Searched the database and haven't seen this addressed-gross. sorry!

I am post open RNY (Feb 2001 -52lbs) and have had no problems at all, but a strange thing happened yesterday and I was wondering if it has happened to anyone else. I ate chicken salad and a few fries from a restaurant (yes, I splurged) and last night when I pooped there was orange oily drops floating on the water. I also noticed this happening once when I ate Spaghettios with Meat Balls. (I know it looks like I am not eating well, but I usually eat much better than this (protein, salad, etc.) and that is probably why I have not had this happen more often) Anyway it is weird. Was this because the meal was high in fat and my body didn't absorb it? That would be good I guess, but it reminded me of what some people who tried Xenical described happening to them and I am not taking any meds other than vitamins and Previcid. Just wondering what may have caused this. Thanks!
