I'm just wondering, does anyone else have problems with milk products? Mine is really weird. 6 years out & I can't drink milk, I do well with LIGHT yogurt or Greek yogurt and cottage cheese. (I'm also obsessed with cottage cheese) but milk hurts me SOOOO bad!

I had RNY and became lactose intolerant. Apparently it is a common side effect.

I had RNY gastric bypass surgery 3 years ago. Right after the surgery I became lactose intolerant. Whenever I drank milk, my stomach would hurt, then a quick trip to the bathroom with diarrhea. That condition lasted for two months and then I was back to normal. During that time I avoided anything that contained lactose. Some Protein shakes contain lactose.

Try lactase free milk.

I've tried lactose free, but it does the same thing. It just takes a little longer to effect me.

That's all I can drink. Lactaid is the best. Wait a few weeks and try it again.

I tried lactaid brand milk and I'm still going to the bathroom. But I'm also only 7 days post op. Afraid to try it anymore lol.

I am 8 years post op and I cannot tolerate any sort of ice cream.....even the no sugar added kind. Not real good with milk either. I have tried Lactaid and the Lactaid ice cream and it's a no go for me. I can eat yogurt, cottage cheese and any type of cheese with no issues. I think it is an individual thing and you have to find out what does and doesn't work for you.

I am 6 months out and cannot tolerate milk at all. It sucks! I can tolerate cream cheese though. I eat like crazy.
