i inadvertently found a way to super thicken output. It being a beautiful Fall here in NY, I'm craving apples. I've been eating wine sap apples like they're going out of style. I've also noticed that my output has thickened a lot. I hope this isn't TMI, but when I go to empty my bag and turn it upside down, my output doesn't move - I actually have to push on the bag to get everything out. I thought I'd share for those who may be having trouble thickening things up. Paulette, I know you said your output varies inexplicably, but maybe the apples can help with the hydration issues.

Thank you Lambiepie. I have an apple a day in my morning protein smoothie which also includes blueberries, banana and other frozen fruits and carrots and kale for 6 servings of fruits/veggies. 

I still need to take 8 Loperamide and 2 servings of Metamucil mixed with applesauce to keep everything coming out in a good consistency. 8 months since my j-pouch removal and things have calmed down. It has been a long process. I  think my small intestines had to have time to adjust to the new waste removal System!
