Karima it is so exciting you are moving! Will give you a new look on life.

I had the small wormy very frequent movements also. Could not even sit and eat a

small meal without running upstairs. Since they took out the scar tissue and

opened the striture things are great. I do go more then most people as I lack

some colon and rectum but it has made my life so much better. Normal size

movements. I eat anything I want now after being on the soft no fiber diet for

so long a time. I think lots of fiber helps if you can handle it but I was so

closed up I could not.

Was talking with a old friend the other day who has leukemia. She has been so

constipated because of all the pain meds and the Dr gave her senocot and a stool

softner. She went twice that day and was so excited. I laughed and said did you

ever think years ago we would be sitting here talking about these things and

being so exited over them.

Re: Good Morning all

Me too very excited with the move.

I'm wondering if I shoud start and end my day with Citrucel; I hate these

multiple wormy movements. Wormy = small.

I have gotten pretty good with breakfast foods and other meal too. Trying for

two meals a day. If I don't hav emuch food in the house, it's pastina.

I got the porta potty and cabana so I'll be ready if I need them.

Oh Hil, your note had me hilarious especially the part about " sitting and

talking about these things " . I said that to my friend Judy the other day only

my phrasing was who'd ever think we would have this in common??

Yes you are right, I will have a new look on life and am looking forward to it.

I too lack some colon and the rectum but still count myself lucky

I am still curious about how fast food goes from in to out. Anybody???

I read recently how you could tell how fast it went through by eating something

that would show up and give you a idea. The only thing I can remember though is

beets. You will see beets or the color when they come out:) That tells you how

long it took to get through.

I seemed to start running as soon as I started eating a meal. The surgeon said

that was because it just started everything going but I have never figured it

out. Now things are so much better but I still notice if I just snack most of

the day I don't make many trips upstairs. I usually start going after my dinner

and of course I am also a night eater and eat from dinner time till bedtime. No

more having to get up during the night though.

I cannot eat at night or I am up all night. I hate it.
