Yes, productive farting! I have experienced this since day 2 after my surgery. The gas has been gurgling through my bowels like crazy, and of course I'm on a clear liquid diet. So, finally do the #2 and it's almost all liquid. Liquid poo, how lovely. And I have to be careful when I fart because it's not always just air..... and I've lost it in my undies a couple times. This sooo sucks. So let's just call this PF-ing. Something akin to PB-ing. I just thought we should have an official title for it.

I have read this happens quite a bit....the liquid, that is....Liquid in, liquid out. So I'm not fearing this will be my lot in life....but ick.

OK everyone for calling it PF-ing? And referring to it as such from now on?

Yep, that's a shart. You think it's a fart, and then OOPS! Nope, not a fart! Then you get to go change yer britches! Been there, done that. Way before banding, too, I might add...

LOVE it! Not the pF-ing, but all of you all are so funny. Don't make me laugh or now I'll pee my pants, too!

AAHHH Yes, early days post op! Be careful, the shart monster may also come calling when on mushies too as happened to me!

I love the term PFing!!lol!! It describes the incident wonderfully!

Oh yes, almost had an "incident" at Target last nite. The main bathroom was closed for cleaning and the little single one by the pharmacy was in use. Lovely.
