Hello,

I did TO on the 14th & 15th and all last week I had really bad stomach pains.. and still do now. Is this normal?
This TO was my first.

Doesn't sound normal to me, especially since you did take off over a week ago. What kind of stomach pains? Did you add something to your plan that you weren't eating before.

[Candiflip]

No I didn't. I am eating all my normal things again that I was eating before.
Oh wait. The only thing different I am doing is stronger coffee, someone said that would help me go to the restroom in the morning.

Sorry I can't be of any help here, and since no one else is jumping in, I'm guessing it's because no one has had the problem. If you've had this pain for over a week, I would check with your physician. It could be so many things and you deserve a proper diagnosis. You could try to cut down on caffeine-containing foods and beverages (coffee, chocolate (are you doing the LA Lites?) to see if that helps, but that's about the only advice I have right now. Good luck.

Candice- It is a stomach pain or more of a lower gut pain? Is it constant or does it come and go? Could be several different things. I know if I eat too many starches I get a slight case of IBS or spastic colon. Wakes me up in the middle of the night with super painful cramps and I just have to wait it out. If you are having problems with BM it could be pain from that, but a visit to the Dr. probably wouldn't hurt.
