I am now a master farter!



Recommended Posts

Congrats on your victorious farts. My toots have diminished since surgery. I'm thinking because of my lack of fruits and veggies. I'm hoping to regain some fart power once I'm on solid good phase :) but congrats again!! Haha funny topic

Oh my God! I was laying in bed with my husband reading this while he was sleeping and laughing so much that I was shaking the bed and waking him up with tears rolling down my face. Y'all are hilarious!

I know how much my husband appreciates the musical horn solo lullaby I serenade him with each night when we go to bed! :P

This thread totally cracks me up. The gas is seriously unbelievable. I tell my hubs all the time that I'm so grossed out by my bodily functions now. I even belch really loud and its embarrassing because I never use to do that unless I drank soda which was rare. But hey if it promotes wait loss... All the more power to us all ;)

I always was gassy before (due to IBS) but now it's even worse! And before, a lot of times it was just air but now, 9 times out of 10, it reeks! It's embarrassing. I used to be able to do it in my corner at work and get away with it but now it stinks up the whole room. I was 3 months post-op when I started dating my last boyfriend and I tried so hard to hide it but I don't think I was very good at it. We'd go to bed at night and he always wanted to spoon. I'm sure he noticed me tensing my entire body (to try to hold it in). Now that I'm single again, it's one of my biggest worries about finding someone new. That's ridiculous! I've brought it up at my last two follow-up appointments and the CNP didn't seem too concerned or offer any advice.

      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! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.
