Do the frequent craps ever stop or is there something wrong with me?  I seem to have to go about an hour after eating something or drinking a protein shake.  And one time I had dill seasoning in my food and well let's just say I didn't digest it apparently.  I don't have any cramps or other symptoms either.  Oh I should also metion it is always loose stool.

From what I know about this subject, you will get a different anwser from just about everyone. Some are struggling with loose, some constipation and some become normal after years of never having normal bowel movements!  But you do know it is normal to go after every meal...at least that is what Dr Oz says on Oprah! Are you taking a stool softner or fish oil? Those things will keep you loose. But you sure dont want to get bound up....that seems even worse on us after surgery.... GOOD luck! lol!

No I am not on stool softener or fish oils.  I have flax seed but have not started using it yet.  It smells gawd aweful.  I been thinking and wondering if it could possibly be the tuna fish I eat.  I started tuna day before yesterday and it seems like that is when it got worse.

Could possibly be the tuna I suppose, but who knows at this point...??? Maybe quit it for a day or so and see if it helps. Or try some hard cheeses to see if it will tighten the stool. And cheese is good for you and high in protien. lol!

I take fish oil and flax seed oil and stool softeners..just to stay normal.

Is your flax seed oil and actual oil? Mine are in capsules...NO SMELL!

dont think there is anything wrong. I did this too about 2 months and when i started getting other foods in the loose stools stopped. then i became constipated lol of course wouldnt you know that would be the case.  i now have to take 2 stool softeners a day and fish oil and flax seed oil too. all of this to say everyone does different i think. but if you are worried about it. check with your doctor. ok....

My flaxseed is milled so it is ground up like a seasoning that I sprinkle in my foods.

Hey Jen, Like Sugar & Jan said, everyone is different.  I hardly go at all.  I had a bm while in the hospital last time, then didn't go again until this Tuesday.  I got pretty excited this morning . . .  I had my first "normal" bm.  No old blood!!!  woo hoo!  yes, I'm easily excited!   lol  I would say things will probably slow down once you're able to get a little more food in. 

I'm getting anxious to see you girls this next Thursday!!!  Can't wait!    (((HUGS))) Angy

Well the thing is I am getting alot of foods in and variety as well.  I am thinking it is some of the foods doing it.  I am most certain of one food, so we will see how the next couple days go.
