can I be disgusting for a minute?!

[DgotSleeved 103]

so today I've have the big d allllllllll day!! haven't changed anything regarding diet, got over 100g of Protein, 70 oz of water... does anyone else get diarrhea randomly? the only thing I can think of..today was the first time I've had crystal light since like November.. and 2 sugar free hard candies. think it's the sugar free?

Could be the aspartame or maybe your body was like holy hell I have to get rid of some of this sh*t...literally

[Pepper123 320]

Yes it happens to me maybe twice a week...and its horrible.....

[LipstickLady 25,682]

Yup. That's normal for me.

[BeagleLover 1,020]

When I was diabetic, sugar free hard candies and gum gave me problems due to the sugar alcohols in them... not an uncommon problem.

[chubbsey1 126]

Yep those sugar alcohols can be the Devil! Maltitol from a sugar free cookie almost caused a Level 111 meltdown in my shorts while on quite a long subway ride into the city. ????????

[joatsaint 2,814]

Sugar alcohols will cause me to have loose BMs. Years ago, when I was doing Atkins, I took 6 sugar free pecan turtles (yes, the experience made such an impression, I remember it 10 years later! ) to the movies. I ate all 6, and in 30 minutes, I was running to the bathroom. Lesson learned.

This is another great "argument" for logging your food. I don't do sugar free because I try to eat clean, but I know when I eat a cookie or a brownie, I have poop Soup the next day. Same if I eat heavy dairy. I can also see what makes me constipated. Pooping is a whole new science after WLS.

thanks everyone!!! and I can understand running!!!! lol I was in the car on my way home from school (we wear WHITE scrub pants!!!) and thought I was going to ruin a pair of pants. I will definitely not trust fluffs until this gets sorted out ????????????

[DgotSleeved 103]

@@LipstickLady I log every single bit of anything that goes in my mouth. it definitely does help!!! and I also started a different calcium citrate yesterday but Calcium doesn't cause poopies lol. so it def has to be either crystal light or my mints that I will be doing without! ????????????

[CowgirlJane 14,259]

Well, it apparently happens to even non WLS people!
