Im 5 months post-op and I havent been able to eat any dairy since my surgery. Im wondering if other people are having this problem and how common it is. Also, I extremely miss sauces and condiments which make me ill. Anybody have any advice on products that are lactose-free AND sugar-free. Im dying for a salad!

Have been eating salads for at least two months. Eat a small amount, chew it good, and see what happens.

I have been having a problem eating my cottage cheese and yogurt in the morning. After I have breakfast about 2 hours later I am running to the bath room. I also had my gall bladder removed 10 wks after RNY surgery, my doctor thinks I may be a bit lactose intolerant. Nothing else bothers me except for cottage cheese and yogurt and sadly I love both of them

Can't eat dairy either since surgery. I use muscle milk light for Protein shakes, lactaid products milk and cottage cheese, soy yogurt.

I tried the lactaid pills for lactose intolerance and it has worked amazingly. I havent had any problems with ranch, yogurt or milk. Yoplaid also started making lactose free yogurt but of course with all healthy things it is more expensive. I would definitely try the lactaid pills if you have problems with dairy. You can take as many as you need in any given day.
