It's TMI Tuesday!! 😉

So I had supper at 6pm then at about 6:30pm it was bathroom time. Well I'm fairly confident that what came out actually WAS supper. Lol. Is that even possible? Seems a bit far fetched that food can get through 25 feet of intestine that quickly? Lol.

I'm having the opposite issue. I haven't pooped since Friday. I had a little pink goo last night haha but I don't think that counts whatever it was

 

[sagette]

It can. Hopefully, you are not heading toward a flare and it was just something that disagreed with your stomach.

It can happen bit I thought the majority of the time it takes several hours. I hope you feel better soon.

Yes that can happen, on bad days I make sure to be near a loo around 20 mins after I eat. If I have a soft boiled or poached egg I can virtually set the clock at 20 minutes exactly!

Yup.....same here - it is amazing how fast food can travel when your insides don't want it in there!!!!!

Count me in. It's like dropping a pebble down a drainpipe sometimes.

This happens to me with chipotle. I love getting a bowl to eat but 20 minutes after I'm done, I create my own bowl in the toilet. Sorry for the graphic details

Yep, I've had that happen as well. I had these peppermint capsules awhile back and I'd use them as "sentinels" of a sort so that I could gauge my digestive transit time. I'd take a peppermint capsule and then wait. Sometimes it was only 15 or 20 minutes later, I'd have to use the bathroom, and sure enough - minty smelling poo! The peppermint made it through me that quickly.

I've heard other people on the forum say they'll eat something indigestible, like a few kernels of corn, and see how long it takes for them to see the corn come out the other end. So I'm apparently not alone in sending a sentinel through my digestive system!

 

[stylinmama]

Ya. I'm flaring. Can't find a Dr who is willing to give me any meds either so I guess it'll be this way until June (another colonoscopy appointment).

I have sort of done the same thing cat-a-tonic. Haha. I never actually tried to do it though, just noticed the corn in the toilet. Lol.
