Farting...sorry!!!

[StephieAck]

Sorry about the topic guys but I am just very curious.
Since the bypass I have been a really farty arsed madam!!!
I used to be windy before the op but only when I ate junk food. I dont eat junk food any more but since the op I have the most noisy, persistant farting lol
It isnt trapped gas so I dont take anything for it, you would never know about it as I am good at disguising it but its still an aspect of my new life...farting and all lol
Anyone else?

I used to fart like a carthorse before my band...I don't so much any more. It's weird....maybe the reduced food or the kind of food you have now has that effect on you. I know some sweetners can make you react like that..

 

[StephieAck]

Must be some of the food because I dont have sweetners. I cant stand the taste of them yuckkkkkkkkkk.

Before the op I could not pass wind. Now I cannot stop! I find that I am worse the more carbs I eat. Thing is that they are rather smelly too so I have to move quick away from people when I feel I have to let one go!

 

[StephieAck]

Hahahahahahahaha me too lol though not always bad smelling.
I am on a reducing my carbs drive so we shall see if that helps.

I suffer with terrible wind post op - it gets aggrivated by eating any carbs like bread & rice. My tum is much more sensative to what I eat now, for instance mushy peas etc too.
My issue is the SMELL of the farts. They literally make me gag and my hubby thinks its funny, until Im in bed and he ends up gagging! It is horrific! LOL

OMG My poor hubby.....I fart like a docker now according to him

 

[Fashionably Late]

I never farted prior to my bypass and now I am awful Oh well, they may stink but I am 78 pounds lighter!

 

[StephieAck]

Hubby says mine smell like baby poo lol
And I would gladly take this farting over being the person I was any day.

LOL!!!!! So glad I am not the only one!!!!!! xxxxx

You do realise that even if they are stinky, no-one will believe the slim glamourpuss types you all are , are responsible for the pooting! win - win situation no?

 

[gaelic girl]

Lol we are a "loud and smelly" bunch hee hee! I'm sure you guys can hear me South of the border lol they are that loud. Used to be able to fart descreetly but now with the noise and the smell thats an impossible task lol xx

 

[thinnerangela]

Oh I knew bowel issues could be a side effect of a DS but I'm glad I'm not alone!!

Every afternoon I trump like heck till about now - sometimes it develops sometimes it just passes

Sometimes they are silent - sometimes loud sometimes deadly - there seems to be no rhyme nor reason to it

And I can't always hold it - so whether church or chapel I have to let it rattle

Glad to see I'm in good company

I'm the opposite I used to fart like a trooper pre op, now I rarely do but I can belch for England nowadays.

 

[jaxx]

Pre-op I had terrible IBS and was constantly taking immodium and of course, had terrible wind. But now I'm permanently constipated and have very little wind! lol
