Poop Question

[Mid West 99]

Hi, has anyone else had lighter coloured poop since their bypass? I'm thinking it's because of the malabsorbtion aspect of RNY as when I was on Xenical which blocks the absorbtion of some fat, I had the same thing.

I read that light poo can be a sign of liver problems so I went for a liver function test and all was fine. Just checking (hoping) I'm not the only one :-)

I have the same exact thing. Liver function is fine also

Thanks :-) Glad it's not just me!

I am 8 months post op and I am having the same issues; I am glad that I am not the only one experiencing this.

It's also a sign of low Iron.< /p>

Seems like we're normal then :-)

if Iron is low and doctor recommands iron pills, poo will turn green and smell will be bad.
