    This is common sense for everyone, pre and post sleeve. If you have to really force a fart, then it's probably not a fart and you're going to ruin your pants.

    Yes, I had heard others' stories so I am aware of the possibility, however I was busy doing something and never gave it a thought thinking it was just gas. TMI I know. I'd like to think I do have common sense, most of the time. Live and learn.

    I didn't even have to force it!!!!

    I just innocently farted and all of a sudden I was clenching my butt cheeks and racing for the bathroom...Of course EVERYONE was home and they all laughed at me but I took it in stride...After all, i did just poop my pants.

    Everyone needs a laugh! And what a learning experience this has been. Believe me, once it happens, you will NEVER want to experience it again. On the plus side, I'm tightening up my butt cheeks daily! That's a form of exercise, right? I'm gonna have the tightest butt cheeks around...woohoo! I've also experienced being out and about and you get the urge where you have to go to the bathroom and you're like, 'Oh no. Oh no'...where's the bathroom...I hope it's a 'decent' bathroom where it flushes well...you know the ones, right? And you start to panic because you hope you're gonna make it. Calgon..take me away!
