    Dang, Freud was born 150 years too early. Just think of the psych theorys he could have drawn from this group and our fascination with poop and pooping!! LOL

    Average 8-9 times a week, once a day + a bonus here or there. Strange shapes due to surgery years ago.
    No need for a squatty potty now, but as I get older and my arthritis gets worse, considering a "right height" potty.
    May need a squatty potty to go with it.

    Once to twice a day usually. Always early in the morning. Then the other time is all over the place- (As far as time is concerned)I am pretty good about using the toilet. ;)

    I just poop when I need to poop. It doesn’t need to be analyzed. Like, do you think about how many times you breathe? It’s just weird. Just poop when you need to poop. Bears don’t worry about it. They just go when they need to go.

    You of all people should know how important pooping is to some people! :lol:@JerSchmare

    I have IBS-D so it depends on the day but it's usually a party 2-6 times in the morning and throughput the day if I have a flareup

    I poo about every 90 minutes while awake, and have to wake up once at night to go again so I never get a full nights sleep. So far my docs haven’t found anything abnormal so I guess it’s “normal”!

    ?? how do you get things done and go places? lol

    Best part about this thread is that it's in the Food and Nutrition section :D:D

    Well I think the foods you eat make all the difference, so it's kinda in the right thread :lol:

    They should make a new sub forum that is nothing like chit chat/fun and games, but can be used for topics like this that aren't really general diet and weight loss or food related. I've had a few questions in the past that didnt really fit in to either category, so i just plonked them in wherever.

    Ah I'm still jealous. You people and your chia seeds. I just drank castor oil and I still can't go :( Doubt a stupid seed will do anything.

    This thread may have jinxed me. I usually get three square poops a day but have only pooped twice in the last FOUR DAYS.
    To some, that's perfectly normal. To me, the world Is ending, the apocalypse is nigh, and there is nothing else that I can think about.

    LOL I'd be in panic mode too! Hopefully your innards sort themselves out soon xx

    From what I've read, you apparently need the power of Chia seeds.
    This thread is an experience :D

    I'm not sure whether this is 'insightful' or 'inspiring'. I think maybe a 'horrifying' button is required.

    I'm almost tempted to see if they sell poo knives on Amazon, but I'm scared of what will show up, "People who searched for 'poo knives' also searched for "insert horrifying item you never knew existed here".

    Supposedly some people create such mammoth deposits that they will not fit down the drain when flushed. So they need to be dissected into flushable pieces. :dizzy:

    I have witnessed this in person (not the dissecting part, though).
    My senior year in high school, I had stayed late one day to take care of something for a teacher and on my way out, a buddy who had also stayed late grabs me and pulls me into the boys room to show me what he'd discovered...a HUGE log, a solid 3 inches in diameter, reaching full depth into the bowl and sticking out of the water by a good 2 to 3 inches.
    Too bad this was the same year YouTube was born and the camera phone/picture sharing craze hadn't yet begun...

    Yeah when it literally coils up and out of the water- sometimes- you really just want to document the food baby you birthed.

    And that is correct- sometimes- it will not flush. Usually I just use the plunger- but I've had to do the plastic bag/glove method before when something won't plunge. woof.

    Pooping is a real thing. I need that toilet that sucks down like 29 golf balls or something.
