Does anyone else get excited about a great POOP?

I know to some, this may be inappropriate, but I am a believer that ones bm's are a direct result of nutrition.  For the first 3-4 years after my rny, I had err atic poops.  Now, because of proper nutrition, vitamins and water, my poops are a joy.  Yes, I said it...A JOY.  So there, I got it out.  This rant is ALMOST.  ALMOST, as relieving as a good poop.  Happy nutrition and health friends.

LOL! Too funny and so true!

LOL thats funny.I am 3weeks post-op and didnt have a BM until 5 days later and boy did it hurt. Was constapated and now Im doing ok.but thats is so true about the healthy BM..thanks for posting. Im sure on here, anything goes..lol

LOL! Yes, there's a great deal of satisfaction in a good poop--especially if you've ever experienced the joys of constipation. (*grin*)

I guess I've never really been able to nail down what a good POOP really is. Should it float, sink, bob, smear, be smooth, be lumpy, or what? Before surgery I went 3-4 times a day all different types. After surgery I go once a day (rarely do I miss a day and rarely do I go twice or more in a day) and ALL of them sink and a lot of them are kind of rough to get out like they're too big (round). I've had a few that are unbelievably long, I mean LONG like a darn snake. 

That is the funniest emoticon ever!!!!!  I can so relate! 

Ha ha!  To have a movement that doesn't hurt a bit and is a nice consistency is a great thing.  Since surgery I have quite the various poops.  So I guess my nutrition is still a work in progress.

Every time I poop I think of how happy I am and how I took pooping for granted before surgery!!! lol  Just yesterday I was thinking about starting a thread about it and am glad you did cause I know I"m not the only one who feels this way :)

You've been reading my diary.

What is your secret?  I think I have it all worked out, get into a routine and things are moving along fine (no pun intended) and then, with absolutely no change in anything I have problems.  I've been so plugged up I was praying for diarrhea or even booking a colonoscopy to get cleaned out.  I'll never forget my birthday last year because I woke up and had the best BM I've had in a long time and it was a perfect birthday present.  Geez, have I gotten old or what?
