    All I can say is that I never report the weight from before

    Congratulations on your 3lb poop baby! I always weigh more after I poop.

    Ditto. Don't know why or how, but happens all the time to me. (the weight gain, not the 3 pound turd)

    Yes. I always wait till after I poop to weigh myself. I do notice a weight difference. I only poop every 2-3 days. Before I started eating better, I would go everyday. After I started, I honestly thought there was something wrong since I wasn't going as much. :blushing:

    yah just once a week....not sure why, I had a colonoscopy and use fiber supplements, maybe just nerves? But I usually average once a week!
    MOAR Fiber.

    Trust me, you'll know when you're delivering a 2lb + bomb.

    That is insane! I've never heard of someone pooping once a week. Not like I talk about it with my friends or anything, but that's just crazy! Does your doctor think that's normal? I always thought normal was pooping at least once a day. Your poor colon! I do weigh myself after my morning poo, but really 3lbs? lol I'm fascinated with this conversation....

    well the first time i went 10 days without pooping and ended up in the hospital, they did x-rays and a CATSCAN and couldn't even give me and enema because I was so backed up........... so I had to drink 2 gallons of this nasty laxative and **** for hours :( ever since then I haven't pooped normally and the doctor says he has no idea what it could be, just that my colon isn't functioning correctly

    I don't know....I always make sure to weigh myself after I poop though, because I remember hearing that it can weigh about a lb or so...

    I go 4-5 times a day =\

    Don't worry, I do too, but I still see 1-3 pounds if I drop it early enough in the morning. Few things better than an effective poop in the morning,

    Why did you weigh yourself before and after pooping?
    The topic title made me guffaw before I even clicked the link in, but I'm glad I did.

    I feel bad for you. If I only pooped once a week we would have to overhaul the plumbing. Or at least build an outhouse. Talk about a stress test!
