Let’s Talk Poo 12 (Day 5)

Well, today was a bust. Lee couldn’t produce enough ‘material’ to create an infusion so we took the day off. Ashley was bummed because she is just wants to ‘get this over with’. Lee was disappointed because it means one more day until he can gorge himself on candy.

I suspect that Lee isn’t eating as much lately because he feels like he needs to eat ALL high fiber foods and he’s extra concerned about getting the fiber. This means less of the bulky foods he would normally eat. Tomorrow I’m going to encourage him to eat more bulky foods and supplement with fiber.

If this is the worst set back we have, I’ll take it!
