Hi,

I have had some similar but not identical experiences. First off, if your going 2x/day, that seems like a very low amount to me. I go 4-6 times per day and I consider that a very good day for me.

there are some days when I eat less than the day before, its seems like my BMs are very large and frequent. It seems like I am purging several days of food. It’s weird.

I try not to worry about changes unless it’s going to affect my QOL. Try to get back to your normal routine, you know, the one where everything seems to be working out just fine. You know your body and what works and does not work.

as to going right after you eat, well that seems like something that would happen when we had a colon. Perhaps your new plumbing is behaving more like a colon these days?  Waking up to go,  yeah, i get up once to go also.

Yeah, I had that exact thought of my body like ‘emptying out’ which is why I’m going so frequently. When I’m on my menstrual cycle everything gets really backed up.

Yes, I go 2-3 times a day normally, but it’s always been great for me and I’ve never experienced any ‘bad effects’, for lack of a better word.

Just kind of annoyed at this new switch up. This jpouch loves to keep me on my toes!
