    One figure I saw was that the average person produces “one ounce of poop for each 12 pounds of their body weight”, so the bigger you are, the more full of shit you are.

      Not really. Since you’re larger, your shit as a percentage of body weight doesn’t go up.

      Small people are just as full of shit as large people.

      “28g of poop for each 5.4 kg of their body weight” for the metrically inclined

      I don’t buy it… maybe as an average

      I just started a cutting phase of dieting, 2k calories and I crap way less than when I’m doing a 3K bulk.
