I don't have this problem although I am frequently constipated. However, alot of wls people have said that this is part and parcel of this surgery. Are you getting enough fiber? Sometimes this is an issue for us, as it is bulky and hard to fit into our diet. Wendy

Hi, Ok... besides the obvious foods... I've noticed a lot of gas in the last couple months and can't figure out what is causing it. It has been almost 2 yrs, down 130 lbs, one 10 month old baby girl, a separation/divorce and I'm now having gas issues! I'm glad for the divorce and was surprised by the pregnancy but all has worked out well and I'm happy (we both are). The only catch (besides looking into plastic surgery) is the bruising and gas. Could it be that I'm lacking something in my diet? Protein? I definitely get enough water in but maybe I need to relook at my eating habits? Does anyone else have any problems? I don't really have any cramping or anything but the gas is on the 'silent but deadly' side here. I definitely do not want to even think of being with a guy with this issue. Can anyone relate?

Thank you Lisa! I don't think you would find it as bad as you think it would be. It was easier than the original surgery and you were able to do that one! But even if you choose not to, it is no big deal. I am glad I did it, but I don't think I look like I wanted to look. I think you have to have realistic pictures in your head of the outcome, and all my pictures in my head were fantasies of how gorgeous, I would be. I look better, but do not look very perfect. I still have spots that bother me and I don't think I will ever be satisfied. So if you are happy with yourself now that is great and I hope you keep on feeling good! Wendy

Thanks Pam! I would be happy if I stay this weight, but it is possible I will go down a little more. I never really thought I would get this far, but darned if I haven't. Two years is a long time to wait, but it has been so worth it! Thanks for all the love and support. Wendy

WTG Wendy!!
