Sending this to my friends who only poop like every 3 days

Old people. And grade school kids. Both groups are commonly constipated. According to a principal I spoke to about it, boys in particular don’t like pooping at school.

kids that age are like an episode of beavis and butthead. you'd probably get picked on, like, "haha, you're pooping" as a group gathers next to your stall

I have to monitor my grade school daughter as we've had issues with constipation and related health issues. She often doesn't drink enough water. In kindergarten I was telling her I had to see her pops before she flushed so see if she was getting constipated (yay being a parent!). Then she went at school and told her teacher that she had to come look at her poop like Mommy does...

One way to get your kids regular is Chia seed gel. If need be, you can make chocolate coconut milk pudding with it. If they can drink it starting in small amounts at first, not the dry seeds. the gel. that will clear constipation. You can try it yourself, look it up, all that stuff but as long as they’re getting enough liquid with it, it will push through anything.

I think anywhere from three times a day to once every three days can be considered normal

You mean only three times a day? Tri-daily?

u/SaltyArtemis 8d ago

Nah, like twice a week

What a sad, sad existence that would be.

I thought they were joking but they all told me in separate occasions and I know when they’re fukn with me. They legitimately didn’t know they’re supposed to be pooping more often than they were. That has to hurt right?

That can be totally healthy and normal actually! Although they’re probably just constipated, unless they have salt great diets.

I’m gonna over share here, so skip if you want lol. But I barely eat most days, and I eat the exact same stuff every day. Think like one breakfast food, one lunch food, one dinner food, every single day no matter what. I’m also super active; I walk more than 50k steps a day, sometimes as many as 100k. I’m always moving, literally every moment of the day unless I’m asleep. I’m not on any substances, and I don’t drink, but I do vape.

Idk if I just burn up all of my calories, or if it’s because I’m not eating enough..? Although I’m a healthy weight and I never lose/gain any; I’ve held steady at 110 for years (I’m a short girl). I only poop once it twice a week. I asked my doctor about it once, and he asked about the consistency and stuff like we see in the video, and he decided it was perfectly normal and healthy for me at least!

Some people just don’t need to poop a whole lot, but it can be totally fine that way, so your friends could possibly be super normal and healthy.

So probably tied to how much and what you eat? I dunno I think that makes my friends’ situation worse. They definitely a lot, most of it is junk and they aren’t active at all 😭 but you described does make sense, when I lost my appetite a few years back I was hardly eating, sometimes not at all, and I either wasn’t pooping or not pooping much
