Okay, I have no one else to ask about this. Um, I feel like I am full of shinola. Is 3 times a day too much to do number 2? How much is too much? I've cut out refine sugars, red meat, white bread. I'm eating all the right things and drinking plenty of water... it is just the way things are going to be? Am I okay?

    Unless you're feeling sick in other ways...there is no 'normal'...... if you're not eating crap (no pun intended...:laugh: :blushing: :bigsmile: ) you body is probably just needing to excrete.... some do it more often than others... SongBSweet....has some great posts on just this topic, perhaps even just PM her if she doesn't see this...she'll put your mind at ease...

    But....this is only if nothing else seems to be strange ...ya know you feel ok in other ways...etc.

    Relax....:drinker: PM her if you'd feel better...or GOOGLE....I do that alot if I wonder about things....trust me, this topic will surely be there...everything else is:laugh: :flowerforyou:

    egh..
    depends on where you're going...and who you're going with:laugh:

    don't mind me I worked out a bit ago and am now in a super wacky energetic mood!:bigsmile:

    Nah...once a day is fine as well...everyone is gonna b so very different.... if you don't go once a day...still nothing wrong with you unless you feel ill in other ways......then you might go check it out with your doc and see why you don't feel well beyond that....:drinker:

    ohhh but wait....is it weird that I've never paid much attention on counting how many times I go or how often?:laugh: I just go if I feel the urge.... uh oh, maybe I should start counting too? We could have a whole thread on this....

    ohhhhhhh:blushing: wait! we already do:bigsmile: :noway: :laugh: :wink: :drinker:

    I second the thought "I dont think about how often I go", my husband goes 3 or 4 times a day and he is very healthy, so my thinking is each to his/her own UNLESS you feel dis-ease ( the Reiki meaning for feeling uneasy, the first signs of your body going out of skelter).

    And I wish I had your problem. All the fiber in the world makes me so gassy I feel like I could float away, but still only 2-3 times a week.

    I wasn't really paying attention until hubby mentioned it yesterday. I have to take some kind of a test this week, my mom is a colon cancer survivor and every year, she insists I have to poo on a popsicle stick and send it off to a lab to get tested. Guess I won't have any trouble getting a sample this year eh? Oh well could be worse...here in a couple of years I'll probably have to start getting the ole buttcam. :laugh:
  • Lol, yeah, 3 times a day is actually best; think about it, three meals a day SHOULD mean three...you know. It just means your digestive system is working at its peak. The fibre definitely helps with that. :tongue:
