Help, still diahria?

Im on day 32 or 33 off methadone. Im starting to lose count of the days:) the only things i havent completly got back yet is my digestive system. I still am getting diahria. Ive noticed tho that the crappier foods i eat the more normal my stools are. Now if i eat healthy all day, watching what i eat i.e. No sugar, caffeine, bad fats, butter, fried anything and etc. i get diahria or really loose stools. Im just wondering if this is normal or if i have something else is possibly wrong with me? Anything and everything is welcomed...

My GI tract didn't get back to normal until about 2 months off of suboxone, and methadone can be even worse, so i'd say that's to be expected. Keep it up, praying for ya!

Holy crap this made me laugh....totally not laughing at you!  I was crapping tapioca for months after I w/d.  As soon as I ate, it went right through me, no matter what I ate.  It will level out but this is what I kept in mind while this was happening....your body gets rid of things it doesn't want or need....your obviously retaining enough nutrients that your still upright.  In the beginning I really figured it was my body getting the dope remnants out of my system....
Have you tried using the Immodium to maybe lessen the effects?

Curd is good food. Stay hydrated plus essential salts, minerals and vitamins. I also strongly believe that starting to walk, run, cardio or any light exercise is going to speed your recovery, health and wellbeing, no matter how much lazy you feel or difficult it feels for you to do the same. But a 10 minutes walk on a regular basis can really bring magic to your progress. Take care!

I'm on day 65 off Norco, and my stomach still gets upset, and I've noticed kind of the same thing, and I read online that the crappier foods tend to block up your system, as the healthy foods promote toxins being released from your body. I've already taken 4 imodium this morning haha.
