Ok soooooo I'm a bit irregular when it comes to doing #2. I don't know if it's different for women compared to men but I MAY get in 1 a day. Is this bad and will this prevent me from losing weight as some point?

Citricel everyday. Has changed my life.:blushing:0

haha sorry, don't know the answer to your questions, but I would say I average about 3 times a day.0
-
I'm the same way. I'll either go a few times a day or just once. There are even days I haven't gone.0
-
it happens when you change your diet and eating ways. have you done any drastic changes? like when i first started eating right, i was messed up for a good two weeks.0

I'm going anywhere from 1 to 3 times a day.0

I don't have anything to offer here, because it varies...
But I am wondering if I am the only one who HAD to read this because of the title

I go less since I started dieting a little over 2 months ago. I used to go up to 3-4 times a day, now I might go once with any real...ummm, product to show for it.
I'm always hoping I'll have a nice productive trip to the restroom first thing in the morning so I can weigh in right after, lol.0 -
If you are near a TV Dr OZ has a show on right now about POOP!Ok soooooo I'm a bit irregular when it comes to doing #2. I don't know if it's different for women compared to men but I MAY get in 1 a day. Is this bad and will this prevent me from losing weight as some point?0 -
No, you're not.I don't have anything to offer here, because it varies...

What are you talking about? Girls don't poop lol.
I am actually having the same problem not even averaging once a day and It started when I changed to a healthier diet. I like Activia yogurt. There is a light version as well. Or a fiber drink, I hate the way they taste but, they help.0 -
I eat a ton of fiber, my diet is mostly fiber-based, being veg, and I still only go once a day or once every other day. I think you'll find as your stomach shrinks and you eat less, naturally you'll have to go less. I know I used to go a lot more.0

I think its a women thing. Of course not all women have this issue. But no matter how much fiber or water Im getting Im just not an everday gal. Every other is a good normal for me. But sometimes I need help. I either use a fiber additive or I drink smooth move once in a while.0
-
looks like everybody is ahead of me here. I go maybe every other day, if im lucky!0

Nope... me too. FYI: I usually go #2 once a day. Sometimes 2 or 3 if my tummy's acting up. :blushing:0 -
im not sure think u meant to go once a day but i can go a week with out going, try some colon cleanse tablets they helped me, x0
-
I can't imagine it will affect weight loss. But probiotics will keep you regular.0
-
I've read anywhere from 1 to 3 times a day is still healthy.0
-
what you go one a day and that is irregular!! I can go twice in a week. 1 a day is regular my dear!!0
-
Eat fiber. Vegetables and leafy greens usually have a lot of fiber. This helps the hate flow through you better
Yes it can stop you from losing weight because if you aren't getting rid of the waste, it's accumulating inside of you, and it weighs something.
For reference, since this is a pooh thread, last weekend I gained about 4 lbs inexplicitly. This annoyed me. I hadn't gone to the bathroom like that really in a week.
This week during a soccer match my stomach hit me like a sack of bricks... and I had to high tail it to my car and get home where I proceeded to have a truly memorable moment. Afterward, I weighed 5 lbs less. The toilet, however, was an angry porcelin god.
Last week I had a lot more grains in my diet and less fiber. As such, it accumulated in me and sabotaged my weight loss for the week.0 -
Probiotics will really help as well.0

Dr. Oz show the other day helped me tremendously. He had a whole show about poo and pee and how to know what's good, what's bad. It was gross yes, but interesting and educating at the same time.
Here's a link to a vid where he tells about foods that keep you regular. Below this vid on that page you can click a link and watch part 2.

I'm not but I hope it comes on again..0 -
I'm generally only one a day, too. But, that's better than before when it was one every 3 days....
And, I don't think it makes much of a difference, because my dad and hubs (both fairly decent sized guys - go a LOT and it hasn't affected them in any way, shape or form.... (I could be wrong. I'm not a licensed poo inspector)0 -
once a day is normal. but if you feel "clogged" ...you know the feeling lol. miralax is perfectly safe and stimulant free and has no taste. apples are a natural laxative also. drink 8 oz of apple juice.0

and lots of water!0

A recent (fantastic) thread about poop frequency, with some interesting responses: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/347785-metabolism-check-how-many-times-a-day-do-you-poop
Me? I poop like a champ -- multiple times a day. I am a loaf-pinching machine!

thanks I'll try the fiber drink because I tried Activia and I didn't really see a difference. Maybe I didn't give it enough time to run its course0 -
I am very regular, after my first cup of coffee every morning. You should be going atleast once a day. You may want to try some Miralax, it is NOT a laxative. My daughter has a bowel deformation and has to take it. The gastrointerologist says that it is safe to take everyday and your body will not become dependant on it.0
