How Often Do You Go No. 2?

For me its every other day usually. Rest assured, the poll is private.

What’s the difference between every other day and a few times a week? And, referencing another thread: Why not just ask how often one evacuates one’s bowels or takes a shit? And please condemn me for thread-shitting! : )

I go at least twice a day, but I am also taking adderall once a day to get work done and that makes me crap like I have some kinda crapping disorder

I think you misunderstand - he’s asking how often you* take* a shit, not how often you talk shit. :stuck_out_tongue:

Frequently more than once a day.

Contrary to the rumours, I am NOT full of shit :wink:

I take a shit about as often as I give a shit.

First thing in the morning, then back up again about 20 minutes later after the second coffee kicks in to clean out last nights dinner.

Get home from work about 6pm, crack a beer and go send another telegram to werribee.

When things are going well, once a day, about an hour after my morning coffee. Pretty rare to skip a day, and I don’t think I’ve ever skipped two days.

This is one thread where I’m pleased “pics or it dint happen” posts are now discouraged.

Twice daily at least.

Does that count as once or twice?

Two to three times a day for me during two weeks of the month (beginning a couple of days before menstruation) and once or twice a day the other two weeks. This is well within the realm of “normal”. Women often experience a slowing of their bowels mid-cycle, which may be hormonally related to our menstrual cycle.

Pooping varies a lot by diet and age, just so you know. Most younger people eating the average (unhealthy) diet of an American young person will move their bowels only every other day, where a young person who eats well (lots of fiber, regular meals, daily exercise) will generally move their bowels two or three times a day.

So if you want to shit better, stop eating shit.

Ostomy?

Well, that’s a new one!

About as often as something comes in, something goes out. I like to keep the trains running.

I picked more than once a day, because pretty much always once a day, and a few times a week twice a day. So probably 1.5x a day on average, something like that.

At first I thought you were asking who still uses pencils. I have a No. 2 right here my desk.

Twice a day, and I’m kind of glad to see this thread, because that changed very recently - in the last year or so. Before that it was always once a day. But now the morning coffee always sends me, and sometimes even before that.

I (rightfully) figured it was just an aspect of getting older. I eat fairly healthy as it is.

Generally about twice a day.

More if I’ve eaten at Taco Bell.

When all systems are functioning property, two to three times a day. I tend to go through phases- for a few weeks, I’ll have the most satisfying, and sizable, BMs. Really impressive, in the sense of “how the hell did that thing fit inside of me?!?!” Maybe two each day. Then for a few weeks the most I can manage with extreme effort is a few, well, marbles. Then I’ll have a couple days where I’m really gassy. Then it all starts over again.

Fascinating topic. I could talk about my shits for hours, but I’ll spare you the details.

Three times a day, almost without fail. I recognize that this is toward the high end. I take no medication, do not abuse drugs, and have no known digestive disorders, so I am at a loss to account for my high frequency.

The answer is blowing in the wind.
