    Another thought...

    One time I was all clogged up and googled natural remedies. The best one I found was a few dates and a glass of milk at night. The next morning I was good to go. Try it, it might work for you too.

    Thanks for the mini giggles with this...

    I am on a morning first thing schedule...it just slowly worked out that way. Fiber helps, the night before, but other than that my body just said this is it's time.

    Otherwise, I agree with the other folk who say who cares if you go #2 or not. It's not that big of a deal...you should be looking at the downward trend, not the exact number...there are a lot of things that go into weight, like water. Are you going to dehydrate yourself next? The point is to lose fat, not just "weight" in general. The mass of feces in your colon isn't why you are here, it's presumably the excess body fat.

    hot water will also get them moving. it's not always the actual coffee, it's normally just the effect of hot water. also stretching. that'll get you movin!

    Am I the only one who finds it vaguely disturbing that people are suggesting a stool softener? Surely if you're eating enough fibre and good fats you shouldn't need some sort of medication to have a poo?

    Do agree with black coffee though - I don't drink it for that purpose (I just luuuuurve it) but it certainly hastens things along sometimes....

    I do all this already and still have trouble going, but then this is coming from someone who used to go everyday at least 2 times a day, when I was eating bad. Maybe I am asking for too much lol I am trying everything natural at the moment, more fiber, more water, good fats, probiotics, hopefully something helps!

    For an evening snack,have some prunes. You will have a bowel movement first thing in the morning.

    I have to ask, why is this a goal? What do you hope to gain from it?

    As a suggestion though, if you'd like to figure out how much your poo weighs, you could always weigh yourself before you poo and then again after it and subtract that amount from your morning weight.
