I am almost 7 months out now and have lost 97 lbs. No real problem until now which I am wondering if anyone else has this problem. Recently I have lots of gas which can be very embarrassing. Has anyone found an answer to this, or is there a magic pill that one can take. Really need help with this problem.

Hey Jerry, I personally don't have this problem, but have a fellow CA OHer that does. She found a pill to help it not be so stinky! I don't know if it helped with the amount of gas at all - Not sure which is your problem, but if you want it, I'll ask her to PM you the details. Just let me know! Hang in there! - Perhaps it will go away as suddenly as it came. ???

I have that problem as well. You need to pay attention to what you are eating. Somethings cause more problems than others. You can try gas-x. Tammy

I too have noticed it a little.....I believe it is definitely from eating the new foods our new stomach doesn't really like (CARBS). Just my opinion (??) Shelley J in MN

Yep! I'm right in there with ya' (stinking up the room ) I have found that it happens even when I eat nothing but protein for the day. It most certainly can be embarassing because the smell of the gas (to me) is worse than before because there's something about it that just lingers in the air and won't go away! My doc suggested I try an OTC product called Devrom. It's supposed to be an internal deodorant. It doesn't get rid of the amount of gas, but it is supposed to make the smell better. I haven't tried it yet so I'll let you know if it really works. The other thing that helps me is Acidophilous (sp?). I bought some chewable tablets that taste really good from my grocery store. I pop a couple before my meals and it seems to control the tummy rumbling that I get every blue moon.
