I have short gut syndrome. I only have 2ft of my small intestines. I had a small bowel obstruction in 2019 and had 2 surgeries to fix the obstruction. For the first year,I was eating soft well cooked easy to digest foods and low fiber foods. I drink fluids with sodium and glucose (sugar) in them to help with absorption. Plain water doesn't absorb enough in my body. Now I am able to eat what I want to eat but it needs to be low fiber. I chew my food well. Small meals several times a day. I drink one Boost plus a day to help with weight gain. I am needing to gain weight but it hasn't happened very easily with short gut syndrome. I weighed over 140 lbs. in 2019 now I weigh under 115 lbs. I have been getting constipated alot lately which isn't good for short gut syndrome. People with short gut syndrome should have soft stools or diarrhea but not formed stools that is a sign of constipation.
I had my gallbladder removed also in 2019 but haven't noticed any problems with that.
