I have a redundant colon and do everything you are doing. My main difference is I had my gallbladder removed 30+ years ago (I am 60 years old). My body does not digest food well or quickly. I take the Zen Wise Digestive Enzymes and have found them to be extremely helpful and affordable. If I am eating anything high in fat I take 2 Cholacol. Intermittent fasting has helped me as well. I normally only eat between noon and seven but that is easy for me. I do not do it to diet, but to assist with my digestion. It did help me lose 10 lbs I had wanted to lose for a decade though. I do order Clear Lax from Sams as it is much cheaper than the Mira Lax and works equally as well for me. I eat an apple or an orange every day and drink an electrolyte drink throughout the day. I usually get around 16 + hours of exercise a week I do not trust doctors as I have never had a good experience with one and rely on groups like this to navigate my way through. So far so good and the very best of luck to you
I hope so as it’s so frustrating. I don’t know if you had your surgery yet or not but hope it’s a success and no more problems for you. By the way - I love your profile pic.
