So you think the whole equation thing doesn't work?
You already have an HRM, fitbit and what to get the latest gadget?
You are obsessive about your numbers and really want to know how many calories you leave behind with each bathroom trip?
Get a bomb calorimeter!
You can even use it measure the calories in food!
You can get one form IKA and they even have a lease to own option: http://www.ika.com/-Lab-Eq/Calorimeters-Oxygen-Bomb-calorimeter-cph-330/
Now, in order to measure the calories you poop. Remember that you need to prepare your stool slurries correctly. Here is the improved method for fecal slurry preparation: http://www.clinchem.org/content/16/3/253.full.pdf
Or, you can consider that someone else has done the study and that, generally speaking, the calories adsorbed from food are a little off: http://suppversity.blogspot.de/2013/05/a-bomb-calorimeter-you-are-not-and.html
Seriously, look at that last link - it has some intersting info on macro absorption rates.
