So yet again I find myself here talking about my ass.



Recommended Posts

Where on earth did you find such a huge log? I may never get over this. Probiotics are really helping, but I still resort to MOM on occasion. Today it's just gas. I'm farting huge loud as I walk around the house and I think it is starting to embarrass my dog. Poor Roger.

I don't trust the farts. That's why I was on the toilet. But yesterday I wasn't even feeling gassy. I just walked around farting and then I would race to the bathroom. Very very odd.

I never had to worry about this before ... but last night... I should NOT have trusted my fart.

Omg I can't believe I'm telling you all this!!!!

I blame it on you Winklie! You told me about MOM!

at least it could be from the MOM.

Or maybe it's from all of the following:

MOM

Senokot

Stool softeners

Restoralax

Fibre pills

Bran buds

Omg who knows what my Bowels want for evacuation!

I give it tons of Water and exercise! It should be a very happy bowel!

My bowel is an asshole.

So I thought I would pop in an give you all an update and a bit of amusement. It appears that my ass was as unhappy with the results of the Miralax and MOM combination causing volcano ass eruptions. I would have thought it would not care, but since then it has apparently thought things over and decided to play nice, or face more MOM and the ensuing calamity.

We have been getting along for a number of days now. Some better than others, but overall my ass appears to be functioning within reason and performing the task assigned to it.

I do keep the MOM on the back of the toilet bowl just so my ass sees it every time I sit down to use the commode, I think my tough love may have cured my ass or at least frightened it enough to properly......ah work.

Oh and @@heather5565 Jesus Christ with all those ass tools you should be able to pass anything. When I was erupting, I was shocked at what came out of my ass. I don't remember eating some of the stuff I saw. But then again, if a kitten had come out I doubt it would have shocked me. (Although said kitten would require years of intensive therapy to have any chance at a happy life)

I would suggest what my PA told me, double doses or Miralax for a couple days, if that does not work, break out the MOM. Senokot is a bulking agent we are not supposed to take until 6+ months out. Don't ask me what a bulking agent is, I just know it's ass related and not on the approved list. I feel that with the impending threat of MOM my ass will stay the course and behave, if not.......... Well, at least it's over pretty quickly.\

Good luck!

There is a medical term called "Explosive Diarrhea" s*** hits the fan,

I don't go for days then my nurses at work hook me up with MOM and boom, beware if you ever end up in the ER and they suggest something called "Go Lightly" it is an oxymoron and you will become a lumberjack taking down logs......... That was a great post guys, n one ever talks about that, or my 3 instances of dumping

@@laguerr13 I live Volcano Ass as it more closely describes the event. Stomach rumbles for awhile, a couple farts, perhaps a little warning blast, then FULL ERUPTION. I produced enough thrust to probably lift myself a couple inches above the bowl. But I was so busy, with, well you know, that I did not feel the need to add counterbalance. Each succesive eruption was less than the initial one. Until I was, well, empty. Then the rumbling stopped. And I just knew I had done it.

I will make sure to stay away from a product called "Go Lightly" or perhaps I should see if my PCP will write me a script for it to add to my arsenal. I could put it next to the MOM and advise my ass, this is next should it become uncooperative again.

My bowels have been very

very mean to me all week and the WORST this weekend.

Apparently all of what I was taking sat and waited until it had a full army to attack the living sh*t out of my tummy and both large and small intestines.

(Just for more information, I hadn't gone to the bathroom #2 in a week and I'm 11 weeks post op. I drink plenty of Water, exercise and try and get in some raw veggies. Of course it's hard as the a stomach is the size of an egg and Protein before veggies still at this stage)

I've been bullied and beaten.

By my own body.

Hopefully tomorrow they will see that it's Dreaded Monday and will more nice and understanding. And cut me some slack!

I couldn't get sweet pi*s all done today because I had to rush to the bathroom everyone 5 minutes!

Note to self:

Don't take 2 stool softeners twice a day, 2 fibre pills twice a day, Restoralax once a day, bran buds,

2 Senokot at night, MOM at night and expect to be okay!

I was only doing it because thru out the week nothing was happening.

But then all of a sudden i was getting crampy and bloated and well, felt Full!

BOOM

Number 2 showed up!

And a Lot of it. Like all night and all day. Ok bum you're being quite annoying with your constant need for attention!

Ya big baby!

On a good note: tomorrow is my weigh in day.... maybe there will be benefits to such shall I dare say sh*tty weekend!?!?!

@heather5565 I loss 5 pounds in 1/2 an hour. Worked well for me. I was actually kinda happy, even though the ten days I was miserable were terrible, I thought I had hit another stall. Yeah, my ass stalled.

So an update. Ass is still functioning as per the manual.

I was at the pharmacy today getting a prescription filled and talking to my pharmacist. She's very nice and really cool. I asked her if she had heard of a product called "Go Lightly" and she gasped and said "OMG You don't have to take that do you?!?" I said no, and asked her about it. She said it's used before colonoscopies to completely clear you out. It's very powerful and everyone who takes it complains, in fact she said the worse part is the end when you are passing the last of the fecal matter out and it is still acidic, she recommends people keep baking soda/powder (the base one not the acidic one) to neutralize the acid burning their anus. She asked me why I wanted to know, so I filler her in on my ass troubles and the result of a double dose of Miralax and MOM. She started to laugh, but when I told her I was going to ask my PCP for a script for a bottle she said why? I said, well I keep the MOM on the back of the toilet so my ass sees it every-time I sit down and it keeps it in it's memory of what I can do to it. And I thought I could add a bottle of this to let my ass know who is really in charge. She laughed so hard, she had to excuse herself to go to the ladies room. When she came back she said she was about to pee herself she was laughing so hard. She asked me if I really keep the MOM there and I was like oh hell yes! I'll take a picture. We shared a good laugh. And I am serious about getting a bottle of this stuff, just in case.......

My sleeve surgery was 11 days ago. I've had diarrhea issues for years due to IBS (irritable bowel syndrome). For about a year now, I have been taking Probiotics, as recommended by my Gastroenterologist, with miraculous results. After surgery I didn't take it for several days and I had raging diarrhea until I started again. My bowels have been normal ever since starting to take them.Persistent diarrhea disturbs the normal flora in the intestines which causes the diarrhea. I take either Culturelle or Align (both are over the counter,

rotating between the two. After finishing one box of either the Culturelle orAlign, I switch to the other. I found that to be the most way. They are less expensive at Walmart or online. Hope this helps someone!

I take them as well, plus I eat a ton of yogurt (it's like the only treat I eat), it was ass neutral. It did not seem to help me. MOM did. Keep my ass in line too.

      2 days until I fly out to San Diego to have my Bypass Surg. in Tiajuana Mexico. Not gonna lie, the nerves are starting to surface. I don't fear the surgery itself, or the fact that I'm traveling alone, but its the aftermath that I'm stressing about the most, after this 8 week wait. I'm excited to finally be here, but I am really dreading the post surgical chapter. I know its going to be tough, real tough and I think I'm just in my head to much now that the day i here. Wish me luck, Hopefully I'm one of the lucky ones, and everything goes smoothly. Cant wait to give an exciting update,. If there is anyone else have a June bypass or even a recent one, Id love to have someone to compare war stories with. Also, anyone near San Antonio Tx? See ya soon with the future me. 💜

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

        I'm so happy for you! You are about to change your life. I was so glad to get the sleeve done in Dec. I didn't have feelings of regret overall. And I'm down almost 60 lbs. I do feel a little sad at restaurants. I can barely eat half a kid's meal. I get adults meals often because kid ones don't have the same offerings at times. Then I feel obligated to eat on that until it's gone and that can be days. So the restaurant thing isn't great for me. All the rest is fine by me! I love feeling full with very little. I do wish I could drink when eating. And will sip at the end. Just a strong habit to stop. But I'm working on it! You will do fine! Just keep focused on your desire to be different. Not better or worse. But different. I am happy both ways but my low back doesn't like me that heavy. So I listened (also my feet!). LOL! Update us on your journey! I'm not far from you. I'm in Houston. Good luck and I hope it all goes smoothly! Would love to see pics of the town you go to for this. I've never been there. Neat you will be traveling for this! Enjoy the journey. Take it one day at a time. Sometimes a few hours at a time. Follow all recommendations as best you can. 💗

      2. Doughgurl

        Thank you so much for your well wishes. I am hoping that everything goes easy for me as well. We don't eat out much as it is, so it wont be too bad in that department. Thankfully. Also, I hear you regarding your back and feet!! I'd like to add knees to the list. Killing me as we speak! I'm only 5' so the weight has to go. Too short to carry all this weight. Menopause really did a doosey on me. (😶lol) My daughter also lives in Houston. with her Husband and my 5 grand-littles. I grew up in Beaumont, so I know Houston well, I will be sure to keep in touch and update you on my journey. I may need some advice in the future, or just motivation. Thank You so much for reaching out, I was hoping to connect with someone in the community. I really appreciate it. 💜

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        I hope your surgery on Wednesday goes well. You will be able to do all sorts of new things as you find your new normal after surgery. I don't know this from experience yet, but I am seeing a lot of positive things from people who have had it done. Best of luck!

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.
