Normally by this time of May I have gotten all of my flowers and planted them all in their pots/beds/etc. but it’s just been so cold this spring that I put it off.

Maybe I shouldn’t have? This weekend my Menards is just picked over and has sad flowers. Home Depot’s looked in better shape, but the selection of annuals was also sad. Walmart was sad too.

Am I too late? Do I just need to check out other stores? Or wait until midweek and maybe they’ll have gotten new shipments in?

Menards is my preferred just because of price, but I’m not far from Gertens.

First I’ll say, I’ve struggled with loose BMs since I had my gallbladder removed in 2021. I had to be on colestipol for a few years to be able to live a normal life. We tried psyllium husk, among other things as well. Eventually I started weight training, and the high protein diet helped ween my off colestipol.

However over time my body seems to have adjusted to the high protein diet, and I’m back to loose BMs (5 or 6 on the Bristol chart).

I started Wellbutrin a few months ago and that helped a little bit, but just made them more consistently a 5. I’ve now been on 1.5mg for 3 weeks? And I’m consistently a 6 or 7 now. And I’m still getting about 15-20grams of fiber (my usual) every day.

I’m hoping and praying the bulking happens soon. I’m most comfortable and happy at like a 2 or 3, even though I know a 2 technically falls into constipation.

Sorry for the whole TMI. I’m just dying for some solids over here 😂 Wondering if others have had the same experience?
