Same... 
But I know people who go a lot more (many times a day) or a lot less (once every 2-3 days). This is something I have wondered about too, what exactly is healthy and normal.

Wow to poop only once in 2 weeks would save a lot of time. I go so often I have to set time for it on the blackberry...

Well it sounds like this girl has a horrible diet. And it's not the vegetarian part that's the problem, its that her food choices are terrible. I'm sure at least part of the problem is that she's really not eating properly, vegetarians need to be extremely conscious of eating a balanced diet.
My boyfriend is a vegetarian and he poops A LOT. Me... usually once or twice a day? I think I would die if I didn't go every day...

There is no real 'healthy' frequency. The only thing is that as long as you're removing your bowels when the body calls for it, I think you're fine. Bending biscuits is not a science; it's an instinct.

None of those foods sound particularly fibrous, which helps when it comes to bowel movements.
I usually go 2 - 3 times a day. Then again, I eat a fair bit and have around 50g of fibre a day.
I'd consider once every day to be a a minimum, once every couple days to be borderline healthy. Every 10-15 days? Something's messed up there. Make her a smoothie and slip some Metamucil in it. Do her a favour.

If I only pooped once every two or three weeks, I'd never get any books read!
Seriously, once every two or three weeks is not normal, and it can't be healthy. I'd say two or three times a day is about normal, and once every two or three days probably isn't too uncommon or unhealthy, but a couple times a month? Yikes.

Can't believe I'm posting in here...
From a Web MD article on constipation:

And wikipedia comes through with a fantastic chart:

After the initial bout of Type 1/5 is dealt with I usually end up with Type 4 for the rest of the trip. Something I almost never get at home. Type 1, 2 and 5 definitely conserve the TP compared to 3,4,6 and 7.
Anyone else get travel poop syndrome?

Nobody's mentioned the Oilers in this thread yet?
Where'd your competitive spirit go?

Also, the thing I'm wondering is how much fluctuation in consistency becomes unhealthy? I mean, I like lots of different kinds of food, and some mix with beer better than others.

Wow, I'm on a very similar pooping schedule to Stone Cole.
Twice a day durring the week and once a day on the weekends.
Times are a little different though. Usually at work I poop like I drive:
10 and 2 baby.

I'm really really trying not to die laughing at work.
I'm like StoneCole... get to work, log-in, head to the bathroom. The coffee in the morning before getting on the bus does it.
