Well I had my RNY on the 20th. Glad to be home. Question, when does the watery diarrhea end?

UMMMM. Sad to say for me there is no happy medium. It is either horrible Constipation or watery diarrhea.

I will take the watery diarrhea over the constipation any day though.

I am two years post op.

I had to do Protein drinks 2 weeks preop and 4 weeks postop. I suffered BAD with Diarrhea. My Surgeon finally told me that I was Lactose Intolerant. Maybe this is what is going on with you. I also am afraid to take anything for diarrhea because then I get constipated or the other way around. One extreme to the other with me.

I had same operation the same day and haven't gone to bathroom yet. I just ate purée for first time so hopefully that will break the seal. LOL. I was taking a lot of pain pills for both my knees bone on bone and 3 bad discs. So I guess we'll see. I hope yours slows down. If your not too careful that could turn into dehydration.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?
