Sharing the poo smell with the neighbors

"A. As a public service maybe spray before you vent."
Actually I do spray, but it just mixes with the smell. I use citrus magic and it just smells like orange flavored stink!
Yep, I've noticed the further out I am I have more smelly poos. I think it is connected to carbs. When I don't eat very many carbs they are not bad at all.
Quirky.... lol Its not THAT bad..just distinctive... and if worrying about offending coworkers makes you not want surgery or choose one you know isn't as effective.. You may want to rethink the DS...
personally, I don't give a frig that my coworkers smell it.. I work in a building with 3000 people. Their **** doesn't smell like roses either..
seriously though..would you really let a little funky smelling poop stop you from getting a wonderful way to become healthy again?
I really hope you are kidding... I will assume you were.

That said, I thought the whole "poop smelling like a rotting carcass" thing was largely an exaggeration. It's just this thread frightened me. I can deal with it. I've dealt with being fat since I was 5. I'm just dreading smelling like a walking corpse now.
I've heard of this a few times, but in my 5 months since getting the DS haven't experienced it yet. The closest thing to these wild storied I've experienced is when I ate a bunch of Dreamfields pasta and it turned my into a methane factory for a few hours. The amount of gas I produced was impressive, but there was very little smell to go along with all the gas. Heck Barb can sneak out a much more lethal SBD than what the pasta gave me.
I'm guessing that everyone is different and that means you won't know how your system is going to respond until you get your DS. Once you get your DS, you will figure out what you can and can't eat to get the desired result.

I'm glad to see there are products to help combat the scent. I knew Febreze and Lysol wouldn't be effective.

On the fence about self-pay options and if Mexico is the right choice (or scared of that option)? Let my experience (first time ever in Mexico) be your guide. Don't let fear hold you back!
