent but as a 55 year old woman I don't have opportunities to show off my new talent. Is it just me or are there other farting champions out there?

Hello !

Beside your farting ... How do you feel ? Was surgery worth it?

I am from Sydney Australia ( having op in October)

Sounds like you are happy and comfortable !

I can't wait for my surgery ( can't wait to fart! Anything is better then lugging around excess fat !

It has been great. I am really happy with my weight loss and how I look now. I had surgery in November and lost 30 kilos really quickly. I want to lose another 10 but decided to slow my loss down for a while as I did not want the Hair loss problem. Have been on holiday for the last 2 weeks but when I go home I am going to get back onto the diet. The good news has been that in the past I would go on holiday and put on 5 kilos in 2 weeks but this time I have enjoyed myself with food and the occasional cocktail but my weight has remained the same. It was a great investment for me.

At five and a half weeks out, I find that my farts are finally starting to weaken a bit.. but they were SO powerful and LOUD after surgery. I was shocked! I always had little sneaky quiet ones before. Holy heck, now they seriously sound like I'm sitting on a whoopi cushion. I was staying with my sister for two weeks post op, and my five year old nephew even felt the need to inquire... "Auntie, How come you fart so much now?"

You are not alone. I am continually surprised and impressed with the quantity of gas I have coming out of me. Not during the day, but at 6am when I wake up. It sounds like frog mating season in my house each morning.

But as far as you being the fart master, hmmm... I don't know. You must pass the test! Here, see this pebble? When you can fart and blow the pebble out of my hand before I close it and leave no skid marks - then and only then will you be the FART MASTER!

I don't fart any more than usual but I did notice during the first six months or so that my farts had that extra special ingredient which made them doubly potent. Now either they have gone back to normal, or everyone else in the house has lost their sense of smell. One thing I know something is killing all our goldfish. I wonder if they're like parakeets.

I've had just the opposite effect. I USED to be the master tooter now even my son said he missed my toots. I just don't fart as much as I used to. Hardly ever now!!!

F U N N Y! Thankfully, I do not have this "skill", lol. I think if I did, I would be crying about my regret for havaing had the surgery. I'm with OP - for a 50 year old woman, I'm never in a position to show off with it :)

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
