They call me the "POOP MAN" because I poop at least 6 to 8 times a day. I pass all kinds of foods like mushrooms, carrots, beans, lettuce, and tomatoes. Is this normal to be passing all these foods and to be going 6 to 8 times a day? I also do eat a lot of food but Im not over weight.

Dear Randy,

Thanks for the question!

I am in awe--6 to 8 times a day??? Your co-workers (assuming you work outside the bathroom) must REALLY talk about you behind your back.

Normally, I am a big fan of the type of high-fiber foods you apparently exist on. However, I think you are overdoing it just a tad.

Make the following changes:

Limit your intake of mushrooms, carrots, beans, lettuce, and tomatoes.
Chew your food better. Poo should not look like it could be re-eaten.
Stop exercising.
Drink less water.
Eat meat.
