2 years ago today nearly died in Sx- 3 rd ileo surgery in 40 years- now high output. Was losing tons of weight despite eating for 2 grown men, drinking tons of water for hydration and weight all over from 100-106. 3 weeks starting making my own isotonic drink packets- I gained 8 lbs the first week and am now 111-114- haven't seen those numbers in 2 years- if you are high output - follow the diet plan for SBS- it changed my life
