Liquid in - Liquid out. It's normal. Also, be grateful for it. Can you imagine just having liquid and being constipated, after surgery? I've heard people say how painful it is. Liquid out with the gas is a bit painful still to me, but I feel better that something is coming out. I have had several bowel obstructions in my life, and I know I'm doing okay because I'm passing the liquid. As your diet progresses so will the bm's change.

Thanks. I am still prep diet. I needed the reassurance. I suppose I am going to be "cleaned out" for the surgery. I am close enough I can check the weather on S day!

Yup, what MinaT said. I also decided water/Gatorade on the day before surgery as I had done for previous procedures. For me, pain meds really constipate me so the last thing I wanted was to have that issue after stomach surgery.

I don't know if it helped/hurt me, but, as others have mentioned, it was at least a week before I had my first BM and then needed Milk of Magnesia to keep everything moving.

Good luck on your big day and keep us posted
