longest period of time without taking a dump?

[gururu]

I don't know why but the last time I went camping, I failed to have a movement for 4 days. And believe me I ate a lot on that trip. What gives?

 

[Kroze]

well i don't dump for like 2 weeks at a time eating all those MREs in Iraq.

 

[Bulk Beef]

About a week and a half the last time I went to Japan. Change in diet made things a little wacky.

 

[tm37]

I haven't crapped all year

 

[FleshLight]

3 days at camp

I have no idea what the longest ever for me is, but I routinely go 2 or 3 days..

I know it's really bad, heh.

 

[cronos]

4 days. also on a camping trip. this was some 15 years ago back in high school.
quite strange, because i eat as usual, and i am twice a day kind of guy!

 

[Gurck]

Maybe 2-3 days, I'm generally super-regular though.

 

[Schadenfroh]

5 days, no drugs or anything, just having a slow week

 

[Kalvin00]

Probably 5-7 days..

 

[cheezy321]

5 days eating full meals. i was at a camp and me and my friend both didnt crap the whole time. It hurt sooo bad

When I was a kid I had severe issues with constipation, if I remember correctly I might go for a week or two without defecating. I've obviously gotten better with age, but there are times where I'll go four days without a bowel movement. It's not very healthy and it has a lot of negative side-effects.

I'm forcing myself to eat Kashi every morning and to try and have a bowel movement every couple days. As I'm spending more time outside, on a regular sleep schedule and more time exercising I'm getting better at it.

4 days is pushing it.

I went like 10 and was getting seriously worried. Take the normal medication and prepare for the blow-out.

you may have to administer a supository (sp?), good luck with that route.

 

[Ime]

Ex-Lax is your friend.

 

[xcript]

I tend not to keep track.

 

[MournSanity]

I haven't taken a dump in 6 years.

 

[usold]

i think if you dont dump for a week or more, your turds will be bright green when they finally emerge...excess iron or something iirc

I've never been very regular, and it sucks because I know it's really bad for you.

It goes in cycles. It just depends on what you eat, obviously. If I'm eating a lot of oatmeal, I'll go everyday. If I'm eating a lot of nuts and seeds, it gets a little more compacted & takes longer. But since my diet isn't constant(I get tired of foods after a while), it's always changing. Sometimes I'll go twice in a day, and sometimes I won't go for 4 or 5 days.

My dad takes psyllium fiber everyday. I should start doing the same thing..

UUuugh. MREs and IMPs are bung-tastic. Not to mention they give you acne and you put on weight like hell.

 

[Viperoni]

Probably a week.

Yeah, I tend to be the same way. I'd like to think once I get in a long term committed relationship that some of the cyclical aberrations will start to go away, but it may be a chicken and the egg thing.

Indeed. Ever since I have increased my fiber intake, my bowel movements have become fairly constant. I have gone 3-4 days before though.

 

[TurtleMan]

hot damn...4 days that too long for me, twice everyday

 

[cerebusPu]

i dont keep track. i usually poop once every 1~2 days. Good healthy pebbles and sometimes the small sausage.
