I need to survive for 3 days without pooping, and eating as little as possible. I can pee, but not very often. It can't take up too much space. What food do I pack? (lemmy.world)

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.

What the fuck?

[–] Xylinna@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago (2 children)

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.

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

I'm imagining you shipping yourself in a crate to another country and wanting to avoid getting poo all over you 🤣

[–] Wrrzag@lemmy.ml 5 points 2 years ago

I don't have anything to add, I just wanna be part of this.

[–] Neptune014@lemmy.ml 5 points 2 years ago

I dont have any advice. Just wanted to day I was here before the reason was revealed.

[–] downdaemon@lemmy.ml 5 points 2 years ago

hahah ok this is good content

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

Breast milk has very few undigestible solids. Just saying.

I'm honestly more curious about this than I was about any of the locked safes.

[–] fox@lemmy.fakecake.org 5 points 2 years ago

nothing to suggest but i'm absolutely fascinated by your post, op. please post results.

[–] Sleo@lemmy.ca 5 points 2 years ago

This sounds like you're on the hajj and don't want to use the crappy bathrooms and wait till you're in the hotel to poop. I would say drink lots of water, have some nuts and dates, drink some of the juices, stay away from rice and meat dishes. Enjoy the experience while you're there!

[–] breakerfall@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

This is amazing.

1 word: pancakes. Nature's cork.

[–] unomas@lemmy.one 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

pancakes. Nature’s cork.

Nobody's ever said that before.

[–] MajorMajormajormajor@lemmy.ca 5 points 2 years ago (2 children)

You obviously haven't rolled a pancake up into a cylinder and give it the tappy tap up the ol' poop chute eh? You're missing out.

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
