TMI - Optitrots bathroom question

So I'm on day 5 of Opti, and have had the optitrots (perhaps it should be opti-rots!) for a couple of days now.  What I'm wondering is exactly what is coming out of me?  Is this fibrous dark stuff that sinks to the bottom of the toilet bowl something leftover inside me from years ago, or is it whatever the opti turns into.  Sometimes it's a fair bit, sometime it's a little bit - just wondering exactly what it is besides gross!

It is your body getting rid of all the old crap. No pun intended....lol. On a serious note that is what it is suppose to do. Your liver is getting cleaned out and all the other had stuff that is accumated. Although it isn't the greatest thing to have to go through it is good to let it happen. Keep hydrated. Things should get better in a couple of days. Hang in there.

Hi Megan,

Thanks for posting about this.  I`ve not started Optifast yet, but it is good to know this may occur.

Im day ten and your post sounds just like mine did...It will get better in a day or two for sure!
