How Much Can Poop Weigh?

Mean really? Stupid scale. I need to stop weighing every day. It's just making me crazy.

LOL! I have actually weighed myself pre and post defecation before. You would be shocked at the weight difference....LOL

Take a dump in a container, then weigh it. there is your accurate answer..

I have weighed myself before and after on several occasions, imagine the look on my face when I weighed a pound more. If I let it the scale would seem to be the judge, the jury and the executioner to my self-esteem.

I've been constipated, won't way till I go.

I LOVE THIS! Made me laugh! It's comforting to know I'm not the only one who's done this! Because we do dialysis at home for my husband, he has to weigh himself before and after treatment, and the weight after the waste is removed from his blood is called his "dry weight".. So I consider my post BM weight my dry weight. LMAO!

I've done this, and come down a pound. Lol

Dry weight. Perfect. I love this forum. I post a bizarre thought and instead of people thinking I am nuts you relate.

My 16 year old brother always likes to weigh before he poops for some reason lol and usually he ends up weighing about 3 pounds lighter or so.

Now - that's desperate!

Poop is not created equal. "Healthy" poop will float. High Fiber poop will be the heaviest, because it can hold the most Water.

Unfortunately your question is pretty much impossible to answer (by me anyway). Too many variables. And it would also require a volume to be taken, and I'm so not going there.

A good poop, and all it involves, might relieve you of 0.5 - 1.25 lbs on average. This doesn't answer how much poop weighs (because if you poop a plum vs. a loaf of bread - totally disparity).

All I know is I make sure I've peed, pooped and am wearing my birthday suit when my feet hit that scale. :-)

I have always wondered this too. I tried once after a really good blowout and lost 3+ lbs. But usually a pound plus some.

Drink coffee first....
