Hello All
Advice needed. I’m 5 weeks post op. I’m struggling with a lot of pain on occasions (random) with drinking water and eating!! Like sharp contractions but worse! Can last seconds / minutes or hours!
My stools are very pale almost white! Plus I’ve not lost any weight in like 2 weeks in fact I’ve gained weight!! Help!!

the two week thing is the infamous "three week stall". Almost everyone experiences it. Here are the 17,501 posts on it on this site (and no, I am NOT kidding):

weird color poop isn't uncommon the first month or two after surgery. I think paleness usually indicates fat malabsorption, which isn't a huge surprise. I think mine was normal colored after about the first month.

as for the pain thing, I'd run that by your clinic. I'm not sure what that is- could be a lot of things, I think. They might want to do a scope or something to see what's going on.
