Doesn't poop stink anyway? > I have to agree with you there...I know several people that do worse in that department than me and they didnt have surgery. I think the only problem I've noticed is sometimes it seems to linger longer...LOL I now us Ozium (??) that I get at Kmart for a couple bucks...its got a clean smell and not overpowering but seems to be quick. I tried the citrus but that was way to overpowering to my nose..>LOL But I'll take the stinky poop and whatever in exchange for losing the extra weight any day!!!! ~*~ AJ ~*~ Age 37 5'8'' Post op 7/24/01 Open DS self pay - Dr Baltasar -Alcoy Spain 07/24/01 BMI 64 415.1 08/24/01 BMI 58 386.5 -28.6 lbs! 09/24/01 BMI 55.8 367.1 -48.0 lbs! -37.75 inches 10/08/01 BMI 54.3 357.1 -58.0 lbs! -50.0 inches 10/24/01 BMI 52.6 346.0 -69.1 lbs! 10/29/01 BMI 52.0 341.5 -73.6 lbs! -58 inches My profile: http://www.obesityhelp.com/morbidobesity/profile.phtml?N=E982002956 My website: www.wls4aj.homestead.com www.wlsbellingham.homestead.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Told ya! <grin> Good stuff..LOL Is this something I'll have to go on and off over the next couple years???? I am suppose to go 7 days...stop and see what happens..then another 7 if still a problem. I also will add back in the good bacteria (can I take it while taking flagl?) and hopefully that will create a good balance! ~*~ AJ ~*~ Age 37 5'8'' Post op 7/24/01 Open DS self pay - Dr Baltasar -Alcoy Spain 07/24/01 BMI 64 415.1 08/24/01 BMI 58 386.5 -28.6 lbs! 09/24/01 BMI 55.8 367.1 -48.0 lbs! -37.75 inches 10/08/01 BMI 54.3 357.1 -58.0 lbs! -50.0 inches 10/24/01 BMI 52.6 346.0 -69.1 lbs! 10/29/01 BMI 52.0 341.5 -73.6 lbs! -58 inches My profile: http://www.obesityhelp.com/morbidobesity/profile.phtml?N=E982002956 My website: www.wls4aj.homestead.com www.wlsbellingham.homestead.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't " get " why some folks are so freaked out about how their poop looks. Don't look at it! LOL. As long as there's no urgency or discomfort involved, what's the worry? Ya know? _________________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
