post op 6 months

I had bariatric. surgery everything has been fine no problem but since February hit out of the blue I get the munchies and I get gas very very bad no matter what i eat I get gas so bad I burp so much I just stop eating my doctor say don’t worry it will pass will it been a month going on two it’s still here and I stop losing weight does anyone know what is going on with me do i have to go back in and start all over again that was so hard to do any advice would help please thank you

I'm sorry to tell you this, but excess gas is a by product of a gastric bypass surgery. Due to malabsorption more food reaches your colon before it is digested which results in higher levels of gas (not to mention a more malodorous variety). I believe there are some treatments to help counter this (supplements and, don't laugh but they make charcoal filters for your pants).

As for the weight loss that's a different thing and it's hard to make a recommendation without knowing where you are in the journey. Are you closing in on your goal weight or are you looking at what looks like a stall without explanation far from your goal?

Hi I am 50 pounds close to my go weight and for my gas problem it more burping very bad burping from my mouth I hardly go from the other end i wish I did some days I just don’t want to eat it’s a lot

Have you tried over the counter gas relief (gas-x)? Also other than the burping is it accompanied by any other symptom like heartburn?

yes I have tried that and beano nothing works i just don’t know what else I don’t get heartburn just burping a lot

Can I ask, are you eating slowly? My advisory was that burping is often an early symptom of 8ndigestion - eating a bit much or a bit fast.

As for your comment that you are not losing weight just now - maybe just a stall?

How many calories a day are you getting? And grams of protein? Oz or water??

75 grams water 30 oz i am trying to get more in 1200 calories a day will i try too but i get full fast
