    Every other day to every two days. I've been that way since I was a kid, like clockwork. That's just how I roll.

    Every morning. Unless I run late. God, I hate pooping at work. :(
    I love pooping at work. I try to time it that way so I don't have to buy as much tp lol

    Lol, you are totally my hero now.

    I poop once every few days....I wish it was more often. Oh! And I also have weighed myself before and after. Sometimes I'm pretty impressed with my bum....

    Normally, once every 2-3 days. Sometimes once every 1-2 days, other times twice a day. Randomly for the win.

    AT LEAST once a day, usually MORE. I've NEVER had issues with that.

    my question is...how the heck do you get 30-50 grams of fiber a day?!?!?!

    :laugh:

    I go everyday, usually 2 to 3 times. I chalk it up to fiber, plenty of fruits & veggies, and plenty of H20!!

    I poop at least once a day.

    Though I'd say, on average, two or three times a day. Which everyone says makes me weird. But it makes me glad to know I'm not stopped up.

    When I'm at home I am vegetarian and normally go between one and three times a day. However...when I am deployed the food choice gets slim and I am forced to eat their horrible food. When I was deployed throughout most of last year I was in the ER twice because I hadn't pooped in ten days...

    Before I started eating healthy, once every 4-5 days. I used to HAVE to take laxatives in order to "go". Sad, right? Now...I go every day. A small triumph that counts big ;P

    I'm currently at 61 grams of fiber and still have about 700 calories left for today. My food diary is wide open if you want to look. Be nice re the sodium!

    I've never gone a day without. I never get stopped up...I tend to have the opposite problem, usually in stressful times. No stress headaches or neckaches for me...it's all in my tummy.
    Before I discovered that the vast majority of my horrendous tummy issues were caused by food allergies and eliminated them, I probably went #2 more often than #1. Sooooo glad that's not the case anymore.
    @cory What is with your poop fascination?
    1) Potty humor is funny
    2) A friend wanted to know but didn't want to ask themselves. I asked for them.



    So your friend is safe and everyone thinks you are strange. :(
    I *am* strange, and I have no problem with that.
    Potty humor is funny.
    I can also burp the alphabet.
    My 9 year old son thinks I'm the coolest mom alive.

    Yep you are kinda strange, but that's okay - I wouldn't have near as much fun reading your posts if you weren't. :wink: Also, this thread is hilarious. :laugh:

    BTW, I'm in the - my body is using every single calorie I consume category, so I rarely poop these days. :cry: AND, I've been known to weigh before and after - well, it wasn't really known before, but I guess it is now. :bigsmile: :blushing:

    HAAA I'm so glad I came back to read through this...

    I feel bad for anyone who doesn't poop for a couple days...

    Me? Daily and like a few others said, like clockwork.

    It used to be every single day at exactly 11am, now, it has been three days. Senna tonight, and a cigarette in the morning if that doesn't work. :-(

    I pooped today -- the first time in over a week.

    My protein intake is continuously topped out at over 150 g and I am pretty good at keeping my fiber up to par,


    I used to poop regularly when I ate like a heifer. It's mind boggling, really.

    I have the same issue. I go way less now than I did when I ate unhealthy.

    Sweet my favorite subject. My bathroom is my thrown as I spend a lot of time there. Everyday I go about 3-4 times. Sometimes more. What I have found amazing about my body since I have been eating healthy is that if I eat something bad or that my body does not like ie Mcdonalds....my body will flush it within 15-20 mins. NO JOKE!!

    My body is my Temple and only wants nutrients!!
