I remember seeing Dr. Oz on Oprah talking about healthy poop. I recall him saying you want it to float because the fat is leaving your body, causing the poop to float. He also wants it to be s-shaped.

If I were able to take a crap I would tell you. I have heard the sinking/floating thing before in regards to too much fat in ones diet.

HAHAHAHAHA, I mean, so sorry you can't crap. ;)

Well, I never paid much attention before this thread. I used to go daily (preband) but now go every few days. I know it's because I don't eat enough veggies and fruits- but I try so hard just to get in the rec. Protein.

Anyway.... so this was weird. Half floated and half sunk.

Well, I finally managed to have a BM and it was a sinker. I still dont know what that means and I am not certain that I care, it was nice to actually be able to go!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
