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.

Tbf, there's a difference between knowing instinctively that someone poops and being first-hand witness to the godawful stench of post-chipotle bowel movement in an area with poor air circulation (AC aside).

Crush is definitely involved though.

I've heard that Robert Zemeckis is interested in your story. He mentioned something about filming "Pooped Away"...

I think water fasting would do you the best. There was this guy in 1965 who fasted for over a year eating nothing but some vitamins prescribed by the doctors and drinking water coffe and tea https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angus_Barbieri%27s_fast

He apparently also only pooped every 2 months https://www.diabetes.co.uk/blog/2018/02/story-angus-barbieri-went-382-days-without-eating/

The important first step is preparation. You need to clean the pipes. There should be nothing left inside you before you commence on the trip. So take some laxatives and do some cleaning. After you’re thoroughly pristine you must only consume a clear liquid diet, so clear juices and soft drinks (make sure you consume the full sugar version because that’s how you’ll get your energy). Take a multivitamin each day. On the second or third day take an Imodium, this is likely overkill but you won’t poop. Return to a normal diet on the third day but do so gradually over the course of a day or two. I cannot guarantee that this method will not damage your health and the risk will likely be greater if you have other health conditions, but you wont poop sooo.

I wonder if doing a colon cleanse beforehand help? Similar to what people do before a colonoscopy.

Also, it is an odd request but I’m now fully vested in your post to see what others suggest.

Just wanted to say I was here for this.

Define "illegal". Like, marijuana is legal for recreational use in my state. I'm looking forward to some edibles when I get home, hahah

If it's important you can easily just not eat for three days. Otherwise, there's nothing you can eat that will be safe and prevent you from pooping.

[–] techtask@kbin.social 6 points 2 years ago (4 children)

MREs. Particularly US MREs. You can eat em as much as you want and you won't have to go for a week.

Fear the end of the week, however

Im just posting so I can see my username on one of Whang's videos one day.

[–] Sowatee@lemmy.ml 6 points 2 years ago

What the fuck?

[–] Nerrad@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

Good luck mailing yourself out of the country.

[–] Hyggyldy@kbin.social 6 points 2 years ago

Such an oddly terrifying post.

If you make it to wherever you're going, please let us know the story!

hahah ok this is good content

[–] pythonoob@programming.dev 5 points 2 years ago

Just use the MRE's you've no doubt been issued for beast week and stop complaining. Also hide your phone trainee, the MTI's are coming.

[–] bloubz@lemmygrad.ml 5 points 2 years ago

Well... just don't eat. You don't need to eat for 3 days to survive during that time

Hard boiled eggs. Astronauts love them because they are almost completely absorbed and pooping in space is a hassle.
