I starred WW Tuesday and I am having a lot diarrhea

is that normal? I thought maybe I have the stomach flu, but I do not feel sick besides this so I am just wondering if it has to do with changing my diet?

It may well be. It's hard to say. A lot would depend on how drastic your diet has changed. If you've added a lot more fruits and vegetables, fiber, water etc it's not a totally unusual thing. Usually most people have gas issues more than anything. I would give it a few more days and if it hasn't cleared up, I'd call your doctor.

Could be. Alot of people complain of gas too.

This is my second go at WW...yes the first time worked and I screwed it up so im at it again! Each time I have had this problem, do not be alarmed!

Thanks for the replies! I have IBS but I never have a problem unless I eat something really fatty or I am close to my period. So I was starting to think that I had a stomach bug. I do not feel sick besides the main problem, so I am glad to see that I am not the only one that has the problem.
