Never.

I don't know if you're going to pass.

Yeah, it can tell us one of two things.

One, what we know absolutely is that

This poop, the one that's the rabbit pellet, has been sitting in your colon longer than any of these other poops because that is your colon's whole job.

It sucks water out of it.

So the longer poop sits in there, whether it's because you decided this was not the right time to go to the bathroom, I'm on a hot date, I'm going to hold it until tomorrow.

Well, the poop that you need to have tomorrow is going to look very differently than the poop you would have had today because you've held it in and now more and more water is going to get sucked out.

And it's going to look differently.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I mean, when you feel that call, that's usually your body's way of saying, hey, I'm helping you.

I'm doing some of the work right now.

Your muscles are contracting.

It is providing you the propulsion.

If you ignore that call, and this is why, I mean, one of the most fundamental things I teach people is,

Don't ignore the call.

Go.

Bring some nice bathroom spray with you if that's what bothers you.

But go at work.
