Negative Poop Happens

I don't weigh myself that often. When I do, I usually do it before and after my morning throne visit. I cannot wrap my mind around what happened next. One minute I'm weighing 231lbs and then after relieving myself (mind you a hefty huffing and puffing session), I then weighed myself again and wouldn't you know it...I was .3lbs heavier. What in the freak is that?

    If you try really hard....it could be like lifting heavy. so actually you gain .3lbs of temporary poop muscle

    be sure to count those calories burned for your daily cardio and strength training.

    All kidding aside

    you likely are just leaning off the scale a little more to see the weight. My gut makes it hard to see my toes. Try it sometime....just for giggles. lean to far over the scale....it will slightly fluctuate.

    I always weigh twice, because sometimes I find that the scale sticks on my last weight (e.g. from the day before). But your case is just weird... perhaps you caused a huge splash that coated your clothes in 0.3lb of water without noticing

    Intense poops are like the strength training of the sphincter..which probably caused temporary water retention hence the weight gain. :tongue:
