Or start, in this case.
Good point
Fiber, lots of.
As a nurse, I can say this is always the answer, vegetables & fruit. The American diet is horrible for the GI system. When I went vegan some years ago I started having three a day, takes less than a minute apiece
Over here with my preferred snack of apple and peanut butter. Guess an apple a day DOES keep the doctor away huh?

Also if you're a protein bar fan and don't have much fiber quest bars have 13g a bar.
I started just mixing some psyllium husk into my usual water consumption, but that's partially to support my intermittent fasting schedule.
The Lemmy cycle:

- shitposts
- beef memes
- memes about never pooping
- back to start
You’re two thirds through the Lemmy 3 Days No Poop Challenge.
Hang in there!
Exactly my thought when i saw this post
Probably more effective than any of the suggestions so far:
Make sure you are well hydrated and do some exercise or at the very least a long or high-energy walk.
For the love of God eat fiber and drink water. How hard is this?
Some people have slower digestive systems than others
It's not uncommon for me to go several days without a BM, no matter how healthily or unhealthily I've been eating

Well, I haven't pooped since last year, I bet that stuff is pretty damn hard by now if you really must know. 😅

I do drink a lot water and eat a lot of nuts and bananas, and apples and eggplants...
Drink some coffee
You can hold it in for up to 2 weeks, speaking from experience here.
You'll be fine

I recommend pooping asap.
Why are you still holding on to last year's shit?
Fiber and water. Find yourself a nice, vegetable soup recipe.
This might only be me, but when I'm constipated, my go to is hydration and lettuce.
I'll get myself a nice big salad, and eat it super fast. The idea is that if you eat it fast, you won't chew as much. The partially unchewed lettuce can help irritate your guts into doing a bit of a clean cycle. (Plus, veggies are already great for constipation.)
Best of luck, and wishing a healthy one for you soon haha.
That's a good tip. My personal choice is celery. Celery has higher water content, and more insoluble fibre than lettuce. And you can eat it pretty quickly too.
You're just charging your ultimate attack.
Try chewing gum, a few pieces a day.
BE VERY CAREFUL DOING THIS!!!! you may accidentally chew too much gum, and blow a bubble so big that you float away into the sky.
You could also swallow it by mistake and it gets stuck for years.

Don't Poop January
Vege smoothie
OP this post is a few hours old now if still nothing, you could try a single dose of milk of magnesia to get things going but continue a high fiber diet the next few days to get everything back on track.
This reminds me. Apparently, in a pinch, you can also dissolve a few teaspoons of epsom salt (magnesium sulfate) in water and drink that. Would have never guessed that stuff is even safe to consume if I hadn't read "saline laxative for relief of occasional constipation" on the front of the bag I just bought.
Metamucil, salad, veggies. No meat or cheese. You’ll be good by tomorrow.
Whatever mizu did, do the opposite.
5 mile run always does it for me.
The seed shells from Cassia Angustifolia
Make a cup of tea from them, wait 12 to 24 hours.
Enjoy. Just don't drink it everyday for weeks.
You can find it in herbal stores i am sure.
It is prescribed by doctors at least in some European contries
Push
Two words: magnesium citrate.
Two other words: Eat vegetables.
Get the flu. It'll clean you right out. The vaccine wasn't very effective this year. Ask me how I know.

3 times a day to every 3 days is normal.
When was the last time you pooped?
Fibers or a french breakfast : coffee + cigarette = poo (or in French CCC: clope, cafee, caca). Or if you realy need to, those gels you can put in your bum if you're into that
Do as I do and get Legionaire's disease on the 30th of December. Bonus points if that's your birthday like it is mine.
