Please don't ask why I need this.

It would be great if the food also made me sweat less.

It has to be something I can easily find.

EDITS FOR CLARIFICATION:

  • I am not planning on partaking in any illegal activities.

  • I do not condone the use of illegal substances and am not planning on smuggling anything anywhere.

  • I am not going on a hiking trip or mailing myself anywhere.

  • I will be staying in a tent (not a small one; a huge with with air conditioning and everything). I will be traveling for five days, returning to my current location on day 3 and traveling again on the last two days. I will not poop on the first three days (hopefully).

  • Clean toilets with all the expected facilities will be available to me. I am not going to poop for reasons that I wish to keep to myself.

  • If it gets bad, like really bad, like a-piece-of-poop-is-literally-halfway-out-my-ass bad, I will use the toilets.

Please stop asking because I am not telling anyone the reason.

I just want to be a part of this history. Also maybe like protein shakes?

I have a friend who was in the army and said they had to do 100+km training hikes. No one wanted to have to stop to poo so the first thing they did, before even starting, was to eat the block of cheese from their ration packs. They called it plug cheese.

Just don't eat anything. For three days you should be fine. If your stomach hurts just drink water.

This post is truly glorious, this should be the founding exhibit of the museum of Lemmy.

I am truly grateful to witness this moment.

In case OP is still with us, my advice would be anti diarrhoea medication, consume minimum liquids, avoid fibre, pack MREs which are often formulated to be a bit constipating. But above all, question why on earth you would be doing this in the first place!

Bro are you mailing yourself somewhere?

Eat a full MRE the day before. Good luck ever pooping again.

This is the most upvotes I have seen on Lemmy so far! We gotta get this over 1k at least!

[–] RomanRoy@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago

I wonder how he will behave as soon as the first thing the date does in the tent is, unceremoniously, going for a poop.

[–] Jackolantern@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago (2 children)

This is one of those threads that’s going go be legendary is it? Like the eating their own foot on early Reddit

what the fuck. i need an update post

[–] skrttskrtt911@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago

This post is gold. To parrot a couple others, anti-diarrhea medicine always locks me up for a day or two

[–] MiddleWeigh@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

If you don't wanna partake in illegals ie opioids, you can give immodium a shot. It's anti diarrhea stuff. Just take more than it says lol it will def stop you up. I would also just eat bare minimum. Trail mix or smth. Also drink less water.

[–] ja2@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

I used to take immodium for multi-day concerts where I expected to be drinking a lot of beer. Last time I did so, it worked so well that I didn't shit for two weeks and stopped being able to sleep. Had to get to the doctor for a powerful laxative cocktail that really messed up my guts for another two weeks during which I still could barely sleep for different reasons. I'm not getting that month back.

Dude, I know you can't say why, but I sincerely hope you come back after your...excursion? And update us all with the results. And may e tell us why when you have the chance.

Just coming in here and saying you can't shit for 3 days. What on earth is this.

Are you planning to film one of those "shipping myself in a box" videos? 😭

[–] Pulptastic@midwest.social 10 points 1 year ago

The best thing you can eat is nothing. Take a 3 day water only fast. Maybe 4 days, start before your trip to get out all the poop ahead of time.

[–] KeefChief12@lemmy.ml 10 points 1 year ago

Just tell us the reason.

[–] potato_pizzareca@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

The type of shit (or lack thereof) that I came here to subscribe.

[–] Wirrvogel@feddit.de 10 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I was here witnessing lemmy history being made and I will probably die of curiosity if we do not get an update. I do not have any tips. I just hope that you come back safe and sound.

[–] lewosadebu@sh.itjust.works 10 points 1 year ago (7 children)

Not sure if this is a troll post...

But in case not, in my experience black chocolate and banana helps in these kind of situations...

And don't drink apple or grape juice, or the opposite will happen πŸ™ƒ

You could try surviving on Soylent or an equivalent. It's the nutrients you need to stay alive and operating normally stripped down to the bare minimum (so less material for you to have to poop). It might be diluted in water but that could be minimised and that small amount would probably leave you though sweat/breath anyway.

Honestly, the edits didn’t clarify much. I’m nearly as confused by this whole situation as I was the first time I read the post
