Are you taking an Iron supplement or drinking anything that is purple or blue? Either of those can turn your stool green.

Well, I'm not sure, just assuming, could it be bile in your stools?? Do you still have your gallbladder??

Lol, I always thought high Protein diets will do it but maybe not. Talk to your doctor but I remember my cousin having green turds and no one thought anything about it.

This is, unfortunately, true. I went on a purple koolaid bender once and had green poop for days!

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
