Check your eligibility What is poop, and what happens when you go to the bathroom? Since everyone’s digestive system is unique, there is no normal number of times for a person to use the bathroom. However, most healthcare professionals agree that the frequency range for normal bowel movements¹ may be as often as three times a day or as infrequent as three times a week. When you have a bowel movement, your body also releases gas. The release of this gas reduces bloating and gives you the feeling that you have lost a little weight. Note, however, that the weight lost from using the bathroom is temporary because the digestive system constantly processes food. You also replace the waste that leaves your body when you poop by eating more food. How long it takes for your body to completely digest food and pass as waste is difficult to estimate. There is no way to track how long it takes for food to pass through the digestive system because every person’s body is unique, and every type of food breaks down differently. Nonetheless, there have been several studies of the digestive process. Experts estimate that when a healthy adult eats a typical meal, it takes about four or five hours for the stomach to empty and around 30 to 40 hours for the waste to pass through the colon.² Your stool is primarily composed of water.³ The rest is made up of undigested food, dead bacteria that aided in the digestion of your food, living bacteria, fats, salts, and other substances released by the intestines and liver. While stool can be up to 75 percent water, the amount varies among individuals according to what they have eaten, how much fluid they consumed, and how long the waste stayed in the intestines. How much weight do you lose when you poop? It has been established that you can lose a small amount of weight when you poop; however, the weight loss is not significant. How much a person you lose varies based on several factors. Also, it is important to understand that it is more complicated than the general assumption that what goes in, must go out. Research on fecal weights has found that a person’s poop can weigh as little as 72 grams (about 2.5 ounces), or as much as 470 grams (about 16 ounces or 4 pounds).⁴ The weight of your stool is mainly dependent on your diet and the frequency of your bowel movements. Now, dropping four pounds simply by using the bathroom sounds like a lot if you’re struggling to lose weight, but it's important to keep that in perspective. The number on your scale will fluctuate according to your bowel movement frequency. In other words, when you are constipated or if you typically only poop every three days, your stool weight will increase a little. But if you usually have a bowel movement two or three times a day, the average weight of each stool is likely to be lower. It’s not possible to determine the exact amount of waste that is in the body at any given time.⁵ Still, researchers estimate that the average adult produces about 128 grams, or 4.5 ounces, every day. The weight of your stool is dependent on several factors. People who are taller or weigh more typically have heavier stools. The more fiber that you consume, the greater the weight of your stool.⁵ Additionally, increasing your fluid intake will typically cause you to produce heavier stools as the increased fluid passes through your body in your waste. The longer you wait to pass a stool, the drier and heavier it can get.
