My tummy has rumbling and tumbling noises seems like non-stop. Too many close cases where gas turned out to be diarrhea. When will this part end? I ate two Fiber one yogurts and 24 grams of protien today.

If it makes you feel any better, I too am three days post-op and experiencing the same symptoms. I have been taking 1-2 Gas X strips every two or three hours and that has helped the gas and other bodily functions subside a bit. It's extremely annoying, but I'm taking it as a good sign that my body's systems are starting to get back in order! Oh, I have also been taking hot showers and walking to take some of the edge off of the stomach rumbling and gas. They both seem to help.

Good luck!

Check your Protein shakes' nutritional label. The ones I drank had additional fiber. I'm sure being on liquids can also cause things to be a little "loose".

Hi! I was banded on 2/24 and I also have terrible diaherria. I think it's subsiding though. I don't think it's from anything I've eaten (which is next to nothing). Pain medication, the gas used and the fact that someone was tromping around in my intestines seems to be a logical reason for this.

I'm looking forward to this symptom disappearing. :(

I had my initial surgery in 12/07 and I don't remember this happening...but I just had a revision surgery a few days ago and have been experiencing these same symptoms. I'll be honest though, I'm not going to push it. I am staying on very thin liquids all week...even if that continues happening. It's worth it to make sure I heal correctly, you know??

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
