What happens when you eat more healthy food than normal (leafy greens, lots of veggies, whole wheat bread, lots of fiber)?

wonderpance (679) -- 08.19.2009

i chose other, because i can't say i've ever noticed. but i also don't think i've had many times where i eat more "healthy" food than normal. but it really doesn't seem like what i eat has much impact on my poop one way or another in general, other than a burning bunghole after spicy food.

however, i have noticed that when i eat less fast food than normal (we've been really bad about eating fast food instead of making our own meals), my poops come out a lot cleaner and i don't have to wipe as much. the poop itself, how often i have to go, etc, seems to be about the same as usual.
_______
i love poop.

ChiefThunderbutt (3212) -- 08.19.2009

Ocsassionally I will overload on something like turnip greens, when I do this my poop is considerably longer and has a darker color (almost black) but that's about all. I overloaded on very stringy snap beans a few days ago and had a very satisfactory fiber filled poop which worked like a roto-rooter on my intestines....very enjoyable.

I voted other and it didn't record my vote eventhough it said it did record my vote. I get bad lowd big gas from eating healthy. Nothing changes the constipation foodwise. Nothing.

Britluver20021 (18) -- 08.19.2009

The other day I pretty much ate alot a biscuits and the next day, I felt sick and had diarrhea.

Postman (840) -- 08.19.2009

I chose the first option. I always eat lots of fruits and veggies and whole wheat bread. I guess a better test for me would be to start eating nothing but crap and see what happens.

MSG (1282) -- 08.19.2009

I just had this experience on a trip--lots of salads with things like endive in them, whole wheat high fiber cereal, the works. I literally pooped after every meal, sometimes solid, more often not, including a near-blowout at a restaurant. It was really good to get home where such healthy food is taken--as all such things should be--in moderation. It took my bowels a couple of days to return to what passes for normal these days.

Anonymous Coward (not verified) -- 08.20.2009

I usualy have constepation. my poops are big!

l1k3th3fr00t (not verified) -- 08.20.2009

When I first changed my diet to include more healthy foods, and less fast food, it made me poop a lot more and have gas.

Nine Inch Log (564) -- 08.20.2009

I voted other primarily because I typically eat healthy. Cheerios and fruit for breakfast, a spinach salad with almonds, feta cheese, turkey, and NO dressing for lunch, then a protein and veggies for dinner. My morning poops are fairly floral, but the rest are soft and long.

_______
Number One . . . I order you to take a number two.

Squat-n-leaveit (629) -- 08.20.2009

Being as I only eat whole wheat, plus a day without veggies is rare, and lean protein (fish especially) is the order of the day, healthy eating is the norm. Nasty eating is for road trips, as are the greasy squirts, and the noxious toots.

Pantload (92) -- 08.21.2009

After I eat a big salad, which I doo more of during the summer, my dumps come more quickly and take the form of hard, round-edged chunks in a thinly viscous liquid. Clean up is usually relatively easy, but the splashback factor is increased. It also takes more effort to blast that shit out and it leaves me wondering if there's another nugget hiding in my colon somewhere. It's all a guessing game with one's ass, I suppose...

What's so funny 'bout poop, love, and understanding?

Thunderbox (1511) -- 08.21.2009

The more veg I eat the bigger the logs are. Kind of like launching a small boat.

daphne (4610) -- 08.21.2009

Being a veggie eater makes you a serious shit machine. Soft serve, bebbeh. I chose option four.

MSG (1282) -- 08.22.2009

Raisins, blueberries, plums, fresh fruits of all kinds give me gas and loose stools if I eat them in sufficient quantity. In moderation they are fine, but I must be careful. Same with green leafy veggies (spinach, lettuce, beet greens); delicious as they are, I eat them with caution and in small quantities if I can. (By the way, beet greens can make your poop an intriguing red-green tint.)

Nine Inch Log (564) -- 08.22.2009

I know its terrible but I have to say it.
Bran, can I have your muffin?
Sorry everyone. You all know it was there and someone had to do it. I took one for the team.

prarie doggin (4058) -- 08.22.2009

Brannie, I just drained my fish tank and I have some of that colored gravel that was on the bottom. It should be easier for SP to swallow as it need not be chewed. I think I got most of the dead fish out of it. It should make for a colorful poo too.

Niner, I believe Bran's muffie is currently at the 7-11 in Jersey City. It's 99 cents with the purchase of a medium coffee.

Bran Lover (682) -- 08.22.2009

Oh absolutely PD! I'd love the colorful gravel! (Don't worry about the dead fish. A lil protein added in won't hurt anyone.)

Nine Inch, you can test out..err, enjoy the first muffin from this batch. We at Poop Report would like a report on colon travel time and other fecal results, like consistancy, color and such. Please fill out the paperwork in triplicate. Sign the waiver of liability to DTI here:

Squat Drop (not verified) -- 08.23.2009

I love a good beet poop, though the first time I had one, and I had dark purple turds and the bowl was filled with magenta liquid, I screamed in terror. My mind could not grasp it. It took me about five minutes to remember the beets. Then it was, "Co-o-o-ol!"

My bowels are so weirded out right now that even though I'm eating as healthy as possible, it seems that I get surprised with everything that comes out my ass.

Sugarplum Poopie (2) -- 08.23.2009

Having recently stumbled upon Poop Report, I've spent the last week and a half gorging on fruit and veg and swilling water like never before in a bid to improve the efficiency of my colon and, being a tad overweight, to shed a pound or twenty. Yet, to my dismay, I have had but one BM in the past week. A strained affair, resulting in the passage of a few hard, yet buoyant pebbles. I am currently contemplating the merits of this exercise and considering a brief return to my usual stodgy, greasy, glutinous fayre in order to facilitate a million wiper clear out.

Postman (840) -- 08.23.2009

Welcome, Sugarplum Poopie. Just keep doing what you're doing. You'll get there.

ChiefThunderbutt (3212) -- 08.23.2009

Good job Sugarplum Poopie......Keep up the healthy eating and it will work out in the end, or should that be, "out of the end"?

Sugarplum Poopie (2) -- 08.23.2009

Cheers for your words of encouragement. Will likely try to stick with it and look forward - though with a little trepidation -to an explosive BM soon ;)

Squat-n-leaveit (629) -- 08.23.2009

Welcome to the insanity Sugarplum! Your system might be in shock from the suddenness of the change. Everyone is different. Some do well with a "throw it in reverse" change. Others may need a graduated improvement. Instead if taking everything away, take your "normal" diet, and add more water, fiber, veggies, exercise, etc, and shave off the fats, and whatever else it is you wish to eliminate. Your weight loss will be slower, but sustainable. Walk towards you goal and succeed.

phatmanxxl (532) -- 08.23.2009

I love me a good bowl of shredded wheat.

MSG (1282) -- 08.24.2009

Hello, Sugarplum, and welcome! You don't mention nuts as part of your diet; are you eating (and chewing well) some peanuts, almonds, cashews, etc.? My experience is that they help bulk up the feces and contribute to copious bowel movements. And do keep up the water! Good luck--keep us posted!

Nine Inch Log (564) -- 08.24.2009

Thanks Branie! I am honored to taste, er test, er eat out, I mean try your lovely muffin. I have a few questions however. I noticed that you require saliva and seamen samples. Would you like those to be insured when I ship them? Frozen, in steril lab cups or can I just ship some old magazines that should have samples of both.
Also, why do I have to sign all the forms with my tongue?

Those questions aside I am looking forward to what I will call "Experiencing Bran's Muffin". Please respond ASAP so I can write a full report on the process.

We at DTI need samples of all bodily fluids before the testin...tasting of the muffin. We will need samples after the testin...(dang it!)...tasting of the muffin too. The seamen sample is for my benefit alone. I will bring him back to his ship within 48 hours.

I have sent UPS brown envelopes for each bodily fluid needed. Put each kind in each packet in which ever condition deemed easiest for you. Whatever. Sign the papers however you want. Whatever. Just sign the dang things.

Send the seaman first class on Delta ASAP!

Captain Craptastic (147) -- 08.25.2009

I am usually fairly carnivorous. When I get a more balanced intake, it has beneficial effects on poop quality, size and variety. I need to eat more fish and veggies. The vegetables, especially, make for more interesting and even entertaining poops to observe. I always enjoy the Good Morning Poop and frequently the Mid-Afternoon Poop, the After-Dinner Poop and the Good Night Poop. So, obviously, I don't need cleaning out that fiber can do for some slower-transiting persons. Things are moving through well enough without extra help.

More grains and fiber leads to HEAVY poops! You can tell the mass of the turd exiting your anus not by feel, but by speed of impact. The short (about a foot) drop from ass to water allows a moment of free fall for the poop as it begins the next segment of its strange and wonderful journey toward the sewer processing facility. Dense, heavy poops with a specific gravity approaching that of stone or iron (see FECALITH in any medical dictionary) fall fast and can even be witnessed to slide part way down the bottom hole of the toilet as if to say that they are eager to begin the voyage, where loose, low-density poops just float on the water's surface, mocking you for creating such a low quality turd.

Hey SP you ever tried adding a bit of magnesium citrate or milk of magnesia to that loooooooovely bran cereal o yours? Might help a bit.........( Just don't add too much ok?) (not liable for anything that happens to you)

Nine Inch Log (564) -- 08.26.2009

Chief, Brillo pads would be a great way to clean out your system. You should market that idea as a weight loss product.
