No constipation here

I just had my surgery on Tuesday.  I keep seeing talking constipation but I have exact opposite issue.  Is this normal since I am still on liqui diet?

Yes, the problem is usually diarrhea very early out and then constipation after you start eatingsolid food.  If you get enough liquid, fats, and fiber, though, you can avoid much of the problem with constipation.

I am afraid so.  It was very unsettling for me at first too, but after 2 weeks on clear/full liquids, I realized that this was normal.  I can say it does become more normal once you are on regular solid food.

Thanks everyone.  Hopefully it gets better soon because I am nervous to even leave house much less to drive an hour for post check up
