As a nurse, I can say this is always the answer, vegetables & fruit. The American diet is horrible for the GI system. When I went vegan some years ago I started having three a day, takes less than a minute apiece

[–] [email protected] 12 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Over here with my preferred snack of apple and peanut butter. Guess an apple a day DOES keep the doctor away huh?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

You but 4 a day for a week will lock you right up.

Too much fiber.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 8 months ago

Also if you're a protein bar fan and don't have much fiber quest bars have 13g a bar.

I started just mixing some psyllium husk into my usual water consumption, but that's partially to support my intermittent fasting schedule.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago

You’re two thirds through the Lemmy 3 Days No Poop Challenge.

Hang in there!

[–] [email protected] 5 points 8 months ago

Exactly my thought when i saw this post

[–] [email protected] 24 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Depends, are you trying to poop, or doing the 3 day challenge?

Probably more effective than any of the suggestions so far:

Make sure you are well hydrated and do some exercise or at the very least a long or high-energy walk.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 8 months ago

I recommend pooping asap.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 8 months ago (2 children)

You can hold it in for up to 2 weeks, speaking from experience here.

You'll be fine

[–] [email protected] 4 points 8 months ago

Thank you for believing in me

For the love of God eat fiber and drink water. How hard is this?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 8 months ago (2 children)

Well, I haven't pooped since last year, I bet that stuff is pretty damn hard by now if you really must know. 😅

I do drink a lot water and eat a lot of nuts and bananas, and apples and eggplants...

Drink some coffee

Some people have slower digestive systems than others

It's not uncommon for me to go several days without a BM, no matter how healthily or unhealthily I've been eating

This might only be me, but when I'm constipated, my go to is hydration and lettuce.

I'll get myself a nice big salad, and eat it super fast. The idea is that if you eat it fast, you won't chew as much. The partially unchewed lettuce can help irritate your guts into doing a bit of a clean cycle. (Plus, veggies are already great for constipation.)

Best of luck, and wishing a healthy one for you soon haha.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 8 months ago

You're just charging your ultimate attack.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) (1 children)

Try chewing gum, a few pieces a day.

[–] [email protected] 28 points 8 months ago (1 children)

BE VERY CAREFUL DOING THIS!!!! you may accidentally chew too much gum, and blow a bubble so big that you float away into the sky.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 8 months ago

You could also swallow it by mistake and it gets stuck for years.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 8 months ago

Don't Poop January

[–] [email protected] 6 points 8 months ago

Whatever mizu did, do the opposite.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 8 months ago

Metamucil, salad, veggies. No meat or cheese. You’ll be good by tomorrow.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 8 months ago

Vege smoothie

[–] [email protected] 5 points 8 months ago

The seed shells from Cassia Angustifolia

Make a cup of tea from them, wait 12 to 24 hours.

Enjoy. Just don't drink it everyday for weeks.

You can find it in herbal stores i am sure.

It is prescribed by doctors at least in some European contries

[–] [email protected] 4 points 8 months ago

i literally yelled "Hey Sharon! You gotta see this" today in the washroom.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 8 months ago

3 times a day to every 3 days is normal.

When was the last time you pooped?

Get the flu. It'll clean you right out. The vaccine wasn't very effective this year. Ask me how I know.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

So far so good on vaccines this year for me.

Two words: magnesium citrate.

Two other words: Eat vegetables.

Bear down!

Also love the username, fellow Role Models fan?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

1.) Sit on a toilet

2.) Concentrate

3.) Become Forspoken protagonist https://youtu.be/1zo3jPUPbeI?si=xP_ADMTsdJlkt78e

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago

Fibers or a french breakfast : coffee + cigarette = poo (or in French CCC: clope, cafee, caca). Or if you realy need to, those gels you can put in your bum if you're into that

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago

Second day of the holidays > can't stop pooping

Man this period isn't good for your health...

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

That soccer team that crashed in the Andes dug it out with a stick or bone.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago

Yeah: don't spend 18 hours drinking and taking cocaine.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago

I'm having the same issue. I thought I had food poisoning because I have chills, stomach cramps, and constipation. But the only culprit would be the three cups of raw broccoli I had on NYE.
