you do not absorb as much Donna, so more comes out!! I bet you also have much smaller bowel movements. Also, there is a normal sloughing process in the bowel that also produces some of the excrement. It's ok, you are fine!!

I thought this was weird as well, but my surgeon informed me that it was perfectly normal, nothing to be alarmed about. It took me about 6 weeks until I finally got "regular". I'll go in the morning once or twice and that's it for the day. Renee D
