How often do you poop?

Because one of my fabulous MFPals wants to know, let's compare notes.



Me? Depending on how much fiber I eat (I average between 30-50 grams/day), anywhere from twice a day to once every two days (<--- that makes me sad when it happens)

    I've never gone a day without. I never get stopped up...I tend to have the opposite problem, usually in stressful times. No stress headaches or neckaches for me...it's all in my tummy.

    Before I discovered that the vast majority of my horrendous tummy issues were caused by food allergies and eliminated them, I probably went #2 more often than #1. Sooooo glad that's not the case anymore.

    1) Potty humor is funny
    2) A friend wanted to know but didn't want to ask themselves. I asked for them.

    3 times this morning before I even had coffee. That's kinda rare though, I blame it on the meatloaf for dinner last night.

    Usually once a day.

    I pooped today -- the first time in over a week.

    My protein intake is continuously topped out at over 150 g and I am pretty good at keeping my fiber up to par,


    I used to poop regularly when I ate like a heifer. It's mind boggling, really.

    About every other day or so....If I indulge in some raisin bran, it'll be every day, sometimes twice a day. Funny enough, I eat quite a bit of fiber daily (at least I thought I did). Lol

    Pooing is private! :sad:

    Once a day. After a few sips of coffee.

    When I'm eating well 75-95% of the time, at least once a day. Occasionally two or three times a day depending on fruits/veggies.

    Now. When I'm not eating well, it's more like once every 3 days, if I'm lucky. Certainly incentive to eat well!

    Only at the most inconvenient times. Usually once a day after coffee. Sometimes every other day...twice a day.

    If I ever see any of you on the street, I'll have to wear these --> :glasses:

    Once a day, usually. I'll miss a day every now and then.

    Missing 2 days is bad news for those around me.

    Between twice a day and every few days. I've always had tummy trouble. When I was little, I never went. Then in the past few years, I go too often or (tmi) have humongous poops that clog the toilet by themselves, no paper or anything... Oops. Anyway, I started eating Activia to maybe help it out but all it's done is make me unnaturally gassy.

    As if I've jumped into this thread after a few days away from MFP! Lol!

    I've heard that if you don't go once daily, you need to eat more fibre.

    Weetabix! Lol!
