Diarrhea

[c86mc 24]

I'm doin ok when I eat. No "dumping" or sickness. But the past few days I've been having diarrhea throughout the day. Especially in the morning. Is this in fact dumping? Is it normal?

Right after surgery I became lactose intolerant. Every time I drank milk or dairy products, it lead to an immediate stomach ache and a trip to the restroom with diarrhea. Therefore I stopped drinking milk. Be forewarned some Protein shakes contain lactose. After about 2 months this condition went away.

Your body does not process fats and sugars, so if you consume some of these, it will pass through your stomach and colon and produce diarrhea. After about a year your intestines will figure out something is wrong and learn to process these types of food.

I had diarrhea for days too, but then... it suddenly stopped (so did my wt.)... as a matter of fact, I gained a couple of lbs. (Surgery date 12/28)
