I had been constipated for several days and I just FINALLY went to the bathroom and my scale tried to tell me that afterwards I had gained half a pound.
No....

    You must have eaten a bunch of negative calorie foods.

    So you weighed yourself afterwards to see if you lost weight from the poop?

    Weigh your poop, it's the only way to be sure

    Scales are the devil. That's why they should not be the only tool used to measure your success!!!

    Don't act like you haven't done it. We all have. :ohwell:

    Really though OP, might be time for a new scale. Half a pound isn't that bad of a fluctuation, but that's how my scale started when it was malfunctioning... first half a pound here and there, and before I knew it I could step on it twice in a row and get a 5 pound difference. Threw that thing out!

    Have you been eating a lot of helium?

    Did you put your poop (and a half pound of someone else's poop) in your pocket before you got on the scale?

    Did you have a lot of TP remnants left behind?

    Does your toilet empty onto your scale when you flush?

    ...just brainstorming here...

    HAHAHAHA! I weigh myself after a poop, too. AND.. I am nearly always constipated...what with this training diet I'm on...rubbish! I love the psot-poop weigh-in. Can't figure out how you weighed more.. but TOTALLY peed my pants laughing at the earlier reply "ust have eaten negative calorie food."

    So many funny people on this site!

    LOL! I do that, too. We all have. By the way, I talked to my doctor about not being able to poo regularly. He asked me when it started, and I realized it was when I cut calories. I showed him my MFP diary, and he told me I wasn't eating enough fiber since I cut out most of my carbs. He said that I needed to add more BEANS into my diet, or add fiber supplements to my daily routine.

    TRY IT! If you aren't pooing regularly your metabolism is slower, therefore you won't lose weight as quickly.
