How Often Does a Normal Person Poop?

"Another new series? WTF?!?"

Someone just Googled how often does the normal person poop and ended up at The Churning. I'm not sure how it happened. I just ran the same search and we didn't end up in the first ten pages of results.

That tells me they sifted through at least ten pages of shit (pardon the pun) to find us and we didn't even have the answer to their question. So, I think we should provide a service to these inquiring minds. Now I understand that none of us would qualify as a "normal" person, especially myself - but let's help this internet novice by offering our own advice.

I'll start things off in the comments section. The rest of you MUST participate. Here's the question: "How often do you shit?"

This is funniest thing I have ever read I think, I like it. I poop about 1.5 times a day. My girlfriend poops like 3-4 times a day, anyone know why she poops so much? I think I’m going to buy her toilet paper for her birthday.

I drop the Cosby kids off probably 2-3 times a day….maybe 1 more time if I eat something outrageous…or drink a lot.

I thought I was abnormal…let’s see once when i wake up, once in the afternoon, as soon as I come home from work, sometime between the last one and bed, right before bed another….so…5 times a day. More if I eat Mcdonald’s.

It’s like it goes in my mouth and right out the other end. No, seriously, I go like 6 times a day, and if I do I get cramps.

That should read as ‘if I *don’t* I get cramps. And I hope you got that it was food going into my mouth and shit going out the other hand. It seemed logical to me, but after seeing 2girls1cup…yeah. Not going there.

Matt,

Imma be ever so serious with you, your girl is perfectly fine. I think you should be catching up with her. You’re like my wife but I dont think shes ever taken a poop in her life. Been married for about two years I swear to’ya never seen her poop. But about your girl shes good man 3 to 4 is normall.

Check out the math.

If you eat 3 times a day you should poop 3 times a day thats the rule of thumb. 2 is really enough but 1 time a day I really dont think so.

It completely depends for me.. Sometimes I go every 2-4 days, or which seems normal for other females during the time of the month, I go about 3-4 times a day. I have gone as long as 2 weeks without going.. and trust me I eat a lot of fiber. It seems to run in my family (Constapation)… although my boyfriend is bang on the mark every single day. In the morning, it’s 20 minutes for him and then the fan is running in the bathroom for a few hours. He goes 2-3 times a day and has been that way for as long as I’ve known him (6 years). Lucky fart.

I usually go once every other day, which is much better than it used to be since I became vegetarian.
Before that it was like twice a week, but I never felt like anything was wrong with that.

I will have a shit about 2-3 times a day which is quite normal in my eyes. My girlfriend will only dump once a week which I find hard to believe, perhaps she has a very efficient lower colon or something and burns all the crap that we normal people can’t, it really is a mystery to me.

Around 3 times a week…thats bad bad bad isnt it? idk why…i guess im constipated and didnt even know it.

I dump about 4 times a day on average. sometimes its more dpending on what i’ve been eating and how much alcohol/drugs i have consumed. i took 3 shits last night in like a 45 minute period…it came in waves. i was running to the bathroom at one point too. my poo was storming the gates!! that’s when you know you definately did something wrong. anyway, that doesn’t usually happen…i’m sticking with 4

Well, me i usually go between 1 and 2 times a day.

My boyfreind’s colleague, Polly mentioned to him that she goes once a week!

and effectively called him weird and accused him of eating too much crap because he goes about 1 or 2 times a day?!

well i have to say that 8 times out of 10 ill shit once a week then 1 out of that ten i shit twice a month and the last 1 out of 10 i will shit 2 or 3 time in a day and also dont know if it has anything to do with it but i eat alot of uncooked meat somebody once told me that by eating uncooked meat your body cannot diegest it and i think its true because i got a big belly and the rest of my body is normal no fat anyone agree?

Right now its been 10 days since my last one, lately ive been doing kinda good Ive been going every monday but right now I gotta pull a 11 dayer

The most I ever kept it in was 15 days and noone wants to hear how massive it was, it involved using my hand to get it out.

For the past 7 or more years I poop every 13 days but now Im trying to cut it down to once every 7 days

I dont like doing this

I have not pooped in 6 days. I’m contemplating taking laxatives just to “clean out” my system. I probably have 10 pounds of poop in me. At least.

Just a question for you folks that are dropping trowel multiple times a day… are we talking rabbit pellets or what?
Milly
September 11th, 2008 - 20:52

Assman – In my case, it’s pretty big everytime. I’m not sure what a ‘healthy and normal one’ would be, but mine are usually are usually pretty long and a biggish width.

I think it really goes with what you eat. I stay away from dairy unless it’s cheese, since milk tends to make me feel bloated (I drink soy milk), and lots of fibers, lots of fruits, lots of seafood and not a lot of meat. Probably easier to digest so it goes all the way down the system faster.

I have gone 3 times today in a 3 hr period and I think I got another one coming.

Honestly, I poop 7 times a day. I’m a girl. A really normal girl too. Healthy and all, but I shit like no other. It’s obscene.

Usually I’m coiling a steamer 2x a day. But sometimes dairy can have me running to the bowl blowing mud several times.

I’ve had issues with my stomach my whole life. As soon as I got into the car as a kid my guts would start rumbling and I’ve had to blow my colon out on the side of the road more than a few times. If I’ve eaten something thats upset my gut and I’m pissing out my ass I’m in there 4-5 times usually, or at least till the poop shute’s empty. But if all’s well, I clear the mud whistle about 1-2 times a day. If I go any longer than a day without crapping I get the clay poopy where I’m wiping like 20 times till my humm holes clean….my hemmeroid hates that!

I drop the kids off in the pool 4 – 5 times daily!

October 16th, 2008 - 13:23

I’m good for one, guaranteed, per day. Get up in the morning, have the coffee, BAM! Commode choker time.
In cases of overindulgence, or particularly spicy food, it might take one or two more little ones.

Thank god i thought something was wrong with me and my bum.
I am a 3-5 a day pooper and i have increased my fibre intake.

Some of the responses have been so funny and also sop relieving…

How the hell some of you only poop once a day is a mystery….

I’m a 2x a week kinda gal. Its just like clock work too. Every Tuesday and Saturday around midnight. However, I cannot and will not go anywhere but at home or my grandma’s house. I don’t feel backed-up or weighted down at all. And actually I went two weeks without a poop while I was in Hawaii for vacation. I didn’t get the urge to go at all. But when I got home, man was that the best poo I’ve ever had.

My cousin on the other hand, now she poops about 3 times a day. Also like clockwork, 7:30am, 10:30am, and 5:30pm. I wish I was that regular.

I take the Browns to the Superbowl very rarely.
It’s not like I have trouble getting to go, they just don’t need to visit so often.

So in a week, it might be twice, maybe three times.
That would make for a daily average of .2857 or .4286, respectively.

Lexy above there, I feel you.

I’ve spent many a days without a poop — camping, etc — and my friends think I’m insane, or that I’m holding it in on purpose.

But really, there just is not that much shit in me.
Ha. Haha.

Man I can go like once a week and be fine. I find it annoying to even go, its so much work.
I can’t believe people who go so much, 2-4 times a day is OC for real.
