"When we get further in with some more fills, it will become more softer. But right now this is pretty much what your next bowel movement would be. And you can feel me prompt. Are you doing okay?

Fruit is a snack to be eaten alone; either 45 minutes before your meal or 2 to 3 hours after. By eating them together causes fermentation and gas production.
