Using the bathroom after breaking a fast.

Hi All,

I’ve been intermittent fasting and every time I have my first and meal break my fast, I notice that an hour later I have to use the restroom. Which is fine, but, my stool is somewhat loose and slightly yellow.

My stool is not like that every time I go use the restroom. Typically it’s normal except when I break my fast and use the restroom after.

Does anyone have this issue?

Again want to reiterate I’m not sick, feel sick, take any medication or have any conditions.

Thanks

This should help. The fact that you only notice this during a fast is rather interesting. I wonder if you have Giardiasis that hasn’t been caught. Fasting might make it stand out more. I would consult a doctor about this to be on the safe side. It can be a number of issues.

Answer

I water fast 4-7 days per month.

During the last few days of fast, my bowl movements are liquid gold, and I love it. My system is cleaning. 1 day after consuming foods I’m back to award winning, beautiful textured bowel movements.

I had my gallbladder removed 2 years ago.
