AMP Day 8 - Poops are Better

Reader Beware

I'm going to talk about pooping. I'll try not to be overtly disgusting, but it's an important topic for understanding your health.

Regularity

I'm usually not surprised if I don't poop in a given day. It seems to happen a lot.

Then, when I do poop, it's difficult to predict what it's going to look like. It tends to build up for a long time, then unleash. I'm familiar with the "iceberg" poop, where you see some floating, only to realize the mound underneath the surface.

Years ago, I read an article on a training website talking about what kinds of poops you should be expecting.

• At least one event every day
• At least twelve total inches every day
• Not soft, not firm, but solid consistency

I've never been totally sure how to measure that last one. I try to just use intuition. But that's a conversation for another day.

I hadn't been able to really evaluate the validity of this article I had read because I didn't really have personal experience that told me it was possible. I was just too irregular. But now, I might be seeing the light...

Summary

My update today is to say: I've been going every day for a few days, they've been about a foot long, and shaped just like a log.
