mild laxative before weigh in

Is this maybe... a troll?

I also have trouble going. i use laxatives such as fiber mix to keep me clear. I think you should see your doc too. Mine suggested a little fiber water every 3 days should help. FYI: bowl can weigh as much as 5lbs for all those who don't think its a big deal.

If you have 5lbs of bowel, (A bowl if it's large and metal could easily weight 5 pounds) you need to get some major fiber. My massive logs are like 6-7 inch monsters and I didn't drop even .2 pounds.

I officially know way too much about you.:laugh:

Yeah if you were my friend you'd have to drop me as a friend, then some common friends we have, then post snarky posts about my humor and sarcasm on the board. That feels like deja vu.. hmmm.. ;-)

Well I wouldn't go that far. I was at a party this weekend and somehow we ended up having a long discussion about poop, while we were having our coffee and cookies...

peeing before a naked weigh in right after waking up is even acceptable.

I thought that was expected?!?!!!

Lol, right? That is the only way I weigh in. Otherwise it's all lies.......

I poop once a week. And I wouldn't use laxatives to poop more often nor to be lighter on a weigh in.

What? I'd probably drown in my poo-poo if I did that.

Once I started working out regularly, my movements became more regular (and frequent).

What? Working out makes ya poop? Yet another reason to not work out in the mornings. I can't be spending my days at work upstairs in "the pink bathroom".

Laxatives are supposed to be used for constipation, not to clear out your system. It can be dangerous to use them in any other setting. I would just read a package of them and the side effects and that should be enough to stop you. As said in an earlier post, poop doesn't weigh as much as you think.

If you think that there is a problem, then I would consult with your doctor. Just like with diets, theres always the disclaimer *consult with your physician before beginning any diet and exercise routine* The same thought process should be going into this. I have a friend with the same problem, she might go once a day and she may not go for 3 days, everyones body is different at the pace that it processes and absorbs food and produces waste.

Try eating some apples or drinking apple juice. Both have fiber and can help to "move things along" in a more natural way. There are also fiber suppliments if you are not eating enough fiber daily.

Theres an episode of "My Strange Addiction" about a girl who was addicted to laxitives. I would suggest watching it because it explains a lot of the harmful effects it can have when not used properly.

This is hilarious...you are my kind of friend!

Well lets friend it up.. I have a couple spots that had been vacated recently...can you say vacated in the same topic were you are talking about poop?.?

Ok - A big N O No to answer your question. On a lighter note, I can't help but laugh because this makes me think of the rumors about the enormous weight of Elvis Presley's colon when he died! Rest in peace Elvis - Thank You - Thank You Very Much!

Yes this sounds like a perfectly good idea NOT to do....eat more fiber, drink more water, have some prunes or prune juice....DON'T WEIGH YOURSELF....all those sound like more reasonable ideas.
