I am 3 weeks out and seem to be doing fine with things. However I still have diahrea almost every day. If I don't have it I generally don't have a BM that day. Is this normal?

For me that was the case on liquids and mushies. Once I moved to slightly firmer foods like tuna salad, chicken salad, etc that went away. Where are you at in your eating? If your diet is still pretty liquid-y, then so will be everything that comes out.

I spent very little time on liquids and moved quickly to mushy. My pre-op daily "routine" was once a day. Now, normal for me is a couple of times per week. Usually firm. However, on that special day, I may go 2 or 3 times. Its like when the chute finally gets full - it empties. LOL

And that is a great time to get on the scale! haha!

Check your Protein powders. I had violent diahrea from around day 10 post op. I discovered that the Protein powder that I was using was the culprit. I had to switch to Muscle Milk Light in the ready to drink because it was lactose free. After a few weeks I was able to tolerate the Optimum Nutrition powder again. I still used unsweetened soymilk or almond milk. I do fine with yogurt, cheese etc.

Good luck!

I also had diarrhea violently I might add for about 12 days until I decided to try Benefiber. within 2 days mmy diarrhea was gone. I now have some constipation but I prefer that. LOL If I go without my fiber I start right back into the diarrhea again.
