I poop and it doesn't all come out? What is wrong with me?
17/f
Lately, my poop has been weird. I feel gross talking about it but at this point, I want to know what's up. Basically, I'll poop once, and I know that I have more and I try to poop again, but it won't come out and I feel like it is still up there. I wipe a LOT to make sure it's clean, but then all day I can just feel like something is up there. I don't know what's wrong! I poop when I wake up, usually, and even then I've been having this problem. I pooped a few times in school, and I had the same problem. It's starting to get extremely annoying. What could it be? Help! I used to poop only once, and it all came out and I would wipe and feel great. But now I feel like it's not all coming out and I don't feel light and good when I poop.

You're constipated. Ever since going vegan, I'm never constipated.

Go high carb, low fat, whole foods, plant-based VEGAN! It's not a diet, it's a lifestyle change. I went vegan this year and have lost 40 pounds, with minimal exercise, and eating AS MUCH as I desire bringing down my BMI from 30 to 24. I weigh less now than I did throughout high school, as an overweight teenager, even when I exercised for hours while on Junior Varsity and Varsity sports teams. I went to my annual physical earlier this month, and even my doctor was in shock.
My goal for next year is to lose 30-40 more pounds, I just need to start exercising on a regular basis. Nothing crazy, just 30-60 minutes of jogging, Ballet Beautiful, bike riding.. things like that.
I think it's amazing what I've accomplished so far, just by changing my diet, though. It's a lot easier to go vegan than it seems. I was never vegetarian, I went from being able to eat an entire box of pizza or entire tub of ice cream in one sitting to a full-fledged vegan. I now spend a lot less money on groceries, have more energy (never need caffeine, and never feel lethargic like I used to on a regular basis), have more concentration, am learning to cook, and etc. Try it for a week, that's how I started, and I felt so good that I just kept going, and it's now been 5 months! You can get every nutrient from plant foods, including protein!

The only vitamin you need to supplement is B12, and one I personally recommend is Garden of Life's B12 spray (cause I personally hate swallowing pills, and methylcobalamin is better than cyanocobalamin). You can buy it at any health foods store (Whole Foods, Sprouts, Trader Joe's, etc.), or online.

I agree with Zane. Other factors to consider would be any changes in you activities recently. A change in medications or vitamins.
Vitamins with high doseS of zinc can cause slight constipation. Other things could be the taking of antibiotics, pain relievers and any narcotic base medications. Even over the counter cough syrups.
Any changes in our daily routine can throw off our bodies systems. Generally these are only temporary. If it goes on for to long then it is best to consult a doctor.
I suffer from chronic pain as a result of an auto accident. Several of the medications I take Tto help with the pain cause some constipation. Generally in a day or two my body self corrects and I have no need for a laxative.
As I said if you still have trouble after 3 or 4 days I would suggest you advise your parents. DO NOT TAKE A LAXATIVE WITHOUT A PARENTS CONSENT. If this goes on for a week or more then you may need to see a doctor.

You sound constipated and that happens.
What you should do is try and take a stool softener, Make sure you are getting plenty of fiber in your diet. Fish, Chicken, Tuna and eat plenty of vegetables.
If you don't have regular bowel movements then I would see a doctor as body waste can be toxic to your body.
See a doctor
