About HyperactiveMiss
Hello!
Ask away! If you'd like to know me better, check out my websites by clicking here and viewing my collective. I always try to give detailed and helpful advice. Please feel free to ask me for advice and DO give me feedback! Reading good comments and knowing that I helped someone out literally puts a smile on my face.
Please be sure to look at the FAQ on my column. If you ask a question similar to one I've already answered, I will most likely reply with the same answer.
Grammar, Punctuation, etc
I think if Advicenators are going to take the time to answer other peoples' questions and give free and helpful advice, the least people could do is use correct grammar, spelling, punctuation, etc when they are asking for help. It's unbelievable how some people TyPe LiKe ThIs, or never use periods, or don't have the time to do a "seempl nd quik speel chek".
Pet Peeve
I think that's totally lame when someone rates you down just because they don't want to accept the truth. It's also annoying if they rate you down, just because they didn't like your answer. Advicenators isn't about hearing what you want to hear. It's about finding the truth. People should be thankful that someone gave their time and effort. They should be thankful their question was even answered at all.
Rating & Feedback
Let me just remind you what each number means when you rate someone. These are OFFICIAL.
1- Pretty Bad Advice
2- Not Harmful, But Not Useful Either
3- Decent Enough Advice
4- Good Advice
5- Really Awesome Advice
I think everyone should give feedback, not just a rating. And feedback should include WHY you gave that person that specific rating. If everyone did that, everyone would probably rate more accurately. Also, the advice giver took the time to answer the question. The least the question asker could do is to give feedback! But unfortunately I guess it's too hard and mind boggling for everyone to do.

This is kind of embarrassing, but I'm concerned that I'm not normal. What is the usual number of bowel movements a person should have per week?
Ag, Thank you!
Don't be embarrassed! I've read somewhere that everyone gets constipated (I'm assuming that's what you mean by bowel movements...unless it's the opposite of constipated) at one time in their life or more. It might be embarrassing, but just remember you're not alone.
I think the "average" amount a person should have bowel movement at least once a day and two would be even healthier. Because just think...all of that food you're eating...it has to go somewhere; not all of it is just vitamins your body absorbs. lol. 1-3 times a day would be healthy. However everyone is different and it could range between 3 a day to 3 a week. If you haven't had a bowel movement for a long time and it's painful for you I advise you to buy those constipation pill type things. They help you go to the bathroom, but you can't use them all the time. It should just help you out and after that the rest is up to you (and by that I mean how you eat).
So what can you do? Drink LOTS of water (to soften it up and help your body pass waste), eat healthy, and eat lots of fiber! Fiber...like salad. It's greens that have fiber and our bodies can't use it, but it does help your bowel movement and get it going. That's why people always tell you to eat your greens.
If you want more information just search it up on google. Here are some links for you already:
