jennycash Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 I'm on day 4 of my whole30 and loving it so far. 2 things I'm curious about: I have gotten up to pee in the middle of the night since I started, sometimes 2xs a night. I do have a small bladder but haven't been chugging more water than usual. Also, my hubs and I (he's also whole30) are pooping less. We don't feel constipated at all (well, he has ulcerative colitis, so that's an anomaly), but yeah, we're both light on the BM's. What gives?

Laura B Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 I don't know for sure, but I would guess that grains add a lot of "filler" to your diet. Maybe they are smaller because your volume has decreased by eliminating grains? Your body is also transitioning still, so it could be a number of things, that's just my guess.

Moderators Tom Denham Posted August 5, 2012 Moderators Share Posted August 5, 2012 On day 4 your body is making changes. You may be peeing more because your body was holding water it no longer needs while eating Whole30 foods. I would expect the extra peeing to stop soon. Having smaller or less bowel movements suggests your food volume is down. I used to eat Fiber One cereal several times per day back in the old days, so, trust me, I understand going less on a Whole30 diet. Overall, however, eating lots of veggies should keep you regular.
