From what I was reading, it's basically normal to be constipated all the time. People were talking about only opening their bowels once every couple of days as though that were just the way it is. So it is distinctly possible that it's both plumbing and diet!

Yeah, definitely. My apartment has an ancient toilet (friggin landlord [insert keysmash here]) which I find to be far more easily disabled when I have recently eaten meat than when I have not.

Actually, we're missing the even bigger picture.  High school football players.....

This is very much a regional thing...mostly in the South/Southeast, at least to the level I assume you're talking about (FNL and what have you)

So not to change the subject away from poopin', but I'm curious what the data in your avatar is.

usually happens when I diet.  I always thought it was 'case I wasn't over eating anymore.
