    I poop about once per hour, or about 24 times per day.

    Oh wow, you might want to get that checked out buddy. Lol. Anyway, it would be preferred if you go once everyday, but you should really start doing something about it if you don't have a bowel movement for three consecutive days. No straining when doing so and it has to be semi to fully solid, light to dark brown in color :)

    Heh, nursing knowledge helps :)

    the more you poop the more regular your system is... the best way to see how efficient your body is: is to have corn see how long it takes for you to notice it in your stool...

    also you shouldnt have time to read a book or anything on the toilet you should just sit down boom boom bang and be done...

    Every two days usually.

    edit: How are you guys pooping so often?

    Data point for consideration, for me a very low fiber day is 30 grams. Normal range for me is 41 to 56 grams per day. If you try this don't do it all of a sudden. Go slow, ramp up gradually. :wink:

    I poop about once per hour, or about 24 times per day.

    I'm about twice that, so 48 times a day, which really messes up my sleep patterns. But better I mess up my sleep patterns than mess up my sheets (and marriage)

    Or, in complete honesty, 1-2 times a day, which is less than when I ate less healthy and exercised, then it was 2-3 times a day.

    While dieting on my 900 calorie a day diet, I only have to poop about every other day. Then I always lose weight the next day on the scale.

    Why only 900 calories?

    Lets stay on track here... not everyone eats to lose. Leave them alone. damn... you mention less than 1200 and they come after you like you said bath salts!

    Funny post or funniest post ever....funniest post ever.

    2-4 times a day. If i am feeling a little backed up, more water and magnesium citrate. One pill will keep you semi regular, two will make you afraid to sneeze.

    wait how often do you use that stuff????? i mean i drink one about every 3 months or so but it seems like you are using the stuff almost weekly.

    if you need that much help taking a dump you need to have your kidneys and stuff checked.

    Mine is completely tied to how much water I drink and fiber I eat. If I am eating healthy and drinking enough water it is once a day or every other day. If I have a binge day or eat junk food and drink soda instead of water then it is about three times a day.

    And then there is that lovely time of the month (if you know what I mean) where I can get backed up for about three days.

    Interesting...I get gassy and poop more at that time.

    I thought this was going to be about exercise induced pooping...that's the worst.

    wonder why??

    Normal is more than once a day. I go 2-3 times in 24 hours. If you are going less than once a day, you are constipated.

    2-3x a day - probably fiber has something to do with it -- I try to get a lot of fiber as it was recommended, but I have always been that way... rare for me not to go in a given day.

    If you start having more fiber I bet the frequency increases.
