    I just wrote about this on another thread. This is VERY SERIOUS. It's how I acquired gallbladder disease.

    I am now doing green drinks - either smoothies or drinks and it works on me well. I no longer have this problem. Please look into that or suffer the health consequences of not having #2 happen.

    :noway: Women never poop! How dare you suggest such a thing. :blushing:

    Seriously, I don't know what is normal but I'm usually good for daily unless I ignore my body cause I'm out and about and I don't go in public toilets

    Lotsa fruit
    Lotsa vegies
    Lotsa water


    coffee(??) others say it works??

    I truthfully got more "regular" once I started eating healthy and losing weight.

    Sorry you and others are having this problem...........I KNOW its awful and can be painful as well as it CAN make you incredibly sick.

    PLease be careful

    I usally go 2 times a day.... Your supposed to go every time you eat a meal... Thats the bodies natural response to eating food. It wants to make room for the next meal

    seems weight loss slows it all down. I'm the same way. Started drinking prune juice 4oz seems to speed things up.

    I've heard 3x a day is a good normal. I've had times where I was doing 5 small ones a day (where I was eating really good). Now I think I average at least 3 maybe 4. Everyone is different and perhaps your healthier dieting is giving you a new normal....unless you're feeling sick, bloated or constipated in which case something needs to change. Make sure you get your water in, maybe change up your fiber a little bit.

    Not sure if this would help you but making sure you include a little oil in your diet (olive, safflower, etc.) in addition to lots of water may help. Some people swear by priobiotics. My mom's tried and true solution is Korean seaweed soup (miyuk gook). Another thing that helps me is a strong cup of hot coffee. If I have this with a bran muffin made with splenda it's like gastrointenstinal nuclear armageddon.

    Everyone is different. There is no isolated right answer to this. As long as you aren't uncomfortable, I'd say you're good.

    Tons of water, fruits, veggies, whole grains, and fiber, 1 cup of coffee each morning and I go between 1-2X per day. I may still be flushing out some of the crud I ate for 30 years though... (yes, I'm implying that when I was an infant my parents fed me crap. HA)

    I have a TON of.. um.. "wind" from my intake of fibers and stuff. I'm dealing with it.. Or, my coworkers are, rather.

    It takes 8-12 hours to fully digest food. Do you think your morning poop is from you sleep eating?

    LOL, great

    I go maybe once every 2-3 days. My BF thinks that is abnormal because he goes 2-3 time per day. I think its because he eats fast food 2-3 times a day and I generally eat pretty healthy and I feel pretty regular! Although if its been more than 3 days I will start to drink (juice, coffee, whatever) to get the bowels going again!
