avoid stinky poop : - )
OK u guys....
I found this on-line and posted it on the main board.
I had some positive feedback and thought i better pass it along!!
Not to be too gross....but....
I had a friend that i worked with a few years back...
she had WLS and ate things she should never eat....
(her reason was...i can eat whatever i want...get sick and then i wont gain any weight..I'm guessing they didn't always give the mental tests...lol)
Anyway...she would eat things and then basically "DUMP" them about 20 mins later.
ok..here is where it gets gross....
She would have the worst smelling bowel moments i have ever smelled.
I have worked in the medical field for over 15 years....i have been everything from a CNA to an EMT on an ambulance...trust me when I say I have smelled my fair share of bad smells.
I can not begin to describe to you how bad her bowl movements smelled.
Now keep in mind....she did not eat what she was suppose to eat and she did not follow the "rules".
Dumping is not fun...and it smells bad too. LOL
I will probably not get this right away....but will keep it in mind if it really becomes a problem!
I decided along time ago...that if i ever had WLS i would always carry air freshener in my purse and stick to what i am "suppose" to eat.
When I had my gallbladder out about 12 years ago....i experienced "dumping". Of course it took me awhile to figure out what was going on but then i avoided what was making me so sick. (at that time it was anything fried....i still dont eat Kentucky fried chicken..lol)
I wub you guys!!!!
