I've been on my liquid diet for three days now, and have had some problem with diarrhea. Nothing terrible that I'd call the doctor about, but certainly less than ideal. I'm wondering if maybe it's more lactose than I'm used to (I'm drinking Bariatric Advantage, which is kind of gross but it's what my practice gave me), or whether it's something else. Anyone else have this problem?

I've been the opposite for 8 of the 10 days of my liquid diet but yesterday and today my tummy is gurgling real bad and I'm having the runs too. In the past I've had milk/lactose issues but this doesn't seem the same. I'm thinking mine is from the chocolate.

Liquid in, liquid out is what my dr told me. :/

Honestly I'm glad someone else is going through this because I thought my bowels were going nuts.. It make sense. The liquid diet, at least for me, is 5 Optifast shakes and 64 oz of Water at least daily. Your body is probably gonna absorb all of the nutrients it can from the diet which doesn't leave much else to be filtered out and pushed to solid waste... gross i know but tis what it is
