I don't get flu shots, but I do have times when my pouch is more and less active, usually depending on what I eat. I know they want to tell everyone 4-6x is normal, but from reading here, I think I see more of an average range from 4-10x a day. I also notice that over time my pouch function has generally improved. There are days I eat something heavy and have to go soon after, but there are also days where I eat whatever I want and go infrequently. I definitely think time is a good friend in this equation. A new pouch has low capacity. We probably sort of gravitate to eating foods that work for us. I know I prefer smaller meals lately, but I definitely don't let my pouch dictate what I eat. I have been eating so much more of what I love since having the pouch. it's fantastic.
