Bowel Movements Make You Lose Weight?

**Surfgod** · 08-12-2005, 10:44 PM

First of all I'm not sure if this is the right topic but since it has to do with how much I eat I figure it is. I started eating more from 7 meals to 8 now including one baked potato along with my before bed shake and I find now every day I need to be taking a crapper.

As a hardgainer whose trying to put weight on should I be trying to hold it in or not worry about it due to bowel movements meaning nothing to your weight? Sorry for the bad question but I had to ask otherwise I could go for months wasting time training without knowing.

**str8flexed** · 08-12-2005, 10:47 PM

congratulations. You get most ridiculous post of the day

yes you should hold it in and constipate yourself. There is a reason that it is trying to get out bro. Reread your question, do you honestly believe you'll get more nutrients out of **** that is trapped in your bowel?

EDIT: haha okok. but you do give surfers a bad name.

IMO you need to hold it in. If you get unbearable cramps after a day or two just keep holding it, they'll go away and soon you'll be on your way.

Actually, Ive heard of this rare and obscure technique before, as it originated in deepest darkest Tibet, and was actually documented in National Geographic. The Tibetans would recycle all their body wastes, drinking urine over and over again (originally staring with a simple gallan of yak milk as children). Holding in their bowels made them stronger spiritually, as they felt closer to donga mingalow (the god of the bowel movement). Eventually, holding in the bowel creates a physical recourse where it is distributed into the body and becomes rock hard muscle. I applaud you for trying such a mystical feat.

This is what ronnie coleman does, thats why his stomach is slightly distended.

Yo most ridiculous post of the day? Wow what do I win? OK serious I did take it as serious but the reason I stopped drinking coffee is I would have liek two big crap sessions in one day. So are you saying I can drink coffee again?

And to those who think its ridiculous lets use this as an analogy, if a car's engine burns gas ten times faster than a normal car, does that mean it doesnt matter cause it wont make a difference?

**BPP** · 08-13-2005, 01:43 AM

this thread brought down this board just a little bit

**NukeDukem** · 08-13-2005, 01:46 AM

I think once the waste has reached the point of escape, the only way you are going to get any more nutrients out of it would be to eat it again. Do you want to do that? Just ask yourself these things before you post

Having indigestion all the time would be unhealthy and you would likely not be getting as much out of the things you consume. However, holding it in is not the solution. Eating right and getting plenty of fiber so you are regular and never have indigestion is the key.

WTF?! Dude what's wrong with you. I have two big crap sessions BEFORE 9AM.

**littlechris** · 08-13-2005, 02:36 AM

Sometimes, before competitions/photo shoots when I need to get that extra bit of leanness, I take a vacuum cleaner with a hose extension, loosen myself up real good with a glob of hand lotion, and suck out what I'm packin' in my back end. It was a secret this huge old-timer showed only me when I was real young and just getting into the gym scene.

**Surfgod** · 08-13-2005, 02:38 AM

LOL to you all. All I needed to know was to take fiber and that no matter how many crappers I have it wont affect me losing weight. I'm sorry if this makes no sense but how many active topics have been answered one hundred times already? Consider yourself lucky to be involved with such a legendary occasion with the first new topic in at least a year.

What the **** dude. Why are you so afraid to ****? Why do you think it's bad?

I be trying to hold it in or not worry about it due to bowel movements meaning nothing to your weight

Yeah, because that extra 10lbs of **** is what's going to help you win in some bodybuilding contest. Next time weigh yourself before and after you ****, you'll lose like 2lbs. Don't want that. And coffee is evil.

Im not sure about this.
Well food is what makes your muscles grow.
If need to take irregular bowl movements (like after every meal), youre not letting anything stay in your system for very long, so wouldnt that effect your muscle growth rate?

Ne comments?

If you hold it in you wont be able to eat as much so that will actually make you lose weight. 1 or 2 nice healthy dumps a day is good for you.

Because in your scenario NO ONE would be fat, they would just eat too much food then "dump" it out...When you eat your body utilizes the Macro and Micro Nutritients (even if there is a surplus), then "dumps" the waste product..... Don't worry if you eat too many burgers, they aren't going to come out your a** whole...

How did you get 'no one' would be fat from my scenario?
The normal bowl movement range is 2-3 - regardless of how many meals you having. But,
For someone who is bulking and having 6-7 meals a day, and for some reason needs to empty his bowels after every meal and is just gonna get rid of everything he just ate, you dont see that has having any negative effect?

Do you realise how long the intestines are ?? It takes time for the food you just ate to pass through them and the nutrients are absorbed from it as it passes through. Obviously the food passing through needs room so some has to come out, but it's food from a few meals ago that has slowly passed through the intestines..

http://www.saburchill.com/chapters/chap0016.html

The food stays in the stomach for about two and a half hours

Food can stay in the large intestine for a long time, up to 96 hours!

sometimes when i eat something, and i take a movement like 5-10 minutes later, i can see what I just ate is what has come out - its pretty evident in some cases
(its not like i study it or anything)
