Gas
Yes, Yes, Yes!!!!! I keep a stash of Gas-x strips in my desk. It really doesn't help much. I watched an episode of Dr. Oz a month or two ago, and someone complained about the same problem (but I don't think she was a bariatric patient). He said the odor was caused by processed foods, and that eliminating processed foods from your diet would eliminate the problem. I don't eat that much processed food, but I tried to cut them out completely. Helped a little, not completely. At the Del Sol group, they talked about internal deodorant (Devrom) and a charcoal panty liner to eliminate the odor. I haven't tried any of them.
